Can this skill handle Xcode builds and dependencies?

Yes, it has permissions to use xcodebuild for resolving package dependencies and building the application scheme for the target simulator.

Is it possible to test accessibility with this skill?

Absolutely. The skill includes a tool to describe the full accessibility tree, allowing Claude to verify that elements have the correct labels, traits, and identifiers.

How does this skill provide visual feedback to Claude?

It utilizes specialized MCP tools to capture screenshots and video from the iOS Simulator, which Claude then analyzes to verify UI changes, layout, and styling.

Where are the simulator artifacts like screenshots stored?

All visual artifacts are organized within a git-ignored 'ios/.screenshots/' directory, which includes a cleanup script to manage file storage.

What are the main prerequisites for the iOS Engineer skill?

You need a macOS environment with Xcode, Homebrew, pyenv (configured for Python 3.13), idb-companion, and Node.js installed to support the simulator automation tools.

Mobile Development

Empowers Claude to build, test, and refine iOS applications using real-time simulator feedback and automation.

关于

This skill transforms Claude into a senior iOS engineer capable of managing the entire development lifecycle within the iOS ecosystem. It integrates directly with the iOS Simulator via MCP tools, allowing Claude to not only write Swift and Objective-C code but also build apps, launch them in a simulator, capture visual feedback, and perform UI interactions. It is particularly effective for layout verification, accessibility audits, and iterative UI development where visual confirmation is essential to the coding process.
