What is android-adb-skill CLAUDE.md?

Android device-automation rules for using a shared wrapper around ADB, the command-line tool for communicating with Android devices and emulators. They specify when to use structured JSON output and when raw ADB is acceptable.

Use them when taking screenshots, dumping the user interface, waiting for elements, targeting a particular device, or falling back to ADB for operations the wrapper does not support.

They provide a consistent way to run device actions and require the agent to verify the screen or interface state afterward. This reduces mistakes caused by assuming an action succeeded.

Token cost

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00154	$0.00154
Opus 5	$0.00077	$0.00077
Sonnet 5	$0.00031	$0.00031
Haiku 4.5	$0.00015	$0.00015

Security

Grade A, and why

android-adb-skill CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 7d 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Android Skills

Use the shared command layer instead of raw adb when possible:

./tools/android ...

Read docs/command-contract.md for the supported command surface. Read the relevant skills/*/SKILL.md file for task-specific orchestration.

Rules

Prefer ./tools/android ... --json for anything that returns structured data.
Use --device <id> when the user named a target device or when multiple devices are attached.
Verify state after interactions with ./tools/android ui dump, ./tools/android wait element, or ./tools/android screenshot.
Fall back to raw adb only when ./tools/android lacks the needed operation.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
