 # Mobile Debug MCP
 
-**Mobile Debug MCP** is a minimal, secure MCP server for AI-assisted mobile development. It allows you to **launch Android or iOS apps**, **read their logs**, and **inspect UI** from an MCP-compatible AI client.
+A minimal, secure MCP server for AI-assisted mobile development. Build, install, and inspect Android/iOS apps from an MCP-compatible client.
 
-This server is designed with security in mind, using strict argument handling to prevent shell injection, and reliability, with robust process management to avoid hanging operations.
+This README was shortened to keep high-level info only. Detailed tool definitions moved to docs/TOOLS.md.
 
-> **Note:** iOS support is currently an untested Work In Progress (WIP). Please use with caution and report any issues.
-
----
-
-## Features
-
-- Launch Android apps via package name.
-- Launch iOS apps via bundle ID on a booted simulator.
-- Fetch recent logs from Android or iOS apps.
-- Terminate and restart apps.
-- Clear app data for fresh installs.
-- Capture screenshots.
-- Cross-platform support (Android + iOS).
-- Minimal, focused design for fast debugging loops.
-
----
-
-## Requirements
-
-- Node.js >= 18
-- Android SDK (`adb` in PATH) for Android support
-- Xcode command-line tools (`xcrun simctl`) for iOS support
-- **iOS Device Bridge (`idb`)** for iOS UI tree support
-- Booted iOS simulator for iOS testing
-
----
-
-## Installation
-
-You can install and use **Mobile Debug MCP** in one of two ways:
-
-### 1. Install Dependencies
-
-**iOS Prerequisite (`idb`):**
-To use the `get_ui_tree` tool on iOS, you must install Facebook's `idb`:
-
-```bash
-brew tap facebook/fb
-brew install idb-companion
-pip3 install fb-idb
-```
-
-### 2. Clone the repository for local development
+## Quick start
 
 ```bash
 git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/mobile-debug-mcp.git
 cd mobile-debug-mcp
 npm install
 npm run build
+npm start
 ```
 
-This option is suitable if you want to modify or contribute to the code.
-
-### 3. Install via npm for standard use
-
-```bash
-npm install -g mobile-debug-mcp
-```
-
-This option installs the package globally for easy use without cloning the repo.
-
----
+## Requirements
 
-## MCP Server Configuration
+- Node.js >= 18
+- Android SDK (adb) for Android support
+- Xcode command-line tools for iOS support
+- Optional: idb for enhanced iOS device support
 
-Example WebUI MCP config using `npx --yes` and environment variables:
+## Configuration example
 
 ```json
 {
   "mcpServers": {
     "mobile-debug": {
       "command": "npx",
-      "args": [
-        "--yes",
-        "mobile-debug-mcp",
-        "server"
-      ],
-      "env": {
-        "ADB_PATH": "/path/to/adb",
-        "XCRUN_PATH": "/usr/bin/xcrun"
-      }
+      "args": ["--yes","mobile-debug-mcp","server"],
+      "env": { "ADB_PATH": "/path/to/adb", "XCRUN_PATH": "/usr/bin/xcrun" }
     }
   }
 }
 ```
 
-> Make sure to set `ADB_PATH` (Android) and `XCRUN_PATH` (iOS) if the tools are not in your system PATH.

