Quick brief

Use jadx when the task is to convert an Android APK into readable source for inspection, not when a user is simply using Android tooling normally. The agent workflow is specific: load the APK, decompile Dalvik bytecode into readable source, and inspect code paths, resources, or app behavior clues. That scope boundary, APK-to-readable-source analysis, keeps this narrower than a generic Android tooling or product card.
