1. Setup Steps
If you delegate simulator tasks to sub-agents, make sure they have MCP permissions.
Find a booted simulator Use
list-devices. Filter for entries withplatform: "ios"and skip any withkind: "device"(a physical iPhone, never a simulator target): booted simulators are listed first. If none are booted, callboot-devicewithudid: <chosen UDID>.Verify connection All interaction tools (
