- 02List Kotlin, KTS, TOML, and manifest files
- 03Browse files grouped by directory
- 04Read individual or multiple files
- 05Block access to sensitive directories
Use cases
- 01Navigate an unfamiliar Android project
- 02Inspect selected source and configuration files
- 03Let Claude analyze Android code safely
MCP support
Provides Claude and other compatible MCP clients with tools to validate Android projects, browse eligible files, and read their contents.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
We haven’t collected a package or remote endpoint for this server. Follow the instructions in the project README.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.

Overview
This project provides a Claude MCP server that enables secure access to Android project files. It allows AI assistants to browse and read source code from Android projects by checking for essential gradle configuration files that validate authentic Android projects.
Key features:
- Project Validation: Ensures directories are valid Android projects by checking for gradle files
- File Browsing: Lists all Kotlin, KTS, TOML files and AndroidManifest.xml grouped by directory
- File Reading: Provides secure access to read individual or multiple files with appropriate filtering
- Security: Prevents access to sensitive directories like .gradle, .git and build folders
This tool is ideal for developers who want to leverage Claude to help them understand, analyze, and work with Android codebases.

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