-  "element": { /* UIElement object if found */ }
-}
-```
-
-If the element is not found within the timeout, `found` will be `false`. If a system error occurs (e.g., ADB failure), an `error` field will be present.
-
-```json
-{
-  "device": { /* device info */ },
-  "found": false,
-  "error": "Optional error message"
-}
-```
-
-### tap
-Simulate a finger tap on the device screen at specific coordinates.
-
-Platform support and constraints:
-- Android: Implemented via `adb shell input tap` and works when `adb` is available in PATH or configured via `ADB_PATH`.
-- iOS: Requires Facebook's `idb` tooling. The iOS implementation uses `idb` to deliver UI events and is simulator-oriented (works reliably on a booted simulator). Physical device support depends on `idb` capabilities and a running `idb_companion` on the target device; it may not work in all environments.
-
-Prerequisites for iOS (if you intend to use tap on iOS):
-```bash
-brew tap facebook/fb
-brew install idb-companion
-pip3 install fb-idb
-```
-Ensure `idb` and `idb_companion` are in your PATH. If you use non-standard tool locations, set `XCRUN_PATH` and/or `ADB_PATH` environment variables as appropriate.
-
-Behavior notes:
-- The tool is a primitive input: it only sends a tap at the provided coordinates. It does not inspect or interpret the UI.
-- If `idb` is missing or the simulator/device is not available, the tool will return an error explaining the failure.
-
-**Input:**
-```jsonc
-{
-  "platform": "android" | "ios", // Optional, defaults to "android"
-  "x": 200, // X coordinate (Required)
-  "y": 400, // Y coordinate (Required)
-  "deviceId": "emulator-5554" // Optional
-}
-```
-
-**Response:**
-```json
-{
-  "device": { /* device info */ },
-  "success": true,
-  "x": 200,
-  "y": 400
-}
-```
-
-If the tap fails (e.g., missing `adb`/`idb`, device not found), `success` will be `false` and an `error` field will be present.
-
-### swipe
-Simulate a swipe gesture on an Android device.
-
-**Input:**
-```jsonc
-{
-  "platform": "android", // Optional, defaults to "android"
-  "x1": 500, // Start X (Required)
-  "y1": 1500, // Start Y (Required)
-  "x2": 500, // End X (Required)
-  "y2": 500, // End Y (Required)
-  "duration": 300, // Duration in ms (Required)
-  "deviceId": "emulator-5554" // Optional
-}
-```
-
-**Response:**
-```json
-{
-  "device": { /* device info */ },
-  "success": true,
-  "start": [500, 1500],
-  "end": [500, 500],
-  "duration": 300
-}
-```
-
-If the swipe fails, `success` will be `false` and an `error` field will be present.
-
-### type_text
-Type text into the currently focused input field on an Android device.
-
-**Input:**
-```jsonc
-{
-  "platform": "android", // Optional, defaults to "android"
-  "text": "hello world", // Text to type (Required)
-  "deviceId": "emulator-5554" // Optional
-}
-```
-
-**Response:**
-```json
-{
-  "device": { /* device info */ },
-  "success": true,
-  "text": "hello world"
-}
-```
-
-If the command fails, `success` will be `false` and an `error` field will be present.
-
-### press_back
-Simulate pressing the Android Back button.
-
-**Input:**
-```jsonc
-{
-  "platform": "android", // Optional
-  "deviceId": "emulator-5554" // Optional
-}
-```
-
-**Response:**
-```json
-{
-  "device": { /* device info */ },
-  "success": true
-}
-```

-
-## Recommended Workflow
-
-1. Ensure Android device or iOS simulator is running.
-2. Use `start_app` to launch the app.
-3. Use `get_logs` to read the latest logs.
-4. Use `capture_screenshot` to visually inspect the app if needed.
-5. Use `wait_for_element` to ensure the app is in the expected state before proceeding (e.g., after login).
-6. Use `reset_app_data` to clear state if debugging fresh install scenarios.
-7. Use `restart_app` to quickly reboot the app during development cycles.
-
----
-
-## Notes
-
-- Ensure `adb` and `xcrun` are in your PATH or set `ADB_PATH` / `XCRUN_PATH` accordingly.
-- For iOS, the simulator must be booted before using tools.
-- The `capture_screenshot` tool returns a multi-block response: a JSON text block with metadata, followed by an image block containing the base64-encoded PNG data.
-
----
-
-## Testing
-
-The repository includes a smoke test script to verify end-to-end functionality on real devices or simulators.
-
-```bash
-# Run smoke test for Android
-npx tsx smoke-test.ts android com.example.package
-
-# Run smoke test for iOS
-npx tsx smoke-test.ts ios com.example.bundleid
-```
+> Note: Avoid using `jsonc` fences with inline comments in README code blocks to prevent syntax-highlighting issues on some renderers.
 
-The smoke test performs the following sequence:
-1. Starts the app
-2. Captures a screenshot
-3. Fetches logs
-4. Terminates the app
