PreviewAPK is installed from its publisher's own source and answers where it runs, so this marketplace is not in the path of a single call. There is no address here to send one to, and a panel that pretended otherwise would be showing you an answer we made up. Install it and call it from your own client — the Installation tab has the entry for each one.
What it does
Give your AI agent a real cloud Android phone: push APKs, drive it, get screenshots and logs.
Quickstart
# 1 — add it to Claude Code
claude mcp add --scope user --transport http previewapk-mcp https://previewapk.siteport.site/mcp --header 'Authorization: Bearer ${PREVIEWAPK_API_KEY}'
# 2 — ask your agent for something these tools do
# previewapk_list_devices, previewapk_use_device, previewapk_status and 24 more
It needs PREVIEWAPK_API_KEY (Your PreviewAPK API key (starts with pvk_) from your account's Developers card in the portal, sent as a Bearer token): this sends it in the Authorization header from your environment, so export it first — its endpoint answers 401 without it.
PreviewAPK costs nothing on mcprush: there is no plan to choose here, no cap to set and nothing mcprush can bill you for.
Collected from a public index. Nobody has claimed this account, so nothing here was written by its author — claim it if it is yours.
Where are you running it?
Every route below installs the same thing and ends at the same approval screen. Nothing here runs on your machine and nothing runs on ours: this server answers at its publisher’s own address, and what you install is the connection straight to it.
This is a public server: it answers at its publisher’s own address and this marketplace is not in the path. Claude Code registers it in one command; --scope user makes it available in every project. The transport below is http, as the publisher's own manifest declares it. Claude Code reads PREVIEWAPK_API_KEY (Your PreviewAPK API key (starts with pvk_) from your account's Developers card in the portal, sent as a Bearer token) from your environment each time it connects and sends it in the Authorization header — its endpoint answers 401 without it — so the key stays out of its config: export it in your shell profile (macOS, Linux), or run setx PREVIEWAPK_API_KEY … and open a new terminal (Windows).
claude mcp add --scope user --transport http previewapk-mcp https://previewapk.siteport.site/mcp --header 'Authorization: Bearer ${PREVIEWAPK_API_KEY}'Reconnect, or start a new session, and the tools appear in the model’s tool list.
It reaches a system of yours, so it needs your own credential rather than the publisher’s: Authorization header — Your PreviewAPK API key (starts with pvk_) from your account's Developers card in the portal, sent as a Bearer token.. You set it in your own client’s config, on your machine — this marketplace never holds it.
One config entry pointing straight at the publisher’s own address — this marketplace is not in the path, and nothing from this listing executes on your machine.
27 tools, with what each one reads, writes and reaches shown before you agree — the same list on every route above. Read the tool surface.
Tool surface
What the model actually sees. Descriptions are diffed on every release — see version history.
Read from its source code. A server that builds its tool list when it starts can list more tools than this.
List the devices on this account: name, id, profile, Android version, status, attached app. Call this FIRST when the account may have more than one device, then pass the chosen device's name (or id) as the 'device' argument to the other tools.
No parameter schema on file.
Select your working device — the 'cd' of PreviewAPK. After selecting, every other tool talks to this device until you select another or start one (starting also selects). Pass the device NAME (e.g. 'Device 1') or its id, from previewapk_list_devices.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| device | string | yes | device name or id |
State of the owner's PreviewAPK device(s): attached app, session status, driver, links. Also carries the handoff block (a pending request for the human: reason + when), the agent's finish_report once filed, and — exactly once, on the first status read after the human hands the wheel back —…
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| device | string | no | device name or id (optional) |
Upload an APK file from this machine to the device. If the device is OFF it becomes the attached app (then call previewapk_start). If the device is RUNNING and you hold the wheel, the new app is hot-swapped in live — installed and relaunched with no reboot. Returns the parsed app info…
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| path | string | yes | local path to the .apk file |
| replace | boolean | no | allow replacing a newer installed build with an older one (uninstalls first, deleting its data) |
| device | string | no | — |
Start a preview session for the device's attached app. driver='agent': you drive and screenshot; the human watches. driver='user': the human drives in the portal; your input is refused. Returns links info — share the session_url from previewapk_get_links with the human.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| driver | string | no | — |
| device | string | yes | — |
Stop the session. The session link dies with it. (previewapk_feedback files a field report about the tool — what broke, what worked, what you wish it had; reports directly shape what gets fixed and built next.)
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| device | string | no | — |
The share link for the live session (view-only; minted at start, dies when the session ends), plus driver state — including driver_note, which tells you if the user took the wheel.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| device | string | no | — |
Tap the screen. Either coordinates (0..1 fractions of the screen, resolution-independent) or a ref from previewapk_observe: pass ref + snapshot_id and the server re-finds that exact element on the current screen first — if it moved or changed, the call fails with stale_snapshot instead of tapping…
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| x | number | no | — |
| y | number | no | — |
| ref | integer | no | element number from a previewapk_observe snapshot |
| snapshot_id | string | no | the snapshot_id that ref belongs to |
| device | string | no | — |
Swipe from (x1,y1) to (x2,y2), 0..1 fractions. duration_ms optional (default 300).
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| x1 | number | yes | — |
| y1 | number | yes | — |
| x2 | number | yes | — |
| y2 | number | yes | — |
| duration_ms | integer | no | — |
| device | string | no | — |
Send an Android keycode: 4=Back, 3=Home, 187=Recents, 66=Enter, 67=Delete.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| keycode | integer | yes | — |
| device | string | no | — |
Type text into the currently focused field on the device. The field must be focused first (tap it) — the call fails honestly when nothing is focused, instead of typing into the void.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| text | string | yes | — |
| device | string | no | — |
Bring the session's app back to the foreground — after Back exits to the launcher, or the app crashed or was closed. Takes about 2 seconds; no reboot.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| device | string | no | — |
Capture the device's current screen as an image you can see (the real screen — it agrees with the hierarchy). Use it to verify your changes look right. The download resumes automatically if the connection is cut; pass scale=0.5 on weak networks for a quarter-size transfer.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| device | string | no | — |
| scale | number | no | 0.5 = half-size frame (smaller transfer) |
Pass the wheel mid-session: to='user' lets the human drive in the portal (e.g. after you've verified a feature); to='agent' gives control back to you.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| to | string | yes | — |
| device | string | no | — |
Read the attached app's debug log (logcat) from this session — its prints, warnings, errors and crash traces. Check it after actions and whenever something misbehaves: a crash's exact reason is here. Works after the session ends too (the saved tail of the last session).
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| since_seconds | number | no | only lines from the last N seconds |
| lines | integer | no | — |
| errors_only | boolean | no | — |
| contains | string | no | only lines containing this text |
| device | string | no | — |
File a field report about THIS tool — you are one of the few who actually use it, and your report is read and tallied by the team that builds it. Say what broke or behaved unexpectedly (broke), what worked well (worked), what feature you wished it had for your task (wish), and anything you had to…
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| worked | string | no | — |
| broke | string | no | — |
| wish | string | no | — |
| workaround | string | no | — |
| rating | integer | no | overall reliability this session, 1-5 |
| device | string | no | — |
Get the current screen as a UI element tree (class, text, content-desc, resource id, bounds, center coordinates, state flags) instead of pixels. Much faster and cheaper than a screenshot for navigation and assertions: find elements, read values, check state. Use previewapk_screenshot for visual…
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| device | string | no | — |
Tap the element whose visible text matches (exact match preferred, else substring; use index to pick among matches). If several elements match at the same level and no index is given, the call returns an ambiguous_target result with the candidates instead of guessing. Resolves the element's center…
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| text | string | yes | — |
| index | integer | no | — |
| device | string | no | — |
Read the current screen as a compact numbered snapshot: foreground app, keyboard state, screen size, and the useful elements (ref, type, text, desc, id, pixel bounds/center, state flags) in reading order — plus the same snapshot as compact text. Much cheaper than a screenshot and cheaper than the…
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| screenshot | boolean | no | — |
| scale | number | no | screenshot scale, e.g. 0.5 (only with screenshot=true) |
| device | string | no | — |
Run a batch of up to 20 actions in order on the device: tap (x/y fractions, or target {text|id|desc, nth}, or target {ref, snapshot_id}), swipe {x1,y1,x2,y2}, long_press, double_tap, type {text, clear, submit}, key {key: back|home|recents|enter|delete or code}, open_app {package}, close_app…
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| actions | array | yes | — |
| observe | string | no | — |
| device | string | no | — |
