Third-Party Software Notices

This plugin is licensed under the Apache License 2.0. That license covers only the plugin's own files (instructions, reference docs, and scripts).

The plugin does not bundle or redistribute any third-party software. Its scripts invoke tools that you install yourself, either manually or through install-dep.sh / install-dep.ps1, which download them from their official upstream sources or your system package manager. Each tool is distributed by its own authors under its own license, and your use of it is governed by that license, not by this plugin's.

Tool Used for License Project
jadx DEX/APK to Java decompilation (default engine) Apache-2.0 https://github.com/skylot/jadx
Vineflower Java decompilation (Fernflower fork) Apache-2.0 https://github.com/Vineflower/vineflower
Fernflower Java decompilation (JetBrains) Apache-2.0 https://github.com/JetBrains/fernflower
dex2jar DEX to JAR conversion Apache-2.0 https://github.com/ThexXTURBOXx/dex2jar
Apktool Android resource decoding (optional) Apache-2.0 https://apktool.org/
Android SDK Platform-Tools (adb) Pulling APKs from a device (optional) Android Software Development Kit License https://developer.android.com/tools/releases/platform-tools
Java (OpenJDK 17+) Runtime required by the tools above GPL-2.0 with Classpath Exception (varies by distribution) https://openjdk.org/

When install-dep uses a package manager (Homebrew, apt, dnf, pacman, winget, scoop, Chocolatey), the package comes from that manager's repositories and under its maintainers' packaging terms.

Licenses listed here are provided for convenience and may change upstream; the license published by each project is authoritative.
