| # ABox Android box image |
|
|
| Disk images for the Android box in [ABox](https://boxes.anvilterm.com): an Android tablet that runs on a Mac in QEMU, which AI agents (Claude, Codex, Gemini Live) can see and operate, for app testing, automation and games. |
|
|
| ABox downloads this file once on first use; you normally never fetch it by hand. |
