AppleDocsTool

Apple development tools for Claude Code and Cursor - simulator UI automation, project analysis, build/test, and documentation lookup.

Install

Claude Code Plugin

From GitHub (works now):

/plugin marketplace add briannadoubt/claude-marketplace
/plugin install apple-docs@briannadoubt

From official marketplace (after approval):

/plugin install apple-docs

Alternative: Local Claude install

git clone https://github.com/briannadoubt/AppleDocsTool.git
claude plugin install ./AppleDocsTool --scope user

Or MCP-only (no skills):

cd AppleDocsTool && swift build -c release
claude mcp add apple-docs .build/release/apple-docs

Verify Claude install:

/plugin list    # should show apple-docs

Cursor MCP

Cursor project-level MCP config is included at .cursor/mcp.json.

git clone https://github.com/briannadoubt/AppleDocsTool.git
cd AppleDocsTool
swift build

Then in Cursor, open this repository and enable the apple-docs (minimal) or apple-docs-full server from MCP settings.

Cursor skills/rules are included at .cursor/rules/apple-docs-skills.mdc and route tasks to the shell-first workflows in skills/.

Architecture

This tool uses a skills-first approach for efficiency:

Layer	What	Token Cost
Skills	Shell commands in `skills/` directory	~0 (just file reads)
MCP (minimal)	3 UI automation tools	~2K tokens
MCP (full)	All 33 tools	~30K tokens

By default, the server exposes only 3 tools that require macOS Accessibility APIs. Everything else can be done with shell commands documented in the skills.

Skills

Claude and Cursor agents discover capabilities from skills/SKILLS.md:

Skill	Description	Example Commands
analyze-project	Understand project structure	`cat Package.swift`, `grep -rn "struct"`
build-and-test	Build and test	`swift build`, `swift test`
lookup-docs	Find documentation	Apple docs URLs, GitHub READMEs
control-simulator	Manage simulators	`xcrun simctl boot`, `xcrun simctl install`
profile-app	Profile performance	`xcrun xctrace record`
ui-interact	UI automation	Requires MCP tools

MCP Tools

Default (Minimal Server)

Only tools that can't be done with shell commands:

Tool	Description
`simulator_ui_state`	Get screenshot + OCR text with tap coordinates
`simulator_interact`	Tap, swipe, type text, press hardware buttons
`simulator_find_text`	Find text on screen, get coordinates

Full Server

For all 33 tools (project symbols, Apple docs, build/test, profiling, etc.):

# Claude: configure with --full flag
claude mcp add apple-docs ~/.mint/bin/apple-docs --args --full
