The @mcp.tool() decorator registers this function as an MCP tool, defining its schema implicitly via the function signature (app_path: str) -> str.
@mcp.tool() def install_app(app_path: str) -> str: """Install an App APK on the connected Android device""" result = subprocess.run(["adb", "install", app_path], capture_output=True, text=True) if result.returncode != 0: raise RuntimeError(f"Error installing App: {result.stderr}") return f"App '{app_path}' has been installed successfully."
