I set it up and tested it using adb & scrpy over USB but there's no reason
you can't do the same tasks using adb/scrcpy over Wi-Fi, if you know how.

Scrcpy itself doesn't care whether the connection is USB or wireless.
Scrcpy relies entirely on ADB.
 a. If ADB can connect to your phone over Wi-Fi (and, it can), then
 b. scrcpy will work the same way.

The problem with Wi-Fi though, and Android, is how you accomplish things
over Wi-Fi varies greatly depending on which Android version you have.

Android 10 and below requires a one-time USB connection to enable ADB over
TCP/IP while Android 11+ added ADB pairing, allowing us to connect without
ever using a USB cable, though the pairing process is a bit more involved.

Here are some screenshots in series using both wired and wireless scrcpy.
I posted these to this newsgroup years ago, during the transition period.

But personally, I've given up on wireless adb/scrcpy because Android makes
it that you MUST touch the phone at least once, which is what I deplore.
