Swiftui UI Patterns

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Refactoring SwiftUI UI
• Designing tab architecture with TabView
• Composing screens
• Needing component-specific patterns and examples

Example prompts

• “/swiftui-ui-patterns”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

1. 1Define the view's state and its ownership location.
2. 2Identify dependencies to inject via @Environment.
3. 3Sketch the view hierarchy and extract repeated parts into subviews.
4. 4Implement async loading with .task and explicit state enum if needed.
5. 5Add accessibility labels or identifiers when the UI is interactive.
6. 6Validate with a build and update usage callsites if needed.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a9ca905. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

• Tool permissions

  Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

  From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

• Runs code

  Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

  • rg

  From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

• Network

  No URLs in SKILL.md.

  From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

• Credentials

  Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

  From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Swiftui UI Patterns loads about 887 tokens when it runs, and up to ~16k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 66 tokens; SKILL.md has 352 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~66

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~887

With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them

~16k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description

Best practices and example-driven guidance for building SwiftUI views and components. Use when creating or refactoring SwiftUI UI, designing tab architecture with TabView, composing screens, or needing component-specific patterns and examples.

@State private var selectedItem: Item?

.sheet(item: $selectedItem) { item in
    EditItemSheet(item: item)
}

struct EditItemSheet: View {
    @Environment(\.dismiss) private var dismiss
    @Environment(Store.self) private var store

    let item: Item
    @State private var isSaving = false

    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Button(isSaving ? "Saving…" : "Save") {
                Task { await save() }
            }
        }
    }

    private func save() async {
        isSaving = true
        await store.save(item)
        dismiss()
    }
}