Wait until an element is present on screen (or gone, with present=false), polling the UI. Returns {found, waited_ms} — found=false at the timeout is a result, not an error. Use after actions that load content instead of sleeping blind. With condition='driver' instead of an element: wait until the…
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| condition | string | no | 'driver' waits for the handback instead of an element |
| text | string | no | — |
| id | string | no | — |
| desc | string | no | — |
| present | boolean | no | — |
| timeout_s | number | no | — |
| device | string | no | — |
Start recording the device screen to an MP4 (screenrecord; one recording caps at 180s). Stop it with previewapk_record_stop, then download with previewapk_record_download. A recording in progress is stopped and saved automatically if the session ends or the phone reboots.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| name | string | no | a label for the recording |
| device | string | no | — |
Stop the running recording. The MP4 is pulled off the device to the server and indexed (rec_id, size, duration) — download it with previewapk_record_download. Recordings stay downloadable after the session ends.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| device | string | no | — |
Download a finished recording's MP4 to a local file path on this machine (resumable — a cut transfer picks up where it stopped). Omit rec_id to get the session's latest finished recording.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| path | string | yes | local file path to save the MP4 to |
| rec_id | string | no | from previewapk_record_stop (default: latest) |
| device | string | no | — |
Ask the human for a step only a human should do: a password or 2FA code typed on the phone itself, a payment or consent approval, a CAPTCHA, anything sensitive or irreversible. Records the request in the portal (the device card shows 'Your agent needs you') and returns message_for_human — relay it…
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| reason | string | yes | one short line: what the human needs to do (max ~200 chars) |
| device | string | no | — |
File the wrap-up when your work on this session is done, and get back message_for_human — relay it to the human VERBATIM. The counts in it (session duration, actions taken, errors) are composed by the SERVER from the session's real record — never state counts from your own memory instead. The…
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| summary | string | yes | what you tested or checked, in your own words (max ~1000 chars) |
| verdict | string | no | optional overall verdict |
| end_session | boolean | no | also stop the session after filing (default false) |
| device | string | no | — |
Device controls for realistic QA. action='set_timezone' (IANA tz, e.g. America/New_York) — verified on the device. action='set_locale' (BCP 47 tag, e.g. de-DE; package optional, defaults to the session app) — per-app language, Android 13+ style; relaunch the app if it doesn't switch live.…
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| action | string | yes | — |
| tz | string | no | IANA timezone (set_timezone) |
| locale | string | no | BCP 47 tag (set_locale) |

| lon | number | no | — |
| local_path | string | no | file on this machine (push_file: source; pull_file: destination) |
| remote_path | string | no | path on the device, under /sdcard (e.g. Download/fixture.json) |
| device | string | no | — |
- Every tool — any call limit is its publisher’s, not ours
- No card, and mcprush charges nothing for it
- Runs at its publisher’s own address — this marketplace is not in the path
- Nothing to cap, because mcprush bills nothing
What counts against your monthly calls
| Tool | Unit | Calls used | Out of the allowance |
|---|
Nothing here is billable: mcprush charges nothing to install PreviewAPK or to call it, at any volume.
Two independent axes, because powerful and malicious are different questions. The grade is threat only. The capability level is blast radius, and it is never a penalty on the grade — it is priced as one subtract-only term in the score, where you can see it.
This listing is an address its publisher runs, and you connect to it directly — this marketplace is not in the path. The scanner reads packages and public source, and an address is neither: the repository linked on this page is where this record was collected from, not a copy of what the address serves, so it is not graded in its place. So there is no grade — not a withheld one, an unmeasured one.
Release history
This is an address its publisher runs: which release it serves is theirs to choose, so there is nothing here to pin. The history below is for reading; the current release on file is 1.1.1.
No release note was published with this version.
One review per account, from a signed-in account that does not publish this listing. Nothing else is asked — you can say what you think before you install it. Publishers can reply once per review, and a review can be edited or deleted by whoever wrote it.
Any signed-in account that does not publish PreviewAPK can review it, once — before installing it or after. A review from an account that has installed it is marked as one.
Nobody has reviewed this listing. The rating on the card is the mean of the reviews written here and nothing else, so there is no rating until somebody writes the first — which takes a signed-in account that does not publish it, and nothing else.
