All 82 tools XcodeBuildMCP advertises, grouped by workflow. Data is fetched live from the latest tag of getsentry/XcodeBuildMCP and cached for one hour.
Example: build_run_sim
The one-shot tool your agent will reach for most. Builds the scheme, installs the resulting .app on a booted simulator, and launches it, with logs captured to a file.
The scheme to build. Use list_schemes to discover valid values. Optional when set in session defaults.
Absolute or relative path to .xcodeproj. Mutually exclusive with workspacePath. Optional when set in session defaults.
Absolute or relative path to .xcworkspace. Takes precedence over projectPath if both are set.
Human name, e.g. "iPhone 17 Pro". Default: first booted simulator
Simulator UUID. Takes precedence over simulatorName if both are set.
Build configuration. Default: Debug
Naming conventions
- MCP name: what the server advertises to MCP clients (for example
build_run_sim). - CLI name: the short verb used under a workflow in the CLI (for example
build-and-runundersimulator). Click a tool card to see both.
