iOS Simulator MCP Server

Example Use Cases

• 1

  Programmatically inspect the simulator screen and list accessibility elements to validate UI labels and structure.

• 2

  Simulate user interactions (taps, swipes, typing) to exercise and verify app behavior during QA flows.

• 3

  Capture visual evidence (screenshots, compressed view images, video recordings) or install/launch apps on a simulator as part of automated tests.

Description

This MCP server exposes simulator controls and accessibility inspection tools (tap, type, swipe, describe UI, screenshots, video recording, install/launch apps) so agents can interact with iOS Simulator instances programmatically. It is designed to be integrated with MCP clients like Cursor or Claude Code and can be configured via environment variables for filtering tools, output directories, and IDB path. Requires macOS, Xcode/simulators, Node.js and Facebook IDB. The project is open-source (MIT) and includes a security notice about a fixed command-injection vulnerability in older versions.
