Part of the AndroJack MCP MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents call android_api17_compliance to retrieve information from AndroJack MCP without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.
Even though android_api17_compliance only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.
Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

Android 17 (API 37) reached platform stability March 26, 2026. Contains breaking changes NOT covered by android_api36_compliance: (1) Static final field reflection via Java reflection or JNI now throws IllegalAccessException/crash on API 37+ targets — affects test code, some DI frameworks, and any code using field.isAccessible=true on final fields. (2) ACCESS_LOCAL_NETWORK permission required for any LAN communication (192.168.x.x, mDNS, SSDP, direct sockets). (3) SMS OTP programmatic access delayed 3 hours — migrate to SmsRetriever.startSmsUserConsent(). (4) Extended large-screen mandate at API 37 — games exemption no longer applies on ≥600dp. (5) NPU feature declaration required for direct NPU access. (6) Handoff API for cross-device activity continuity. Topics: 'overview' (all breaking changes), 'checklist' (migration audit), 'static final' (reflection block), 'local network' (ACCESS_LOCAL_NETWORK), 'sms otp' (3-hour delay), 'npu' (NPU feature), 'handoff' (cross-device).. It is categorised as a Read tool in the AndroJack MCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for android_api17_compliance. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the AndroJack MCP MCP server.
android_api17_compliance is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the android_api17_compliance rule in your Intercept policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for android_api17_compliance. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
android_api17_compliance is provided by the AndroJack MCP MCP server (androjack-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
