Question

Hello, I'd like to deploy a specific version of the MCP service (version 4.1.0) on a Linux system. I've noticed that the default command-line installation method (e.g., via pip, npm, or the package manager) only fetches the latest version, 6.0.0. Is there an officially supported way to install or downgrade to a specified historical release, particularly 4.1.0? For instance, are there separate installation scripts for different versions, or can I specify a version number in the installation command? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Environment (if relevant)

• JADX Version: [e.g. 1.5.2]
• Plugin Version: [e.g. 4.1.0]
• OS: [e.g. Ubuntu 24.04]

Check the releases for the specific version, from their you download previous versions and manually install as well. https://github.com/zinja-coder/jadx-ai-mcp/releases

I'd like to ask about installing the jadx-ai-mcp plugin on a Kylin server. Currently, the only installation command available is jadx plugins --install "github:zinja-coder:jadx-ai-mcp", which installs the latest version. Is it possible to use this command to install a specific version of the plugin instead?

[zinja-coder]

Yes, you can download specific version from releases and enter full path of .jar file. For example jadx plugins --install-jar /path/to/jadx-ai-mcp-<version>.jar.

I currently have another issue. When using the jadx_mcp_server tool to analyze the content of the application.properties file inside a JAR package, the model called get_resource_fileand get_application_properties, but encountered the problem shown in the image. How can this be resolved?

[zinja-coder]

This is a new issue I've seen. Will look into it once I get some time.

I currently have another issue. I want to load multiple different samples in the same Kylin using jadx-gui. Can I specify the jadx-ai-mcp plugin to load multiple different APKs on different ports and use the jadx_mcp_server function to achieve this? Is this idea feasible?

[zinja-coder]

You have to spawn new instances of jadx to achieve this.
