description: Set up and connect to an iOS simulator using argent MCP tools. Use when starting a new session, booting an iOS simulator, getting an iOS UDID, or before any iOS simulator interaction task.
---
## 1. Setup Steps
If you delegate simulator tasks to sub-agents, make sure they have MCP permissions.
1. **Find a booted simulator**
Use `list-devices`. Filter for entries with `platform: "ios"` and skip any with `kind: "device"` (a physical iPhone, never a simulator target): booted simulators are listed first.
If none are booted, call `boot-device` with `udid: <chosen UDID>`.
2. **Verify connection**
All interaction tools (`gesture-tap`, `gesture-swipe`, `gesture-custom`, etc.) auto-start the server if not already running.
## 2. Notes
- UDIDs look like: `A1B2C3D4-E5F6-7890-ABCD-EF1234567890`
