I know that you’ve already had this error in the past ([Random `Action failed: Select Xcode Version` error](https://discuss.circleci.com/t/random-action-failed-select-xcode-version-error/10198)).  
But today, it’s occurred my builds twice. The error message is the same:

> xcode-select: error: invalid developer directory ‘/Applications/Xcode-8.2.app’  
> sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode-8.2.app && xcodebuild -version returned exit code 1  
> Action failed: Select Xcode Version
