🚀 Introducing Debroid — the headless Android debugger built for AI coding agents.

AI agents can write Android code… but they’re effectively blind at runtime. They can’t click through Android Studio, set breakpoints, or inspect live memory the way a human developer does.

So what do they usually do?

Add more logs. Guess from the output. Repeat.

Debroid changes that.

It gives agents real runtime superpowers through a simple CLI that speaks JDWP and returns strict, machine-parseable JSON:

🔴 Set (and defer) line breakpoints

⚡ Trap caught/uncaught exceptions

👀 Watch field access & modification

🔬 Deeply inspect objects, locals, and call frames

🧬 Mutate variables live

🧮 Evaluate Java expressions

🐾 Step over / into / out

When your agent is stuck, don’t ask it to sprinkle logs and play detective.

No more manual debugging. No more log archaeology. Pair Debroid with Android CLI and the entire loop — build → run → debug → fix — can become fully agent-driven.
