Automates iOS and macOS application lifecycles using native xcodebuild and simctl command-line tools.
This skill empowers Claude to manage the complete development workflow for Apple platforms directly through the terminal. It provides specialized knowledge for building applications, managing simulator instances, running unit and UI tests, and capturing debug logs using native tools like xcodebuild and xcrun simctl. It is particularly useful for developers working in headless environments, setting up CI/CD pipelines, or those who prefer a command-line-first approach to Apple ecosystem development without relying on the Xcode IDE interface.
