File contents

xcode-cli Skill

Interact with Xcode through the xcode-cli CLI backed by the Xcode MCP bridge.

Prerequisites

Xcode 26.3 or later is installed and open with the target project
xcode-cli is installed: npm install -g xcode-cli
Bridge running: xcode-cli-ctl install (background) or xcode-cli-ctl run (foreground)

Commands

All commands: xcode-cli <cmd> [args]. When run from a project directory the matching Xcode tab is auto-selected. Use --tab <tabIdentifier> to override, or run xcode-cli windows to list available tabs. Add --json for JSON output.

Command	Usage	Notes
`windows`	`windows`	List tabs/workspaces; get `tabIdentifier`
`status`	`status`	Quick project status (windows + issues)
`build`	`build`	Build project
`build-log`	`build-log --severity error`	View build errors
`run`	`run`	Build first, then run if build succeeds; returns JSON with build errors on failure
`run-without-build`	`run-without-build`	Run without building (like Ctrl+Cmd+R)
`issues`	`issues --severity error`	Navigator issues
`file-issues`	`file-issues "MyApp/Sources/MyFile.swift"`	Single-file diagnostics, no full build
`test`	`test all` / `test list [--json]` / `test some "Target::Class/method()"`	Run/list tests
`preview`	`preview "MyApp/Sources/MyView.swift" --out ./out`	SwiftUI preview (requires `#Preview` macro)
`snippet`	`snippet "MyApp/Sources/File.swift" "print(expr)" --purpose "Inspect value"`	Execute code snippet in file context; `--purpose` describes why
`doc`	`doc "SwiftUI NavigationStack" --frameworks SwiftUI`	Search Apple documentation
`read`	`read "path/to/file"`	Read file
`ls`	`ls [-r] /`	List directory
`grep`	`grep "TODO\|FIXME"`	Search files
`glob`	`glob "*/.swift"`	Find files by pattern
`write`	`write "path/to/file" "content"`	Write file
`update`	`update "path/to/file" "old" "new" [--replace-all]`	Edit file
`mv`	`mv "Old.swift" "New.swift"`	Move/rename file
`mkdir`	`mkdir "MyApp/Sources/Feature"`	Create directory
`rm`	`rm "MyApp/Sources/Unused.swift"`	Delete file

Notes

File paths are relative to the Xcode project structure, not absolute filesystem paths.
If the bridge is not responding: xcode-cli-ctl status then xcode-cli-ctl uninstall && xcode-cli-ctl install.
Use xcode-cli call <toolName> --args '{"key":"value"}' to invoke any MCP tool directly.
run builds via MCP first; if the build fails, it returns the build error JSON and exits with code 1. On success it triggers run-without-build via AppleScript and returns { buildResult, runTriggered }.
run-without-build uses AppleScript to send a keyboard shortcut to Xcode; ensure Accessibility access is granted to Terminal/iTerm in System Settings → Privacy & Security → Accessibility.
Testing: use targetName + identifier from test list --json for exact test targeting. test some only runs tests from the active scheme's active test plan — switch scheme in Xcode if a target is missing.
