Open limrun-inc/ios-bazel-template, click Use this template, then Create a new repository. The template is a small SwiftUI chat app built with rules_apple and rules_swift. Its assistant replies are canned, so it needs no network or API key of its own.

Your copy includes an iOS Preview workflow that builds every pull request and comments with a preview link. GitHub copies the workflow but not the secrets, so add the key yourself. The command prompts for the value:

gh secret set LIM_API_KEY --repo <owner>/<repo>

Without the GitHub CLI, add it under Settings, Secrets and variables, Actions in your copy.

The session VM doesn't ship bazelisk. Edit the limrun environment and add @bazel/bazelisk to the install line of its setup script:

#!/bin/bash
npm install --global lim @bazel/bazelisk
lim skills install --agents claude --scope global

Start a new session on your copy with the limrun environment, and send:

Build this app with Limrun and show it to me on an iOS simulator.

Following the limrun-xcode-bazel skill, Claude runs lim xcode rbe to start a remote build stack, attaches a simulator, and builds with the command the CLI prints. The first build took about a minute in our run, with the Apple actions executing on the remote Macs:

The successful build installs the app on the attached simulator. Claude's reply includes a screenshot and a link to the live simulator:

Open the link to use the app in your browser:

Keep the simulator open and ask for a visible change:

Change the title to "Hello from Claude" and make my message bubbles orange, then show me.

Claude edits the Swift source and the asset catalog, then rebuilds. Bazel reuses the cached actions from the first build, so the rebuild took under 10 seconds in our run. The app reinstalls and relaunches on the simulator you have open. Claude also commits the change and pushes it to a new branch:

Click Create PR in the session bar. The pull request opens under your GitHub account, which starts the iOS Preview workflow.

When the workflow finishes, about two minutes in our run, it comments on the pull request with a preview link:

Open Preview runs the build from the pull request on a simulator in the Limrun console. Reviewers need to be members of your Limrun organization to open it.
