decompile

decompile is a command for Claude Code from CreditTone/android-reverse-engineering-skill. It costs 15 tokens per session (1,228 once invoked), scanned B, original, Apache-2.0.

A command for taking apart an Android application package—such as an APK, XAPK, JAR, or AAR—and examining its internal structure.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to decompile Android packages, check required tools, install missing dependencies when possible, and perform an initial structure analysis.
Why use it?
It starts the reverse-engineering process for an application when you need to understand how its packaged code and resources are organized.

Command for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is bash skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/check-deps.sh.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade B, and why

decompile scanned grade B with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Decompile an Android application and perform initial structure analysis.

Instructions

You are starting the Android reverse engineering workflow. Follow these steps:

Step 1: Get the target file

If the user provided a file path as an argument, use that. Otherwise, ask the user for the path to the APK, XAPK, JAR, or AAR file they want to decompile.

Step 2: Check and install dependencies

Run the dependency check:

bash skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/check-deps.sh

Parse the output looking for INSTALL_REQUIRED: and INSTALL_OPTIONAL: lines.

If required dependencies are missing, install them one by one:

bash skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/install-dep.sh java
bash skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/install-dep.sh jadx

The install script auto-detects the OS and installs without sudo when possible (user-local install to ~/.local/). If sudo is needed, it will prompt — if the user declines or sudo is unavailable, the script prints exact manual instructions (exit code 2). Show those instructions to the user and stop.

For optional dependencies (INSTALL_OPTIONAL:vineflower, INSTALL_OPTIONAL:dex2jar, INSTALL_OPTIONAL:rizin, etc.), ask the user if they want to install them. Recommend vineflower and dex2jar for better decompilation results, and recommend rizin when JNI or .so analysis is likely.

After any installations, re-run check-deps.sh to verify. Do not proceed until all required dependencies pass.

Step 3: Decompile

Run the decompile script on the target file. Choose the engine based on the input:

  • APK or XAPK → use jadx first (handles resources natively; XAPK is auto-extracted):

    bash skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/decompile.sh <file>
    
  • JAR/AAR and Fernflower is available → prefer fernflower for better Java output:

    bash skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/decompile.sh --engine fernflower <file>

decompile is a command published in the GitHub repository CreditTone/android-reverse-engineering-skill (549 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 15 tokens to every session and 1,228 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (asks for root). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
