Xcode MCP server

Give coding agents Apple-specific proof, not another generic shell.

Xcode can expose files, builds, tests, previews, and diagnostics through its own bridge. Axint sits beside that bridge and adds the Apple-specific validation, proof receipts, repair packets, and generation contracts agents otherwise have to improvise.

01

Use the two servers for different jobs

Xcode's bridge is the authority for workspace state and Apple tooling. Axint is the authority for its diagnostic catalog, project proof contract, Fix Packets, App Intents metadata, and reusable Apple capability packages. An agent can call both in one repair loop without pretending either replaces the other.

  • Let Xcode build, test, preview, and inspect the project.
  • Let Axint classify Apple-specific failures and produce compact next actions.
  • Rejoin long-running jobs instead of dumping complete logs back into model context.

02

Keep MCP output compact enough to act on

The useful result is not a larger transcript. Axint keeps full artifacts on disk and returns verdict, evidence, affected files, exact next action, and a rerun command. That gives an agent enough state to repair the project without spending the next turn rediscovering the failure.

03

Run locally or use the hosted endpoint

The package includes the complete local stdio server. The hosted endpoint supports established clients and the current stateless protocol generation, with production checks against official SDK clients. Local project source stays local unless you explicitly invoke a hosted workflow that says otherwise.

common questions

Does Axint replace Xcode's MCP bridge?

No. Xcode remains the source of truth for builds, tests, previews, and workspace operations. Axint adds Apple-specific validation, repair, generation, and proof contracts.

Can I connect without installing Node locally?

Yes. Compatible hosts can use the hosted endpoint at https://mcp.axint.ai/mcp. The local package remains the best path when project-local source and artifacts must stay on the machine.
