I use the Claude Chrome extension for this. Works wonderfully. It lets Claude click through features itself, etc.

Yeah Claude/Cursor already have tools to access the browser. What I’m missing is a tool to inspect iOS simulator the same way. Is there a tool for that yet? The Xcode MCP wasn’t really helpful.

That extension is an incredibly neutered version of Claude Code, and unless you pay for the ultra-premium plan the two can't talk to each other :(

  • But... There is claude --chrome which I'm puzzled nobody mentioned. I use it for E2E testing.

    • I find that incredibly buggy. Literally 50%+ of the time CC complains it can’t connect to the MCP. When it does work it can be magical, but my success rate is tiny. I’m not going to restart all my chrome windows every time I turn around because CC can’t talk to it for some unknown reason, especially since I’ve restarted Chrome before and CC still couldn’t connect.

      There should be a a better way to restart just the MCP.
