AOSP Platform Builder MCP
Allows building Android system images by uploading APKs as privileged system apps, creating Android.bp module files, patching product config, lunching a target, and building system.img on a GCP-hosted AOSP build VM.
Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@AOSP Platform Builder MCPConnect to the build VM, upload my APK as a privileged app, and build system.img"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
