    A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for interacting with iOS simulators. This server allows you to interact with iOS simulators by getting information about them, controlling UI interactions, and inspecting UI elements.

    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.
