Device Interaction

Apple's protocol for verifying iOS app behavior on a simulator or device: session lifecycle, capturing screenshots and UI hierarchies, synthesizing taps, swipes, and typing via hierarchy center coordinates, and judging functional vs visual vs transient issues. Use when verifying that UI changes work on a device, debugging touch issues, or asked 'does it work'. Requires the xcode-tools MCP server and an iOS 27+ simulator runtime. (Content extracted from your local Xcode on install.)

File contents

device-interaction (stub)

Not yet extracted. This is a stub. The real skill is Apple-authored content that ships inside Xcode; Apple's license doesn't permit redistributing it, so this kit extracts it from YOUR Xcode instead.

To install the real content (requires Xcode 27+, ~5 seconds), run the extraction script that ships alongside these skills. Relative to this skill's own directory it is at:
../apple-api-updates/scripts/extract-apple-skills.sh
(In the Claude Code plugin layout it is also exposed at the plugin root as scripts/extract-apple-skills.sh. If apple-api-updates is not installed alongside, install it — the script ships inside it.)

If you are an agent reading this: resolve this SKILL.md's path and run that script with your shell tool. Skill bodies are cached for the session and you cannot run /reload-plugins yourself (it's a user command), so after extracting: answer the current request by reading the extracted SKILL.md and its references/ directly from disk (plain markdown, fully usable), and ask the user to run /reload-plugins — or start a new session — so future invocations serve the real content.
