Verify and debug native, React Native, Expo, or Flutter apps on an iOS Simulator with agent-device. Use when an agent needs to launch an app, inspect its live UI, tap, type, scroll, validate a code change, collect failure evidence, or reproduce a workflow on an iPhone or iPad Simulator.

Instructions onlySoftware Development

AI-generated overview

Drives an iOS Simulator through the agent-device CLI to launch apps, inspect live UI, and validate changes.

What it does: This skill gives an agent instructions for operating an iOS Simulator via the separately installed agent-device CLI. It covers opening an app or bundle id on the iOS platform, taking interactive snapshots, and tapping, typing, and scrolling to inspect a live UI. It also points to version-matched help topics for validation, debugging, React Native, React DevTools, and scripting.
When to use it: Use it when an agent needs to launch and drive a native, React Native, Expo, or Flutter app on an iPhone or iPad Simulator. It fits validating a code change, collecting failure evidence, or reproducing a workflow in the simulator.
Requirements: Requires the agent-device CLI to be installed separately, typically via a global npm install, and available on PATH; installation and upgrades are user-owned steps. The skill is instructions only and ships no scripts.

iOS Simulator

Require the agent-device CLI to be installed separately before driving a simulator:

Treat installation and upgrades as user-owned setup steps. Do not run that command autonomously or substitute a mutable npx -y agent-device@latest invocation.

For a normal app-driving task, start immediately. Do not probe first with --help, --version, devices, appstate, snapshot, or screenshot. Target iOS explicitly when opening an app or bundle id:

Follow the initial interactive snapshot and corrective error hints. If the shell reports that agent-device is unavailable, stop and ask the user to install it or expose their existing installation on PATH.

Only when the task is specialized or a command shape is unclear, read the relevant version-matched help topic:
