I want to factory reset an iOS simulator named 'iPhone 16 Pro' without deleting and re-creating the device instance so that its UUID remains unchanged for CI script caching. What command should I execute?
| Checked | Without skill | With skill |
|---|---|---|
| Uses scripts/simctl_erase.py to perform factory resets. | Missed | Passed |
| Uses the --name flag to target the device without deleting UUID. | Missed | Passed |
The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
Build, test, and automate iOS applications using accessibility-driven navigation and structured data instead of pixel coordinates.
# 1. Check environment
bash scripts/sim_health_check.sh
# 2. Launch app
python scripts/app_launcher.py --launch com.example.app
# 3. Map screen to see elements
python scripts/screen_mapper.py
# 4. Tap button
python scripts/navigator.py --find-text "Login" --tap
# 5. Enter text
python scripts/navigator.py --find-type TextField --enter-text "[email protected]"
All scripts support --help for detailed options and --json for machine-readable output.
Always prefer the accessibility tree over screenshots for navigation. The accessibility tree gives you element types, labels, frames, and tap targets — structured data that's cheaper and more reliable than image analysis.
Use this priority:
screen_mapper.py → structured element list (5-7 lines, ~10 tokens)navigator.py --find-text/--find-type/--find-id → semantic interactionScreenshots cost 1,600–6,300 tokens depending on size. The accessibility tree costs 10–50 tokens in default mode.
