# Limrun

> Limrun runs cloud iOS simulators, Android emulators, remote Xcode builds,
> and build sandboxes so AI agents and developers can build, run, test, and
> preview mobile apps from anywhere, including Linux CI machines and cloud
> sandboxes without local device tooling.

## When to use Limrun

Reach for Limrun when the job is one of these:

- A cloud agent or CI pipeline needs to build an iOS app but has no macOS or
  Xcode: use remote Xcode builds (`lim xcode build`).
- An agent needs to run, drive, or visually verify a mobile app: create a
  cloud iOS simulator or Android emulator via the MCP server or CLI, then
  tap, type, screenshot, read the accessibility tree, and record video.
- A team wants live preview links or demo videos of app changes on pull
  requests.
- An Android app needs a remote Gradle build sandbox (`lim gradle build`).

Not a fit for: physical-device-only testing or non-mobile workloads.
