# JosssphZhou/poki > Local MCP server and agent that let AI agents control a real iPhone via USB from a Mac, without jailbreak or extra hardware. Requires macOS 15+, Xcode, Node.js 24+ and ffmpeg. - Magnitude: 4.2 out of 10 — Cooling - Stars: 611 total · +6 stars measured 2026-11-09, 00:03–02:09 UTC, ≈ 70 by evening - Star trust: star growth looks organic - Category: AI agents · Language: JavaScript · License: AGPL-3.0 · Created: 2026-11-05 · Last push: 2026-11-08 - GitHub: https://github.com/JosssphZhou/poki · Homepage: https://poki.bot · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/JosssphZhou/poki ## Useful for - Connect Poki MCP to Claude Code or Codex and run tasks on a connected iPhone. - Run a terminal agent command like searching in Chrome and summarizing the top result. - Drive the agent through iMessage or Telegram channels after setup. ## Why it’s here - Star-counter measurements on 2026-11-09 (UTC), 00:03–02:09: 605 → 611 stars (+6). This is the change over that interval. - Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +70 stars, using observed gains and the previous day. - The repository is 4 days old and already has 611 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet. - Top new repositories this week: #23. - About 19 forks a day — people are taking the code. ## Star trust Star growth looks organic. Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer. ## Numbers - Forks: 126 - Issues and pull requests: 68 - Watchers: 1 - Average over the last week: 136 per day - Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks) - Stars in the last hour (measured): 4 - Latest release: ios-alpha-latest (2026-11-08) ## Stars per day, last 5 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-11-05 … 2026-11-09: 311, 132, 96, 72, 6 ## Magnitude by day, last 4 days 11-06 6.8, 11-07 5.8, 11-08 4.6, 11-09 4.2 ## Spotted in now - Top new repositories this week: #23 ## Similar by description 1. **onehumanbeing/esp32-iphone-agent** — 3.0 · Steady · AI agents · Swift · +8 stars measured 2026-11-09, 00:05–02:11 UTC, ≈ 67 by evening Lets an AI model drive a real iPhone via an ESP32-S3: the screen is mirrored over AirPlay while the board emulates a USB mouse and keyboard. No Mac, Xcode, Apple developer account or jailbreak required. Full card: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/onehumanbeing/esp32-iphone-agent.md --- Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score. Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast. Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself. Data as of 2026-11-09 02:18 UTC, updated every 30 minutes.
