ADBKeyBoard

ADBKeyBoard installs itself as an Android input method that receives text from the Android Debug Bridge rather than from a touch keyboard. Once it is selected as the active keyboard, a computer connected over ADB can send broadcast intents carrying text, and that text is inserted into whichever field currently holds focus on the device.

The practical use is automation and remote entry. Test scripts, batch jobs, and shell one-liners can fill in login forms, search boxes, and other fields without a person tapping the screen. Because input arrives as text sent from the host, it also handles characters that are awkward to reach through the standard ADB input command, including non-ASCII text and longer passages entered in one operation.

The application draws no key layout for on-device typing; while it is active, the user types from the host machine, not from the phone. It is packaged for Android only and released under GPL-2.0-only.
