iOS Simulator control from inside Orca, with the live device view in Orca's emulator pane. Use when driving a booted Apple Simulator on macOS: taps, gestures, typing, hardware buttons, rotation, and the accessibility tree, or when an iOS change needs simulator evidence. For an Android device or emulator use the Android emulator skill; build and install the app with xcodebuild or simctl first.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Orca Emulator This discovery stub loads the version-matched guide from the Orca executable used for this session. Prefer Orca over raw `serve-sim` or direct `simctl` for simulator control inside Orca; it handles device scoping, helper lifecycle, and worktree context. ## Resolve the CLI for this session Choose the executable once and reuse it for every later command: - If the `ORCA_CLI_COMMAND` environment variable is set, use its value. Orca exports this for managed WSL sessions. - Otherwise, in a dev checkout whose session exposes `ORCA_DEV_REPO_ROOT`, use `orca-dev`. - Otherwise, on Linux outside an Orca-managed terminal, use `orca-ide`. Never run bare `orca` there — outside Orca's terminals it normally resolves to the GNOME Orca screen reader (`/usr/bin/orca`) and starts speech on the user's machine. - Otherwise, use `orca`. Below, `ORCA` is a placeholder for the executable you resolved. Substitute it before running anything; do not create a shell variable or run `ORCA` literally. This works the same way in POSIX shells, PowerShell, and cmd.exe. If the selected executable cannot run, report its exact error and stop. Do not fall through …

How to install
mdr add aiskillstore/marketplace/orca-emulator@sha256:3da7191179e46cb0The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260926.2a33f82, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
