Xcodebuildmcp

Overview

XcodeBuildMCP is a Model Context Protocol server that brings Xcode project management, simulator control, and app utilities directly into your AI assistant. It exposes these capabilities as tools that Claude, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP clients can invoke on your behalf during development workflows.

The server runs locally on your machine via the npm package xcodebuildmcp, communicating over stdio with no authentication required. Version 1.12.8 is available now under the MIT license, with full source code published at cameroncooke/XcodeBuildMCP on GitHub.

XcodeBuildMCP is listed in the Development category on mcp.site and works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and other MCP clients. If you maintain this project, claim this listing to verify ownership and keep the information current.
