check_supported_platforms
Check which platforms are supported
LABSCO SUMMARY
Three tools, and the useful one is the screenshot — get_simulator_list and check_supported_platforms exist to name the device it takes.
get_simulator_screenshot needs a deviceId and a platform, which is what get_simulator_list supplies along with each simulator's state, so an agent can avoid aiming at a device that is not booted. check_supported_platforms sets the outer bound before either of them. This is a read-only view: nothing here taps, types or launches an app, so it belongs alongside whatever is driving the simulator rather than in place of it.
What it is
A simulator viewer with three tools — list simulators, check supported platforms, and capture a screenshot of the iOS simulator.
What you get
- get_simulator_list returns all simulators, filterable by platform and state.
- get_simulator_screenshot captures a screenshot of the iOS simulator for a given deviceId and platform.
- check_supported_platforms reports which platforms are supported.
Requirements
A machine with simulators the server can reach — check_supported_platforms reports which platforms it can work with, and get_simulator_list reports which devices exist and what state each is in.
Setup effort
One command — npx -y @cultivx/mobile-xray-mcp
USE CASES
01
Seeing what the app looks like on a simulator right now
The device id and platform come from the simulator list, which also says which devices are booted and therefore worth screenshotting.
02
Finding out which simulators exist and which are running
The platform check sets the outer bound and the list narrows by state, which is what stops a screenshot call aiming at a shut-down device.
3 tools
