Jadx - Android APK Decompiler
You are helping the user decompile Android APK files using jadx to convert DEX bytecode into readable Java source code for security analysis, vulnerability discovery, and understanding app internals.
Tool Overview
Jadx is a dex to Java decompiler that produces clean, readable Java source code from Android APK files. Unlike apktool (which produces smali), jadx generates actual Java code that's much easier to read and analyze. It's essential for:
- Converting DEX bytecode to readable Java source
- Understanding app logic and control flow
- Finding security vulnerabilities in code
- Discovering hardcoded credentials, API keys, URLs
- Analyzing encryption/authentication implementations
- Searching through code with familiar Java syntax

apktool
Android APK unpacking and resource extraction tool for reverse engineering. Use when you need to decode APK files, extract resources, examine AndroidManifest.xml, analyze smali code, or repackage modified APKs.
237nmap
Professional network reconnaissance and port scanning using nmap. Supports various scan types (quick, full, UDP, stealth), service detection, vulnerability scanning, and NSE scripts. Use when you need to enumerate network services, detect versions, or perform network reconnaissance.
71telnetshell
Use telnet to interact with IoT device shells for pentesting operations including device enumeration, vulnerability discovery, credential testing, and post-exploitation. Use when the user needs to interact with network-accessible shells, IoT devices, or telnet services.
24picocom
Use picocom to interact with IoT device UART consoles for pentesting operations including device enumeration, vulnerability discovery, bootloader manipulation, and gaining root shells. Use when the user needs to interact with embedded devices, IoT hardware, or serial consoles.
23onvifscan
ONVIF device security scanner for testing authentication and brute-forcing credentials. Use when you need to assess security of IP cameras or ONVIF-enabled devices.
23ffind
Advanced file finder with type detection and filesystem extraction for analyzing firmware and extracting embedded filesystems. Use when you need to analyze firmware files, identify file types, or extract ext2/3/4 or F2FS filesystems.
