apk-reverse

apk-reverse is a skill for Claude Code from iradoweck/antigravity-awesome-skills. It costs 48 tokens per session (3,926 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of apk-reverse, MIT.

A toolkit for examining Android app packages, changing their code or resources, and observing how they behave while running. It is intended for educational work or security assessments with written permission.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for unpacking and decompiling APK files, inspecting or editing smali and native libraries, testing protections such as certificate checks, and repackaging signed apps in an authorized lab.
Why use it?
It helps security testers understand an Android app's compiled code and runtime behavior when the original source is unavailable. Use requires explicit authorization because the same techniques can be misused.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

apk-reverse scanned grade A 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 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/manifest-summary.ps1), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 453 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Bundled upstream support

Supporting files are included at skill-relative paths. See UPSTREAM-NOTICE.md for their pinned sources, licenses, hashes, and import changes.

Supporting material availability

These paths remain unavailable in this catalog copy:

  • <support-root>/scripts/decode.ps1
  • <support-root>/scripts/frida-run.ps1
  • <support-root>/scripts/rebuild-sign-install.ps1

Do not invoke a step that requires one of these files. Obtain the original material and review its dependencies, license, and effects before use. Independent inline steps and the bundled helpers can proceed within the user’s authorized scope.

⚠️ AUTHORIZED USE ONLY This skill is for educational purposes or authorized security assessments only. You must have explicit, written permission from the system owner before using this tool. Misuse of this tool is illegal and strictly prohibited.

Mandatory confirmation gate Before running any command that probes, exploits, changes, persists on, extracts data from, or attempts credential access against a target:

  1. Ask the user to state the exact target URL, IP, account, or resource.
  2. Ask the user to confirm written authorization and the permitted scope.
  3. Show the exact command(s) and explain their expected effect.
  4. Wait for explicit confirmation in the current conversation.

Without that confirmation, remain read-only and provide defensive guidance only. Prefer a sandbox, disposable VM, or controlled lab.

When to Use

  • Analyzing or modifying an Android APK during an authorized assessment.
  • Hooking runtime behavior of an app you own or are cleared to test.

适用范围

当任务属于以下场景时优先使用本 skill:

  • 分析 APK 的 Java 业务逻辑
  • 定位登录、签名、风控、证书校验、root 检测
  • 查看与修改 AndroidManifest.xml
  • 查看与修改 smali
  • 重打包 APK
  • 用 Frida 做 Java/native 动态 Hook
  • APK 内含 .so 时切到 native 分析

当前机器已验证可用的 CLI 工具

  • jadx 1.5.5
  • apktool 3.0.2
  • frida-ps 17.9.6
  • adb
  • java

What ships with it

7 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
