Xcode Build MCP

Build, test, run, and manage Xcode projects and Swift packages via the XcodeBuildMCP server.

When to Use

• User wants to build an iOS/macOS/watchOS/tvOS/visionOS app
• User wants to run tests on simulator or device
• User wants to launch an app on simulator or device
• User mentions "xcodebuild", "swift build", "swift test"
• User wants to scaffold a new iOS/macOS project
• User wants to interact with iOS simulator (tap, type, screenshot)
• User wants to capture logs from simulator or device
• User wants to discover Xcode projects in a directory

Quick Reference

All tools are called via mcporter using the XcodeBuildMCP server:

bunx mcporter call --stdio "xcodebuildmcp" <tool_name> [args...]

Assumes mcporter and xcodebuildmcp are installed globally; bunx runs the installed binaries and does not fetch them.

Session Defaults (IMPORTANT - Set First!)

Before using most build/test tools, you MUST set session defaults:

bunx mcporter call --stdio "xcodebuildmcp" session-set-defaults \
  projectPath="/path/to/Project.xcodeproj" \
  scheme="MyApp" \
  simulatorName="iPhone 16"

Or for a workspace:

bunx mcporter call --stdio "xcodebuildmcp" session-set-defaults \
  workspacePath="/path/to/Project.xcworkspace" \
  scheme="MyApp" \
  simulatorId="DEVICE_UDID"

Check current defaults:

bunx mcporter call --stdio "xcodebuildmcp" session-show-defaults

Clear defaults:

bunx mcporter call --stdio "xcodebuildmcp" session-clear-defaults all=true

Typical Workflows

Build and Test iOS App on Simulator

# 1. Discover projects

# 2. List simulators
bunx mcporter call --stdio "xcodebuildmcp" list_sims

# 3. Set session defaults
bunx mcporter call --stdio "xcodebuildmcp" session-set-defaults \
  projectPath="$(pwd)/MyApp.xcodeproj" \
  scheme="MyApp" \
  simulatorName="iPhone 16"

# 4. Build and run
bunx mcporter call --stdio "xcodebuildmcp" build_run_sim

# 5. Run tests
bunx mcporter call --stdio "xcodebuildmcp" test_sim

UI Testing Flow

# 1. Build and launch app
bunx mcporter call --stdio "xcodebuildmcp" build_run_sim

# 2. Get UI hierarchy (ALWAYS do this before interacting)
bunx mcporter call --stdio "xcodebuildmcp" describe_ui

# 3. Take screenshot for visual reference
bunx mcporter call --stdio "xcodebuildmcp" screenshot

# 4. Interact with elements using coordinates from describe_ui
bunx mcporter call --stdio "xcodebuildmcp" tap x=187 y=423

# 5. Type text
bunx mcporter call --stdio "xcodebuildmcp" type_text text="test@example.com"

Error Handling

Tips

1. Always set session defaults first - Most tools require project/scheme/simulator to be set
2. Use describe_ui before UI interactions - Never guess coordinates from screenshots
3. Check doctor for environment issues - Run doctor if tools aren't working
4. Use preferXcodebuild=true if incremental builds fail - Falls back to standard xcodebuild
