Documentation Overview

Android Security Analyzer

MCP server for static security analysis of Android application source code. Runs on Cloudflare Workers as a remote MCP server over Streamable HTTP.

What it does

Analyzes Android project source files — without building the project — and returns a structured security report. The analysis covers:

Manifest analysis — exported components, dangerous permissions, cleartext traffic, debug flags, backup settings, SDK versions
Gradle/build config — release build misconfigurations, outdated SDKs, suspicious dependencies, hardcoded secrets
Source code (Java/Kotlin) — insecure WebView, SSL/TLS bypass, weak crypto, SQL injection patterns, process execution, insecure file storage, PendingIntent issues
XML configuration — network security config weaknesses, overly broad file provider paths
Secret scanning — API keys, tokens, passwords, private keys, cloud credentials, high-entropy strings

All analysis is regex/pattern-based and runs natively in the Workers runtime with no external tools, Java, or Android SDK required.

Install

Hosted server (recommended for Cline / MCP clients): no local install needed. The server runs at:

https://android-security-analyzer.ako-labs.workers.dev/mcp

Add this URL to your MCP client configuration (see Connecting from an MCP client below).

Local development:

Terminal

npm install

Development

Terminal

npm run dev

This starts a local Wrangler dev server. The MCP endpoint is available at http://localhost:8787/mcp.

Deploy

Terminal

npm run deploy

Deploys to Cloudflare Workers. Requires wrangler authentication (npx wrangler login).

Testing

Terminal

npm test              # Run all tests
npm run test:watch    # Watch mode
npm run typecheck     # TypeScript type checking

Connecting from an MCP client

Add to your MCP client configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "android-security-analyzer": {
      "url": "http://localhost:8787/mcp"
    }

    "android-security-analyzer": {
      "url": "https://android-security-analyzer.ako-labs.workers.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Security Rules

The analyzer implements 53 security rules across 5 categories:

Category	Prefix	Rules	Examples
Manifest	MAN-*	17	debuggable, allowBackup, exported components, permissions
Gradle	GRD-*	9	release config, SDK versions, dependencies, secrets
Source	SRC-*	17	WebView, SSL/TLS, crypto, injection, file storage
XML Config	XML-*	4	network security config, file provider paths
Secret	SEC-*	7	API keys, tokens, passwords, cloud credentials

Each finding includes:

Stable rule ID
Severity (critical/high/medium/low/info) and confidence (high/medium/low)
File path and line number (when determinable)
Evidence snippet
CWE and OWASP Mobile Top 10 mappings
Actionable recommendation

Scoring

Risk score (0-100) is computed from finding severities:

Critical: 9 points
High: 6 points
Medium: 3 points
Low: 1 point
Info: 0 points

The raw sum is normalized against an expected maximum of 50 points.

Limitations

Not a SAST replacement — pattern/regex-based heuristics, not full AST/dataflow analysis
No build required — analyzes raw source, so build-time transforms are not visible
False positives possible — especially for secret scanning and some code patterns
Workers constraints — 128MB memory limit, CPU time limits, no filesystem access
No APK/AAB analysis — source code only
No inter-procedural analysis — patterns are matched per-file, not across call graphs

Security Rules

The analyzer implements 53 security rules across 5 categories:

Category	Prefix	Rules	Examples
Manifest	MAN-*	17	debuggable, allowBackup, exported components, permissions
Gradle	GRD-*	9	release config, SDK versions, dependencies, secrets
Source	SRC-*	17	WebView, SSL/TLS, crypto, injection, file storage
XML Config	XML-*	4	network security config, file provider paths
Secret	SEC-*	7	API keys, tokens, passwords, cloud credentials

Each finding includes:

Stable rule ID
Severity (critical/high/medium/low/info) and confidence (high/medium/low)
File path and line number (when determinable)
Evidence snippet
CWE and OWASP Mobile Top 10 mappings
Actionable recommendation

Scoring

Risk score (0-100) is computed from finding severities:

Critical: 9 points
High: 6 points
Medium: 3 points
Low: 1 point
Info: 0 points

The raw sum is normalized against an expected maximum of 50 points.

Limitations

Not a SAST replacement — pattern/regex-based heuristics, not full AST/dataflow analysis
No build required — analyzes raw source, so build-time transforms are not visible
False positives possible — especially for secret scanning and some code patterns
Workers constraints — 128MB memory limit, CPU time limits, no filesystem access
No APK/AAB analysis — source code only
No inter-procedural analysis — patterns are matched per-file, not across call graphs
