Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00023 | $0.00644 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00258 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00129 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00064 |
Grade A, and why
android-adb-terminal 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 2mo 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.

Android ADB Automation 📲⌨️
Expert commands and scripts for seamless Android device interaction and debugging.
⚡ When to Use
- App Installation: Installing APKs or bundles.
- Logcat Debugging: Filtering and searching system logs.
- Device Interaction: Typing text, tapping buttons, or swiping via shell.
- Data Cleanup: Clearing application data or cache.
- Screen Captures: Taking screenshots or recording videos.
- Port Forwarding: Connecting local servers to the device.
🛠️ Essential Commands
1. Device Discovery
adb devices
adb get-serialno
2. Package & Activity Management
- Force Stop:
adb shell am force-stop <package_name> - Launch Activity:
adb shell am start -n <package_name>/<activity_name> - Clear Data:
adb shell pm clear <package_name> - List Installed Packages:
adb shell pm list packages | grep <filter>
3. Screen Interaction (Agent Favorites)
- Type Text:
adb shell input text "HelloAgent" - Tap Coordinate:
adb shell input tap 500 500 - Back Button:
adb shell input keyevent 4 - Unlock Device:
adb shell input keyevent 82
4. File Transfers
adb push local_file /sdcard/remote_path
adb pull /sdcard/remote_path local_destination
📜 Advanced Automation
Port Forwarding (Connect Host to Device)
adb forward tcp:8080 tcp:8080
Port Reverse (Connect Device to Host - e.g. Local Backend)
adb reverse tcp:3000 tcp:3000
Advanced Logcat Filtering
adb logcat -v time *:E # All errors with timestamps
adb logcat MyTag:D *:S # Show 'MyTag' debug only, silent for everything else
🧪 Scripting Patterns
Wait for Device Online
adb wait-for-device
Get Screen Dimensions
adb shell wm size
Take and Pull Screenshot
adb shell screencap -p /sdcard/screen.png
adb pull /sdcard/screen.png ./screenshot.png

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.
