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.

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 | $0.00017 | $0.00143 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00072 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00003 | $0.00029 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00014 |
Grade A, and why
android-screenshot 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 8d 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
Preferred flow:
- Run
./tools/android screenshot --json. - If the user asked for visual analysis, inspect the saved image with the agent's local image-view capability if available.
- If you need precise element data, also run
./tools/android ui dump --json. - Report what is visible and answer the user's question.
If the command layer fails for screenshot capture, fall back to raw adb only as a last resort.
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.

android-screenshot is a skill published in the GitHub repository amit-nayar/android-adb-skill (23 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 17 tokens to every session and 143 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
