A developer reports progress on an autonomous AI agent that controls an Android phone, publishing a GitHub repository and describing its current capabilities. The project log says the code is a single Python script that connects to Gemma 4 through Ollama’s local API, with no cloud usage and no separate API keys. The script also interfaces with the phone through Android Debug Bridge (ADB), including actions such as opening apps, tapping, and entering text. For command understanding, it takes natural-language instructions (for example, “Open WhatsApp”), sends them to Gemma 4 to break them into structured, step-by-step instructions, and then executes those instructions on the device.
In the update, the author marks the repository creation and the core agent script as completed, adds a README with an overview, and reports that connectivity tests for both the Ollama/Gemma 4 side and the ADB side are working. Parsing into JSON-formatted steps is described as in progress. Planned next steps include using OCR (Tesseract) to detect on-screen text, adding a verification layer to check whether each step succeeds, and testing a full multi-step workflow such as opening an app, locating an element, and tapping it.
