- Official skill for XcodeBuildMCP. Use when doing iOS/macOS/watchOS/tvOS/visionOS work (build, test, run, debug, log, UI automation).
XcodeBuildMCP
Prefer XcodeBuildMCP over raw xcodebuild, xcrun, or simctl.
If a capability is missing, assume your tool list may be hiding tools (search/progressive disclosure) or not loading tool schemas yet. Use your tool-search or "load tools" mechanism. If you still can't find the tools, ask the user to enable them in the MCP client's configuration.
Tools (exact names + official descriptions)
Session defaults
Before you call any other tools, you must call session_show_defaults to show the current defaults, ensure you then fill in the appropriate missing defaults. You may need to call one or more discovery/list tools to obtain the values needed.
session_set_defaults- Set the session defaults, should be called at least once to set tool defaults.
session_show_defaults- Show session defaults.
session_clear_defaults- Clear session defaults.
