SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill automates the build, test, and diagnostics workflow for iOS projects using Xcode. It reduces manual steps and ensures repeatable, reliable results across teams.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • List schemes in a project and select a default scheme for builds.
  • Build projects or workspaces and capture build logs, time, and outcomes.
  • Run unit/UI tests, collect results, and report failures with actionable details.
  • Clean builds, fetch build settings, and perform archiving/export when preparing releases.
  • Use Case: Imagine a feature branch that needs a quick end-to-end validation: list schemes, build, test, archive, and review logs in one pass.

Quick Start

Install and enable the Xcode MCP integration. Then run a typical flow: xcode_list_schemes xcode_build --scheme <name> --configuration Debug xcode_test --scheme <name> xcode_archive --scheme <name> --export
