connect

Set up a connection to the Frida gadget on an Android device by performing ADB port forwarding. Required before executing any other Frida operations.

Instructions

Connect to the Frida gadget on the device. Performs adb port forwarding (tcp:14725) and connects to the zygisk-gadget. Call this before any other operation.

TDQS

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It discloses the underlying network action (adb port forwarding on tcp:14725) and target (zygisk-gadget). Lacks mention of error handling or side effects, but for a connection tool this is acceptable.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Two sentences, no wasted words. Front-loaded with purpose and key details. Efficient and clear.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given no parameters, presence of output schema (so return info covered), and simple task, the description covers all needed context: what it does, how it does it (port forwarding), and when to call it.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

No parameters defined; baseline score of 4 applies per guidelines. The description does not need to add parameter information, and schema coverage is 100% (trivially).

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Description clearly states verb 'Connect' and target 'Frida gadget' with specific actions (adb port forwarding, zygisk-gadget). Distinguishes itself from sibling tools like 'detach' or 'reconnect' by being the initial connection step.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicitly says 'Call this before any other operation', providing clear ordering context. Does not discuss when not to use or alternative tools, but the directive is strong and sufficient for a setup tool.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
