Android MCP Server
A powerful, modular Android application that implements a Server-Sent Events (SSE) Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. This application enables AI assistants to safely and securely interact with Android device capabilities through a standardized protocol.
Features
✨ Core Capabilities
- 🔌 SSE-Based MCP Server: Runs as an Android foreground service using Ktor
- 🧩 Modular Architecture: Pluggable tool modules for different device capabilities
- 🔐 Privacy-Focused: Each tool requires explicit user permission with clear disclaimers
- 🔑 Bearer Token Authentication: Secure connections with authentication tokens
- 🎛️ Dynamic Tool Management: Enable/disable tools at runtime with user consent
- 🤝 External Tool Support: Third-party apps can expose MCP tools via Content Providers
Built-in Tools
- 📱 SMS: Send SMS messages (requires permission)
- 📱 SMS Intent: Send SMS via Intent (no permission required)
- 📷 Camera: Access camera and take photos
- 👥 Contacts: Read contacts list
- 📡 Sensor: Access device sensors (accelerometer, gyroscope, etc.)
- 📁 Files: Browse and read files on the device (requires permission)
- 🎯 Ads: Display ads (example tool)
- 🔌 External Tools: Auto-discover and integrate tools from other apps
On-device AppFunctions (experimental)
On Android 16 and newer, Phone MCP also publishes its first-party capabilities as native Android AppFunctions. Authorized on-device agents can use these functions locally without starting the MCP server or connecting with its URL and bearer token.
- Play build: contacts, camera, location, sensor snapshots, bounded file access, and SMS drafts
- Full build: the Play functions plus direct SMS sending
- User control: the existing tool switches enable or disable access through both MCP and AppFunctions
- Permissions: Android’s Contacts, Camera, Location, Storage, Notifications, and SMS permissions still apply
- Availability: AppFunctions are experimental, and Gemini integration is currently a limited private preview; installing Phone MCP does not guarantee assistant access yet
AppFunctions use Android’s caller authorization and do not use the MCP server’s token. Open On-device assistants on Phone MCP’s home screen for an in-app explanation, or see the AppFunctions guide for the security model, example prompts, flavor differences, and ADB testing instructions.
