What it does
Mobile Dev Setup is an agent skill from callstackincubator/codex-mobile-dev-plugin, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Set up the Mobile Dev plugin's bundled iOS and Android backends and check local device tools.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml` and `references/missing-tools.md`).
It sits in Mobile. It works with Android, iOS and Xcode. The repository describes itself as: A Codex plugin for a better mobile development experience for android and iOS.
When your agent uses it
- Mobile work in your project
Example prompts
- “/mobile-dev-setup”
Requirements
- Node.js
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Call mobile_open_simulator to open the panel beside the chat, or reuse an open Mobile Dev panel. Use mobile_open_workspace if the user…

- If no devices appear, have the user add an iOS runtime in Xcode's Settings, Components. A runtime download can be large, so do not start…
- Follow the user's device choice; otherwise reuse a compatible device shared by the panel, then a suitable booted simulator. For app…

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 85c112d. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
npmxcodebuild
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Mobile Dev Setup loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 28 tokens; SKILL.md has 700 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 700 words (~1,183 tokens).
“The installed plugin contains Baguette 0.2.1, its resource bundle, agent-device 0.20.9 with its dependencies and Apple runner source, and the built MCP servers and panel. Do not install Baguette with Homebrew, install a global agent-device CLI, or start separate servers.”
