# Send xcodebuildmcp to your agent
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
## Fast path
- Download the package from Yavira.
- Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
- Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
## Suggested prompts
### New install

```text
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
```
### Upgrade existing

```text
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
```

## Documentation

### Overview

Use the xcodebuildmcp toolset to build/run/test apps, manage simulators/devices, automate UI, and capture logs/screen media. Default to a safe, repeatable flow: discover → set defaults → execute → verify.

### Prereqs & MCP Setup

This skill assumes the XcodeBuildMCP server is installed and exposed to your MCP client so the tools appear (e.g., mcp__xcodebuildmcp__build_run_sim). If the tools are missing, follow the setup steps in:

references/mcp-setup.md (requirements + MCP client config examples)

### Example Requests

"Build and run the iOS app on the latest simulator and take a screenshot."
"Run unit tests on the simulator and share the failing test logs."
"Open the simulator, navigate to Settings, and toggle Dark Mode."
"Install and launch the app on my connected iPhone."

### Quick Start (common flow)

Discover the project/workspace and schemes:

mcp__xcodebuildmcp__discover_projs
mcp__xcodebuildmcp__list_schemes



Set session defaults (so subsequent tools don’t need repeated params):

mcp__xcodebuildmcp__session-set-defaults (workspacePath/projectPath, scheme, simulatorId/deviceId)



Run the task:

Build/run: mcp__xcodebuildmcp__build_run_sim or mcp__xcodebuildmcp__build_run_macos
Tests: mcp__xcodebuildmcp__test_sim / mcp__xcodebuildmcp__test_macos / mcp__xcodebuildmcp__test_device



Verify and gather evidence:

mcp__xcodebuildmcp__screenshot (sim)
mcp__xcodebuildmcp__start_sim_log_cap → mcp__xcodebuildmcp__stop_sim_log_cap

### Task Index

Build/Run: iOS simulator, macOS, device installs
Testing: simulator/macOS/device
Simulator management: list/boot/erase/appearance/location/gestures
UI automation: describe UI → tap/type/swipe/gesture
Logs & debugging: sim logs, device logs, LLDB attach/breakpoints
Media: screenshots, screen recording

Load references/workflows.md for detailed step-by-step sequences and command patterns.

### Operating Rules

Always call mcp__xcodebuildmcp__describe_ui before coordinate-based taps/swipes/long-press.
Prefer mcp__xcodebuildmcp__session-set-defaults early to reduce parameter noise.
If user didn’t specify target device/simulator, list options and ask (or pick a sensible default with useLatestOS).
Avoid destructive actions (erase sims, clean) unless the user asked for them.
