Do I need Xcode installed to use this skill?

Yes, this skill requires macOS 12+ and Xcode Command Line Tools to interface with the iOS simulator via xcrun simctl.

How does semantic navigation differ from coordinate-based tapping?

Semantic navigation uses the accessibility tree (labels, IDs, types) to find elements, making tests significantly more resilient to UI layout changes compared to pixel-based methods.

Does it support physical iOS devices?

This specific skill is optimized for the iOS Simulator environment using Apple's simctl utility, though the navigation logic is based on standard iOS accessibility patterns.

Can this skill be used for CI/CD automation?

Absolutely; all scripts support JSON output modes specifically designed for machine-readable integration into automated build and test pipelines.

Mobile Development

Automates iOS application building, testing, and semantic UI navigation through 21 production-ready scripts.

概要

This skill provides a comprehensive suite of 21 production-ready scripts designed to streamline iOS app development and testing within the simulator environment. By leveraging accessibility-driven navigation instead of fragile pixel coordinates, it enables AI agents to perform complex UI interactions, accessibility audits, and device lifecycle management with high reliability. Whether you are automating CI/CD pipelines, performing visual regression testing, or managing app permissions and push notifications, this toolkit offers a structured, token-efficient interface for complete simulator control.
