# Android Reverse Engineering & API Extraction
This skill provides a structured workflow to:
- decompile Android artifacts (APK/XAPK/JAR/AAR)
- trace call flows from entry points to network layers
- extract and document HTTP APIs (Retrofit endpoints, OkHttp calls, hardcoded URLs, auth patterns)
## Prerequisites
- Java JDK 17+
- `jadx` (CLI)
- Optional (recommended): Vineflower/Fernflower, dex2jar
## Workflow (high-level)
1. **Decompile**
- Use `jadx` first for a broad pass (resources + sources)
- Use Fernflower/Vineflower for better Java output on tricky code; compare when needed
2. **Analyze structure**
- Identify launcher Activity, Application class, and DI setup
- Map packages: `api`, `network`, `data`, `repository`, `service`, `retrofit`, `http`
3. **Trace call flows**
- UI entry point → ViewModel/Presenter → Repository → API service → HTTP client call
4. **Extract APIs**
- Retrofit: interface annotations (`@GET`, `@POST`, …)
- OkHttp: `Request.Builder`, `HttpUrl`, interceptors
- URLs: string literals (`http://`, `https://`) and base URL builders
5. **Document endpoints**
Use this template for each endpoint you discover:
```markdown
### `METHOD /path`
- **Source**: `com.example.api.ApiService` (ApiService.java:42)
- **Base URL**: `https://api.example.com/v1`
- **Path params**: `id` (String)
- **Query params**: `page` (int), `limit` (int)
- **Headers**: `Authorization: Bearer <token>`
- **Request body**: `{ "email": "string", "password": "string" }`
- **Response**: `ApiResponse<User>`
- **Called from**: `LoginActivity → LoginViewModel → UserRepository → ApiService`
```
## Notes
This repository also ships a **Claude Code plugin** implementation (scripts, references, and the `/decompile` slash command) under:
