Is XcodeBuildMCP safe and trustworthy?

tashan scores XcodeBuildMCP on public evidence — tashan score 73.0/100, it is currently active, note: a single primary maintainer (bus-factor risk), no known advisories against the current release, its declared dependencies reach: filesystem. Audit scope: OSV advisories, install-time scripts, build provenance and declared permission surface. We do not review source code or execute the capability.

How do I install XcodeBuildMCP?

In Claude Code: run `claude mcp add XcodeBuildMCP -- npx -y xcodebuildmcp`. In Cursor / Claude Desktop, add it to mcp.json / claude_desktop_config.json.

You searched for one. Check the rest of your stack:

npx tashan-cli doctor

Reads the config already on your machine and names what is dead, deprecated or running code at install time. No account, nothing uploaded.

Everything on this page is public evidence and free. What it cannot know is whether you run this — check your whole config, free, in the browser. tashan Pro adds the series behind each row and names a replacement for anything dying.

Already running this? Check your whole config — free, in your browser, nothing installed. Or npx tashan-cli doctor locally, which sends nothing at all.
