Does MobAI require an internet connection to control devices?

No, the MobAI skill communicates with a local HTTP API running on your machine (default port 8686), ensuring low-latency control and privacy.

When should I use the native-runner versus the web-runner?

Use the native-runner for mobile app UI elements like the Settings app or browser navigation bars. Use the web-runner only when you need to interact with the DOM content (HTML/CSS) inside a browser window or WebView.

Which mobile platforms are supported by MobAI?

MobAI supports both Android and iOS devices, including physical devices and simulators/emulators connected to your local environment.

How are screenshots handled in MobAI?

Screenshots are automatically captured during API calls and saved to a local directory (/tmp/mobai/screenshots/), providing paths that Claude can read to analyze the UI.

Can I use MobAI for automated UI testing?

Yes, MobAI is specifically designed for complex automation tasks, offering DSL batch execution and element predicates that make it ideal for E2E testing workflows.
