What it does
Xcode Control is an agent skill from CamilleScholtz/swmpc. Control the running Xcode session to build, clean, test, run, and inspect build logs or errors via AppleScript. Use as a direct CLI replacement for the Xcode MCP bridge when developing swmpc, widgets, or schemes in an open Xcode workspace.
Its SKILL.md is about 390 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/xcode.sh`).
It sits in Mobile, covering iOS development. It works with Xcode and Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: An MPD client for macOS & iOS.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve iOS development
Example prompts
- “/xcode-control”
Requirements
- A Bash shell
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 51fa7cb. 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
Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Shell), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
xcrun
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
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
Xcode Control loads about 389 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 63 tokens; SKILL.md has 78 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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (EUPL-1.2) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 78 words (~389 tokens).
“Control the running Xcode session directly via AppleScript. This acts as a drop-in replacement for the Xcode MCP tool service, executing builds and actions inside the live Xcode environment without requiring xcrun mcpbridge.”

Can I use Xcode Control in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add CamilleScholtz/swmpc --skill xcode-control -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/xcode-control, .gemini/skills/xcode-control, .github/skills/xcode-control and .opencode/skills/xcode-control in your project.
What does Xcode Control need to run?
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Xcode Control needs a shell for the scripts in its folder and the command-line tools its instructions call (xcrun). Our summary lists: A Bash shell.
Does Xcode Control access the network?
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is Xcode Control safe to install?
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
What licence does Xcode Control use?
Xcode Control is published under the EUPL-1.2 licence (the repository's licence).
How many tokens does Xcode Control use?
About 389 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 1.6k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
