SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables developers to automatically build, run, and debug the current iOS project on a booted simulator using XcodeBuildMCP tools, simplifying iteration and troubleshooting.

Core Features & Use Cases

Build + Run: Build and run the current project scheme on a booted iOS simulator and capture logs.
UI Interaction & Inspection: Describe the UI, tap, type, and gesture to inspect on-screen state.
Logs & Diagnostics: Start and collect simulator logs and console output to diagnose runtime behavior.
Use Case: When asked to run an iOS app, the agent boots a simulator, configures session defaults, builds, launches, and allows interactive debugging and log capture.

Quick Start

Discover a Booted Simulator and set session defaults with the MCP toolchain.
Build and run the app on the selected simulator, or launch an already built app for debugging.
Describe the UI, perform taps and text entry, and capture logs as needed.

FAQPage Schema

How do I automate building and running an iOS app on a simulator?▼

Automate iOS app builds and simulator launches using MCP tooling to configure the booted simulator, build your project scheme, and run the app—eliminating manual Xcode steps and enabling scripted debugging workflows.

Can I debug iOS apps directly on a simulator without opening Xcode?▼

Yes, you can debug iOS apps on a booted simulator using XcodeBuildMCP to build, launch, and interact with your app through UI inspection, log capture, and gesture commands without manual Xcode intervention.

What do I need to debug an iOS project with automated tooling?▼

You need a booted iOS simulator, the XcodeBuildMCP toolchain, access to your project scheme, and MCP tools configured to build and launch your app for interactive debugging and log collection.

How do I capture logs and inspect UI state during iOS simulator testing?▼

Start simulator log collection and console capture through the MCP toolchain, then use UI description, tap, type, and gesture commands to interact with your app and diagnose runtime behavior in real time.

Does this work with any iOS project scheme on a booted simulator?▼

The automation works with the current project scheme on any booted iOS simulator, provided XcodeBuildMCP tooling is available and configured to access your build environment and simulator instance.

What's the workflow for setting up automated iOS app debugging on a simulator?▼

Discover and set session defaults on a booted simulator using MCP, build and run your project scheme to launch the app, then use interactive commands for UI inspection, logging, and gesture-based testing.
