On Xcode 26.6, xcrun devicectl device info details prints the field as tunnelIPAddress:, so the README's awk '/Tunnel IP Address/{print $NF}' returns an empty string and the runner is started with DEVICEKIT_LISTEN_HOST="127.0.0.1,".

  • Match both labels: awk '/Tunnel IP Address|tunnelIPAddress/{print $NF}'. Checked on Xcode 26.6 with an iPhone 12 Pro paired over Wi-Fi only; it prints the tunnel address.
  • Add a note that the address can change when the tunnel reconnects. During testing it changed during a three minute xcodebuild test build and after the runner stopped, and the runner then failed to bind (errno 49). Reading it right before test-without-building avoids that.

Found while testing the Wi-Fi recipe from #92 end to end with mobilecli (mobile-next/mobilecli#504), which worked as described.

Walkthrough

The README updates both Wi-Fi tunnel lookup commands to match Tunnel IP Address and tunnelIPAddress. It notes that tunnel addresses can change or become stale after a reconnect. The instructions say to stop and restart the runner with the updated address because it does not rebind automatically.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 9ddbb

The README addresses both tunnel-address labels and explains how to recover after a reconnect. This change presents no concrete merge-blocking risk.

On Xcode 26.6, devicectl labels the field "tunnelIPAddress:", so the
README's awk pattern for "Tunnel IP Address" came back empty. Match both
labels, and note that the address can change when the tunnel reconnects.

The server binds its listen addresses once at startup, so a runner that
outlives a tunnel reconnect keeps the old address.
