v0.2.0

Android MCP v0.2.0

Changes

• Manifest updated to uv server type — aligns with Claude extensions format; server.type changed from python to uv, entry point cleaned up
• User-configurable settings — device serial, connection type (auto/usb/wifi), and screenshot compression can now be set directly from the Claude extension UI
• UV_NO_SYNC env flag — prevents redundant dependency syncs on each launch

Install / Update

uvx android-mcp

Or update via pip:

pip install --upgrade android-mcp
