axiom-test-simulator

axiom-test-simulator is a command for Claude Code, Cursor from CharlesWiltgen/Axiom. It costs 20 tokens per session (406 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of test-simulator, MIT.

A simulator testing command for iOS apps that runs scenarios, checks the screen visually, captures screenshots or video, and reviews logs for crashes and errors. An iOS Simulator is a computer-based copy of an iPhone or iPad used for testing.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to test locations, permissions, push notifications, deep links, and visual changes, including screenshot and video evidence.
Why use it?
It reduces the need to set up test conditions and tap through flows manually. It helps verify both app behavior and how screens look.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

axiom-test-simulator scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

94% identical to test-simulator — 18 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

Simulator Testing Agent

Delegate to the simulator-tester subagent for automated simulator testing with visual verification.

What It Does

The agent will:

  1. Check simulator state and boot if needed
  2. Set up test scenarios (location, permissions, push notifications)
  3. Capture screenshots and video
  4. Monitor logs for crashes/errors
  5. Analyze results and provide clear reports

Capabilities

  • Screenshot capture for visual debugging
  • Video recording for complex workflows
  • Location simulation for GPS-based features
  • Push notification testing without a server
  • Permission management without manual tapping
  • Deep link navigation to specific screens
  • Status bar override for clean screenshots
  • Log analysis for crash detection

Common Scenarios

Visual Verification:

/axiom-test-simulator

"Take a screenshot to verify the login button fix"

Location Testing:

/axiom-test-simulator

"Set location to San Francisco and test the map feature"

Push Notifications:

/axiom-test-simulator

"Send a test push notification and screenshot the result"

Permission Flows:

/axiom-test-simulator

"Test the camera permission dialog"

Prefer Natural Language?

Instead of using this command, you can simply say:

  • "Can you take a screenshot of the app?"
  • "Test my app with location simulation"
  • "Check if the push notification handling works"
  • "Navigate to Settings and take a screenshot"
  • "Record a video of the app running"

The simulator-tester agent will automatically trigger.

Quick Screenshot

For just a quick screenshot without full testing, use:

/axiom-screenshot
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
