adb_network_auto_connect

Scans a specified IP range and automatically connects to ADB-enabled Android devices over the network.

Instructions

Discover and automatically connect to ADB devices on the local network. Combines network scanning with adb connect in one step.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
ipRangeNoIP range to scan (e.g., '192.168.1.1-254')
portNoADB port to probe and connect (1-65535, default 5555)
deviceNoDevice serial (used to determine local subnet for ARP-based discovery)
Behavior2/5

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

Description lacks details on failure behavior, timeouts, permissions, or whether it connects to all found devices or just one. Since no annotations exist, the description should provide more behavioral context beyond basic purpose.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

Single sentence that is clear and to the point, but could benefit from additional structure (e.g., bullet points) for better readability. No wasted words.

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

Completeness3/5

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

Given no output schema and no annotations, description is minimally adequate but lacks behavioral details and usage guidance. Parameter descriptions are sufficient.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema coverage is 100% and parameters are well-described in schema. Description does not add extra meaning beyond summarizing the tool. Baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

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 identifies the tool as combining network scanning with ADB connect for automatic discovery and connection on local network. It distinguishes from sibling tools like adb_connect (requires specific IP) and adb_network_scan (only scans).

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as adb_connect for known IPs or adb_network_scan for just scanning. Missing explicit context or conditions.

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