## What it is
A Magisk/KernelSU/APatch module that automatically installs and runs frida-server on boot on rooted Android devices. It stays up to date by hooking into the official Frida build process and supports arm64, arm, x86, and x86_64 architectures.

## Use cases
- run frida-server automatically on boot on a rooted Android device
- set up dynamic instrumentation for Android app reverse engineering
- keep frida-server always up to date on my phone
- install frida via Magisk module for security research
- use frida with KernelSU or APatch instead of Magisk
- hook and analyze Android apps at runtime

## When to choose
- you have a rooted Android device with Magisk, KernelSU, or APatch and need frida-server running persistently
- you want automatic, up-to-date frida-server builds without manual downloads
- you do Android security research or app penetration testing

## When to avoid
- your device is not rooted
- you need Frida on non-Android platforms (use official frida-server binaries instead)
- you cannot install Magisk modules or lack root access
