Does axe support scrolling?

Yes, it supports scrolling through the 'swipe' command, where you can define precise start and end coordinates to move the screen up, down, left, or right.

Can this skill handle multiple running simulators?

Yes, it is designed to work with specific UDIDs to ensure commands are sent to the correct device when multiple simulators are booted.

What should I do if the UI tree returns as empty?

If 'describe-ui' returns an empty tree, it often indicates a simulator state error. The recommended fix is to shutdown and reboot the simulator using xcrun simctl.

What are the prerequisites for using the axe skill?

You must have Xcode installed with at least one iOS Simulator configured, and the 'axe' CLI must be installed and available in your system's PATH.

How does axe interact with UI elements?

Axe prefers using accessibility labels or identifiers to find elements, making tests more resilient. However, it also supports coordinate-based tapping for elements like tab bars.

Mobile Development

Automates iOS simulator interactions using accessibility APIs for seamless UI testing and app control.

概要

The axe skill empowers Claude to interact directly with iOS Simulators by leveraging accessibility APIs to perform programmatic UI automation. It provides a comprehensive suite of commands for tapping elements by label or ID, executing precise swipe gestures, typing text, and capturing screenshots. This skill is particularly valuable for mobile developers and QA engineers who need to explore UI hierarchies via the accessibility tree, debug layout issues, and automate repetitive testing workflows directly from their coding environment.
