1. Setup Steps
If you delegate simulator tasks to sub-agents, make sure they have MCP permissions.
-
Find a booted simulator Use
list-devices. Filter for entries withplatform: "ios"— booted iPhones are listed first. If none are booted, callboot-devicewithudid: <chosen UDID>. -
Verify connection All interaction tools (
gesture-tap,gesture-swipe,gesture-custom, etc.) auto-start the server if not already running.
2. Notes
- UDIDs look like:
