Could you build this?
No Executing autonomous AI agents against native iOS simulators via screen capture and simulated touch events requires specialized macOS/Xcode automation and vision-action agent models.
What it would actually take: The stack involves a native macOS companion app bridging directly into the iOS Simulator through private or internal CoreSimulator frameworks and `xcrun simctl` commands. It captures framebuffers, translates natural language instructions into precise screen coordinate interactions via visual-language agent models, and converts successful explorations into deterministic XCUITest/accessibility automation scripts. This demands deep expertise in macOS/iOS developer tooling, simulator internals, and vision-agent grounding.

Competitors mentioned: Claude (native testing capabilities), Playwright (Android automation), scrcpy (coordinate-based interaction), Claude Desktop with browser skills
Concerns raised: Accessibility tree often incomplete or inaccurate, High token consumption, App launches with everything greyed out, Support email bounces, Requires manual intervention between workflow steps
Feature requests: Programmatic/non-screenshot ADB interaction method, Accessibility testing integration, Full automation without manual copy-paste steps, Reliable fallback when accessibility tree fails
