About droidsight
droidsight is an MCP server published by the GitHub account edgecasehuman. Drives a real Android device over ADB and attaches the resulting screen to every action.
It runs on your own machine: your AI client starts it from the npm package @edgecasehuman/droidsight at version 1.0.0.
It asks for one secret: DROIDSIGHT_DEVICE_PIN. Give it a key with the least access that still works.
Version 1.0.0 was published on 12 August 2026, and the source code is public, so you can read it before installing.
Written from the registry entry. 9 automated checks on the registry entry and the package code: 7 pass, 0 warn, 0 fail, 2 info. How we check.
What it asks for
| Variable | Required | Secret | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
DROIDSIGHT_DEVICE_SERIAL | No | No | The only Android target the process may use. Required when ADB reports more than one authorized device; the server refuses to guess. |
DROIDSIGHT_ADB_PATH | No | No | Explicit path to the ADB executable. Falls back to ANDROID_SDK_ROOT, ANDROID_HOME, then PATH. |
DROIDSIGHT_LOCAL_ROOT | No | No | Confines host paths used by APK installation and file push/pull. Defaults to the process working directory. |
DROIDSIGHT_DEVICE_PIN | No | Yes | Numeric PIN for UI actions that require automatic unlock. |
DROIDSIGHT_ALLOW_SHELL | No | No | Set to 1 to publish the arbitrary shell and macro tools. Grants authority equivalent to broad ADB shell access. |
DROIDSIGHT_DEBUG_LOG | No | No | Path to a persistent debug log. File logging is otherwise disabled. |
DROIDSIGHT_LOG | No | No | Tracing filter. Defaults to warn, or debug when a debug log path is set. |
DROIDSIGHT_EVENTS | No | No | Set to 1 to start the long-running device event monitor. Requires DROIDSIGHT_DEVICE_SERIAL. |
DROIDSIGHT_SENTINEL | No | No | Set to 1 to start the background enforcement loop. It re-applies watched device state on a timer, including unlocking the screen. Off by default. |
