About this skill
XcodeBuildMCP
Use XcodeBuildMCP tools instead of raw xcodebuild, xcrun, or simctl.
Capabilities:
- Session defaults: Configure project, scheme, simulator, and device defaults to avoid repetitive parameters
- Project discovery: Find Xcode projects/workspaces, list schemes, inspect build settings
- Simulator workflows: Build, run, test, install, and launch apps on iOS simulators; manage simulator state (boot, erase, location, appearance)
- Device workflows: Build, test, install, and launch apps on physical devices with code signing
- macOS workflows: Build, run, and test macOS applications
- Log capture: Stream and capture logs from simulators and devices
- LLDB debugging: Attach debugger, set breakpoints, inspect stack traces and variables, execute LLDB commands
- UI automation: Capture screenshots, inspect view hierarchy with coordinates, perform taps/swipes/gestures, type text, press hardware buttons
- SwiftPM: Build, run, test, and manage Swift Package Manager projects
- Project scaffolding: Generate new iOS/macOS project templates
Only simulator workflow tools are enabled by default. If capabilities like device, macOS, debugging, or UI automation are not available, the user must configure XcodeBuildMCP to enable them. See https://github.com/getsentry/XcodeBuildMCP/blob/main/docs/CONFIGURATION.md for workflow configuration.
Step 1: Establish Session Context
- Call
session_show_defaultsbefore the first build/run/test action in a session. - Use
discover_projsonly when defaults show missing or incorrect project/workspace context. - Do not run discovery speculatively or in parallel with
session_show_defaults. - For simulator run intent, prefer the combined build-and-run tool instead of separate build then run calls.
- Do not chain build-only then build-and-run unless the user explicitly requests both.
Step 2: Understand Workflow-Scoped Tool Availability
- Not all tools are enabled by default; tool availability depends on enabled workflows.
- If a tool is expected but missing, check enabled workflows first.
- Update enabled workflows in
.xcodebuildmcp/config.yaml, then ask user to reload/restart the session to surface refreshes.
Step 3: Report Context Clearly
- Return the active defaults context used for execution (project/workspace, scheme, simulator/device).
- For failures, include the exact failing step and the next actionable command/tool call.

godot
bfollington
This skill should be used when working on Godot Engine projects. It provides specialized knowledge of Godot's file formats (.gd, .tscn, .tres), architecture patterns (component-based, signal-driven, resource-based), common pitfalls, validation tools, code templates, and CLI workflows. The `godot` command is available for running the game, validating scripts, importing resources, and exporting builds. Use this skill for tasks involving Godot game development, debugging scene/resource files, implementing game systems, or creating new Godot components.
nano-banana-pro

Generate and edit images using Google's Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image) API. Use when the user asks to generate, create, edit, modify, change, alter, or update images. Also use when user references an existing image file and asks to modify it in any way (e.g., "modify this image", "change the background", "replace X with Y"). Supports both text-to-image generation and image-to-image editing with configurable resolution (1K default, 2K, or 4K for high resolution). DO NOT read the image file first - use this skill directly with the --input-image parameter.
