XcodeBuildMCP CLI

Use XcodeBuildMCP tools via the xcodebuildmcp executable instead of raw xcodebuild, xcrun, or simctl.

Step 1: Ensure the CLI Exists

Check availability:

xcodebuildmcp --help

If missing, install with one of:

brew tap getsentry/xcodebuildmcp
brew install xcodebuildmcp

npm install -g xcodebuildmcp@latest

Re-check after install:

xcodebuildmcp --help

Step 2: Use Help-First Discovery

Discover workflows and arguments from the CLI itself:

xcodebuildmcp --help
xcodebuildmcp tools
xcodebuildmcp <workflow> --help
xcodebuildmcp <workflow> <tool> --help

Use this discovery path instead of memorizing static tool lists.

Step 3: Keep Execution Minimal

Choose the smallest command sequence that satisfies the request.
Prefer direct workflow commands over manual multi-step chains unless explicitly requested.
For simulator run intent, prefer the combined build-and-run command.
Do not chain build then build-and-run unless explicitly requested.
