# iOS Simulator Debugger Use XcodeBuildMCP for simulator control, build/run, UI inspection, screenshots, interaction, and logs. ## Workflow 1. Discover a booted simulator with `mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__list_sims`. If none is booted, ask the user to boot one unless they asked you to boot it. 2. Set defaults with `mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__session-set-defaults`: `projectPath` or `workspacePath`, `scheme`, `simulatorId`, optional `configuration: "Debug"` and `useLatestOS: true`. 3. Build/run with `mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__build_run_sim` when requested. If the build fails, inspect output and retry only when justified, optionally with `preferXcodebuild: true`. 4. After a successful run, verify launch with `mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__describe_ui` or `mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__screenshot` before UI interaction. 5. If only launch is requested, use `mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__launch_app_sim`. If bundle id is unknown, call `mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__get_sim_app_path` then `mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__get_app_bundle_id`. ## Interaction - Describe before acting: `mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__describe_ui`. - Tap by `id` or `label` first; coordinates only when needed. - Type after focusing a field with `mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__type_text`. - Use `mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__gesture` for scrolls and edge swipes. - Capture visual proof with `mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__screenshot`. ## Logs Start capture with `mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__start_sim_log_cap` and the app bundle id. Stop with `mcp__XcodeBuildMCP__stop_sim_log_cap` and summarize important lines. For console ou
