iOS Simulator: Screenshots not working as expected #186

Hello,
I was just trying using mobilecli with die mcp-server and as standalone tool.

Claude had problems taking screenshots from a running app, so I tested the feature with the commandline tool and it's the same for that.

If I want to take a screenshot from the running dev app, an error occures:

{
  "status": "error",
  "error": "failed to start agent on device 9BD29762-CE5C-4625-8C6E-2C2EACDA90CD: timed out waiting for WebDriverAgent to be ready"
}

If I take a screenshot from any other app, like shortcuts, I only get a screenshot of the home screen.

Is this a bug? Can I do anything to get it working?

Thanks in advance!
