## Purpose

Source: AI-written repository summary; verify against source.

> JADX is a Dex-to-Java decompiler that converts Android bytecode (APK, dex, aab, apks, apkm, xapk) and Java bytecode (jar, class, aar) into human-readable Java source code, with additional features for decoding AndroidManifest.xml and resources.arsc.

## Main parts

> Build & Configuration: Gradle build system, dependency management, and code quality tools
Evidence: AI-written saved map.

## Evidence gaps

> Dependencies were not checked for known security issues. That does not mean there are none.
> RepoPilot has not run the setup commands or tests.
> No public API or start-up file could be picked out from the file names.
> 2 suggested change patterns have no matching file and are left out.
> Runtime versions and other prerequisites were not captured.
> Root development commands were not established. Check the root manifest and contributor guide.
> Setup has not been executed. Environment variables, external services and command order may require additional source documentation.

## Further evidence

This brief can be used without a connection. If RepoPilot is connected, its hosted MCP endpoint is https://repopilot.app/api/mcp.

- Concise brief: analyze_repo {"repo":"skylot/jadx"}
- Full reference: get_artifact {"repo":"skylot/jadx"}
- For a concrete task, call plan_repo_task with this repository, the task, and your actual checkout SHA when known. Compare returned analyzed_sha and evidence_gaps before relying on its file guidance.
- Follow the tool result's next_actions for more evidence. A missing result or unknown revision remains unverified.

Before you rely on it

  • Dependencies were not checked for known security issues. That does not mean there are none.
  • RepoPilot has not run the setup commands or tests.

Optional: connect RepoPilot over MCP so your agent can look things up itself.
