New Features

• Tool Filtering via Environment Variables
  • Filter specific tools using the new IOS_SIMULATOR_MCP_FILTERED_TOOLS environment variable
  • Customizable filtering options:
    • Comma-separated list of tool names to disable
    • Supports all available tool types
    • No impact on non-filtered tools
  • Use Case: prevent Cursor Agent mode from selecting tools it cannot use for context as of writing this like screenshot by removing it from the available tools that are available.

    {
      "env": {
        "IOS_SIMULATOR_MCP_FILTERED_TOOLS": "screenshot"
      }
    }

  • Use Case: Disable resource-intensive tools like video recording:

    {
      "env": {
        "IOS_SIMULATOR_MCP_FILTERED_TOOLS": "record_video,stop_recording"
      }
    }
