XcodeBuild MCP bridges Xcode and AI agents, giving them hands-on control of iOS and macOS development tasks. With 82 specialized tools, agents can orchestrate simulator builds, execute unit and UI tests, configure test products for distribution, and interact with real devices when code signing is set up.
Highlights
- Run simulator builds and tests from agent prompts, capture logs and diagnostics
- Manage test products, code signing, and device-based workflows
- Skip macro validation for Swift projects that use custom macros
- Works within your existing Xcode project structure—no extra configuration needed
- Built-in workspace daemon for persistent log capture and debugging
- Supports macOS 14.5+ with Xcode 16.x, Node.js 18+ optional for certain installs
This server is ideal for developers who want agents to handle routine build and test tasks, run integration tests across device simulators, or debug test failures. Install via npm or Homebrew, then connect to your preferred MCP client.
