toggle_wifi · Enhanced ADB MCP Server MCP: Risk & Policy

WHAT IT DOES

What toggle_wifi does on Enhanced ADB MCP Server

AI agents invoke toggle_wifi to trigger actions in Enhanced ADB MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why toggle_wifi needs a policy

This tool modifies the WiFi state on an Android device, which is an external operation with real consequences. Disabling WiFi could disrupt network connectivity for all apps and services on the device. While potentially reversible, it triggers a hardware/OS-level operation and falls under Execute rather than Write since it affects system state and external connectivity rather than stored data.

From the tool's definition 'Enable or disable WiFi' — triggers an external device operation that changes network connectivity state
