The brief
Building and testing an iOS app from a terminal, or handing that work to an AI agent, means driving tools that were made for a person sitting in Xcode.
What I built
An MCP server and command-line tool for iOS development, so any AI agent or terminal can build, test, automate and diagnose an iOS project.
- 109 MCP tools and 19 CLI command groups, per the project’s README.
- A single native binary, about 8 MB stripped, with no external runtime dependencies.
- It works with Claude Code and other MCP clients.

How it works
It’s written in Swift 6 and ships as one native binary for macOS 13 and later. It installs from my own Homebrew tap: brew tap justinthevoid/tap && brew install xcforge.
What came of it
xcforge is public and MIT-licensed, so all of it is there to read: the code on GitHub, the tools, and how they fit together. It’s the same kind of automation work I’d do for you, done in the open.
Want something like this?
I build things like this for people with an idea and not enough hours. Tell me what you’re making.
Open to a few small projects: websites, apps and automation.
Email me at
If you can, mention
- What you needa few lines is plenty
- When you need ita date, or no rush
- A rough budgeta range is fine
No fixed prices. Tell me the budget and I’ll say what fits.
What happens after you email
- You email what you need; I reply by email with questions.
- A written, fixed-scope proposal.
- I build it, and hand it over with everything you need to run it.
