Cometchat iOS Testing

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Tasks that involve Unit testing
• Tasks that involve iOS development
• Tasks that involve Mobile testing and debugging

Example prompts

• “test cometchat ios”
• “unit test chat swift”
• “mock cometchatsdk”
• “/cometchat-ios-testing”

Requirements

• Compatibility (from SKILL.md): CometChatUIKitSwift 5.1.22 + CometChatSDK 4.1.7; Xcode 16+; iOS 15.1+; XCTest / XCUITest

Workflow steps

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

1. 1Fixed sleep() instead of waitForExistence — flaky against the async init gate.
2. 2Asserting on kit view internals — brittle; anchor on your own accessibilityIdentifiers.
3. 3A real login (and Auth Key) in the unit-test target — hide it behind a protocol + fake; keep secrets out of tests.
4. 4Testing on the release configuration — use a test scheme whose env carries the dev Auth Key, so production stays token-only.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 911b108. 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

  No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are swift).

  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.

• Compatibility

  CometChatUIKitSwift 5.1.22 + CometChatSDK 4.1.7; Xcode 16+; iOS 15.1+; XCTest / XCUITest

  From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Cometchat iOS Testing loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 526 words of instructions outside code blocks.

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

~87

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

~1.1k

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

Test an iOS app that embeds CometChat — what to mock vs exercise for real, keeping the CometChatSDK off the network in unit tests, waiting out the async init→login gate, and a lean XCUITest smoke. Triggers: 'test cometchat ios', 'unit test chat swift', 'mock cometchatsdk', 'xcuitest for chat', 'how do I test cometchat swift'.
