I'm pretty sure this will just call itself in a loop. You need to use the absolute path to the wrapped binary to distinguish it from the wrapper.

  Also it's not a binary :-)

  Aah! Yes absolutely right! Using `exec command android-cli` would work I believe

  Nope. I have this alias (a default on my distribution) and it's no loop: alias ls='ls --color=auto'

    Creating an alias is not the same as putting an executable in your $PATH.

      That's true. So an alias won't do it if you use that tool from a script or something.
