Android Reverse Engineering & API Extraction — Claude Code skill
A Claude Code skill that decompiles Android APK/XAPK/JAR/AAR files and extracts the HTTP APIs used by the app — Retrofit endpoints, OkHttp calls, hardcoded URLs, authentication patterns — so you can document and reproduce them without the original source code.
First-class Kotlin support: modern Android apps are Kotlin/KMP, heavily obfuscated with R8. This skill recovers the original Kotlin class names from metadata R8 cannot strip, and extracts APIs from Ktor, Apollo (GraphQL) and Koin — not just the classic Retrofit/OkHttp stack. See Kotlin name recovery below.
Windows / PowerShell support (experimental): The *.ps1 scripts alongside the bash ones are a recent community contribution, still being stabilised. For any issues please open an issue on this repository (not on the contributors' upstream forks): the PowerShell scripts are maintained here by @SimoneAvogadro.

Capability
Description
Fingerprint first (Phase 0)
Triage an APK/XAPK in seconds — detect the framework (Flutter / React Native / Cordova / Xamarin / native-Kotlin), HTTP stack, obfuscation level and native libs before spending time on a full decompile
Decompile
APK, XAPK, JAR, and AAR files using jadx and Fernflower/Vineflower (single engine or side-by-side comparison)
Recover Kotlin names
Rebuild original *Repository / *ViewModel / *UseCase class names from R8-obfuscated binaries using Kotlin metadata that R8 cannot strip
Extract APIs
Retrofit, OkHttp, Volley and modern Kotlin/KMP stacks: Ktor, Apollo (GraphQL), Koin DI — endpoints, hardcoded URLs, auth headers, tokens and HMAC request-signing schemes
Trace call flows
From Activities/Fragments through ViewModels and repositories down to HTTP calls
Analyze structure
Manifest, packages, architecture patterns
Handle obfuscation
R8-resistant path/URL extraction plus strategies for navigating ProGuard/R8 output
Requirements
Required:
Java JDK 17+
jadx (CLI)
Optional (recommended):
Vineflower or Fernflower — better output on complex Java code
dex2jar — needed to use Fernflower on APK/DEX files
See plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/references/setup-guide.md for detailed installation instructions.
This runs the full workflow: dependency check, decompilation, and initial structure analysis.
Natural language
The skill activates on phrases like:
"Decompile this APK"
"Reverse engineer this Android app"
"Extract API endpoints from this app"
"Follow the call flow from LoginActivity"
"Analyze this AAR library"
Manual scripts
The scripts can also be used standalone:
# Check dependencies
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/check-deps.sh
# Install a missing dependency (auto-detects OS and package manager)
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/install-dep.sh jadx
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/install-dep.sh vineflower
# Fingerprint an APK/XAPK BEFORE decompiling (Phase 0 triage):
# framework, HTTP stack, obfuscation level, native libs, notable SDKs
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/fingerprint.sh app.apk
# Decompile APK with jadx (default)
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/decompile.sh app.apk
# Decompile XAPK (auto-extracts and decompiles each APK inside)
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/decompile.sh app-bundle.xapk
# Decompile with Fernflower
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/decompile.sh --engine fernflower library.jar
# Run both engines and compare
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/decompile.sh --engine both --deobf app.apk
# Find API calls — defaults to a full scan across every supported stack
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/find-api-calls.sh output/sources/
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/find-api-calls.sh output/sources/ --retrofit
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/find-api-calls.sh output/sources/ --urls
# Modern Kotlin/KMP stacks and obfuscation-resistant extraction
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/find-api-calls.sh output/sources/ --ktor # Ktor client
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/find-api-calls.sh output/sources/ --apollo # Apollo / GraphQL
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/find-api-calls.sh output/sources/ --paths # quoted path literals that survive R8 inlining
Kotlin name recovery (R8 deobfuscation)
Most real-world Kotlin/KMP apps ship through R8, so the decompiled classes come
out as a.b.c. R8 renames the JVM symbols but cannot strip the Kotlin
metadata strings — the Kotlin runtime (reflection, coroutines) needs the
original fully-qualified names at runtime. This skill mines those
@DebugMetadata / @Metadata annotations to rebuild an obfuscated → real
class-name map. On a typical app it recovers ~100 % of the
*Repository / *ViewModel / *UseCase / *Impl classes you actually want to
read.
# 1. Build the mapping from the decompiled sources
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/recover-kotlin-names.sh output/sources/ output/names/
# → output/names/mapping.tsv, mapping.json, by_package/
# 2. Query it: resolve an obfuscated name, search by real name, or grep
# the sources with each hit annotated with its recovered class name
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/lookup-name.sh output/names/ LoginRepository
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/lookup-name.sh output/names/ -o a.b.c
bash plugins/android-reverse-engineering/skills/android-reverse-engineering/scripts/lookup-name.sh output/names/ --grep 'login' output/sources/
