history

Project history and usage

Baguette is a young Swift command-line tool for headless iOS Simulator control, screen streaming, host-side input injection, and a local web UI. It targets macOS, Apple Silicon, and Xcode/iOS 26-era simulator internals.

Project history

The public GitHub repository was created on May 1, 2026. The README describes a single Swift CLI named `baguette` plus a self-contained web UI for booting simulators, streaming screens, sending taps and gestures, inspecting accessibility trees, tailing logs, taking screenshots, recording, and exposing a multi-device farm view.

The project is explicitly tied to Apple's simulator stack: the README says it links against private SimulatorKit/CoreSimulator frameworks and requires Xcode 26. That makes it closer to a power-user automation tool than a general mobile-testing framework.

Adoption history

Baguette is new but visible in the Homebrew ecosystem. The Homebrew formula API reported stable version 0.1.77 with 107 installs in the previous 30 days as of June 30, 2026, while GitHub reported 1,457 stars.

Its adoption is likely concentrated among iOS automation, device-farm, QA, and simulator-infrastructure users who need headless control without opening Xcode or Simulator.app.

How it is used

Common workflows include `baguette serve` for the local browser UI, `baguette list`, `baguette boot --udid`, `baguette tap --udid`, `baguette screenshot`, `baguette logs`, and device-farm pages served from localhost. The README also documents build-from-source commands using `make` and `swift test`.

Why package nerds care

Baguette is interesting because it packages fragile simulator-control knowledge into a brew-installable CLI. Package nerds care less about its age and more about the packaging boundary: a single formula can expose private-framework simulator automation, HID-style gestures, streaming, and a web control plane.

No matching local secret-handling manifest was found for baguette. Nucleus package metadata is still published here so future coverage has a stable package URL.

Install behavior

  • No Homebrew post-install hook is recorded in formula metadata.
  • Homebrew bottle metadata is available for 1 platform targets.

Recommended review

Before unattended agent use, check whether the tool reads plaintext credentials, writes remote state, publishes artifacts, or shells out to plugins.
