Drive iOS simulators from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex by accessibility label instead of screenshot-and-tap-coordinates. Exposes ui_tree, tap_element, type_into_element, wait_for_element and scroll_to_element, and every action reports whether the UI actually changed. A Mac daemon underneath hands out simulators as TTL leases with a queue and keeps a SIGSTOP warm pool, so a lease gets a live simulator in about 0.28s instead of a 7s cold boot, and multiple agents can share one Mac without colliding. Open source, MIT.
Git Mcp is categorized under Developer Tools and uses a local stdio subprocess. In contrast, Manzanas belongs to Developer Tools using local stdio subprocess. Select Git Mcp when you need capabilities focused on developer tools and Manzanas when you require tools for developer tools.
