  "description_en": "Pure Python 3 library and command-line tool for communicating with iPhones, iPads and other iOS devices from Windows, Linux or macOS, implementing usbmux, lockdown and its services, DTX-based developer (DVT) services and the RemoteXPC tunnels that iOS 17+ uses for developer access. Commands cover device discovery and port forwarding, syslog and crash-report collection, AFC file access, app and profile management, PCAP capture of device traffic, Bluetooth HCI logging, WebInspector automation with a Chrome DevTools Protocol bridge for Safari and WebViews, and DVT tooling such as process monitoring and screenshots; firmware update, recovery/DFU and backups are also handled. Its protocol-internals documentation walks through the usbmux, lockdown, DTX and RemoteXPC layers, and helper scripts in misc/ sniff plist and RemoteXPC traffic.",

    "Version v11.38.0 was published to GitHub and PyPI on 2026-10-19. The README names PyPI as the only official distribution channel and says third-party packages such as AUR may be outdated. Requires Python 3.9+.",
    "Needs a connected or networked iOS device the user controls. Windows needs iTunes for the Apple Mobile Device Service and Linux needs usbmuxd; macOS uses the system usbmuxd. OpenSSL is required for iOS versions before 13 and libusb for recovery/DFU. The tunnels guide says iOS 17.4+ developer commands open an in-process tunnel without root, while iOS 17.0-17.3.1 on Linux or Windows needs a root tunneld.",
    "Developer services require Developer Mode and Apple's Developer Disk Image. The auto-mounter's developer_disk_image dependency downloads Apple image files from a separate rehosting repository; Apple's files retain Apple's rights.",
    "GPL-3.0-or-later. The repository also ships a device-operator agent skill for driving devices through the CLI."

    "需要一台使用者自己控制、已连接或位于网络中的 iOS 设备。Windows 需安装 iTunes 以获得 Apple Mobile Device Service，Linux 需要 usbmuxd，macOS 使用系统自带的 usbmuxd。iOS 13 之前的版本需要 OpenSSL，恢复／DFU 模式需要 libusb。隧道指南称，iOS 17.4+ 的开发者命令会在进程内建立无需 root 的隧道；iOS 17.0–17.3.1 在 Linux 或 Windows 上则需要以 root 运行的 tunneld。",
    "开发者服务需要开启开发者模式并挂载 Apple 的 Developer Disk Image。自动挂载器的 developer_disk_image 依赖会从另一个转存仓库下载 Apple 镜像文件；Apple 文件保留 Apple 的权利。",
    "采用 GPL-3.0-or-later 许可。仓库还提供通过命令行驱动设备的设备操作代理技能。"
