Swift Concurrency review and remediation for Swift 6.2+. An agent skill from Dimillian/Skills.

  • Works in 3 steps: Triage the issue → Apply the smallest safe fix → Verify the fix
  • Asked to review Swift Concurrency usage
  • SKILL.md covers Overview, Workflow and Reference material
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Swift Concurrency Expert is an agent skill from Dimillian/Skills. Swift Concurrency review and remediation for Swift 6.2+. Use when asked to review Swift Concurrency usage, improve concurrency compliance, or fix Swift concurrency compiler errors in a feature or file. Concrete actions include adding Sendable conformance, applying @MainActor annotations, resolving actor isolation warnings, fixing data race diagnostics, and migrating completion handlers to async/await.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `references/approachable-concurrency.md` and `references/swift-6-2-concurrency.md`).

It sits in Development, covering Async programming. It works with Swift. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked to review Swift Concurrency usage
  • Improve concurrency compliance
  • Fix Swift concurrency compiler errors in a feature

Example prompts

  • “/swift-concurrency-expert”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Triage the issue
  2. Apply the smallest safe fix
  3. Verify the fix

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 05ba982. 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.

Context cost

Swift Concurrency Expert loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.8k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 107 tokens; SKILL.md has 295 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~107
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~4.8k

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

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

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.

Swift Concurrency Expert

Overview

Review and fix Swift Concurrency issues in Swift 6.2+ codebases by applying actor isolation, Sendable safety, and modern concurrency patterns with minimal behavior changes.

Workflow

1. Triage the issue
  • Capture the exact compiler diagnostics and the offending symbol(s).
  • Check project concurrency settings: Swift language version (6.2+), strict concurrency level, and whether approachable concurrency (default actor isolation / main-actor-by-default) is enabled.
  • Identify the current actor context (@MainActor, actor, nonisolated) and whether a default actor isolation mode is enabled.
  • Confirm whether the code is UI-bound or intended to run off the main actor.
2. Apply the smallest safe fix

Prefer edits that preserve existing behavior while satisfying data-race safety.

Common fixes:

  • UI-bound types: annotate the type or relevant members with @MainActor.
  • Protocol conformance on main actor types: make the conformance isolated (e.g., extension Foo: @MainActor SomeProtocol).
  • Global/static state: protect with @MainActor or move into an actor.
  • Background work: move expensive work into a @concurrent async function on a nonisolated type or use an actor to guard mutable state.
  • Sendable errors: prefer immutable/value types; add Sendable conformance only when correct; avoid @unchecked Sendable unless you can prove thread safety.
3. Verify the fix
  • Rebuild and confirm all concurrency diagnostics are resolved with no new warnings introduced.
  • Run the test suite to check for regressions — concurrency changes can introduce subtle runtime issues even when the build is clean.
  • If the fix surfaces new warnings, treat each one as a fresh triage (return to step 1) and resolve iteratively until the build is clean and tests pass.
Examples

UI-bound type — adding @MainActor

swift
// Before: data-race warning because ViewModel is accessed from the main thread
// but has no actor isolation
class ViewModel: ObservableObject {
    @Published var title: String = ""
    func load() { title = "Loaded" }
}

// After: annotate the whole type so all stored state and methods are
// automatically isolated to the main actor
@MainActor
class ViewModel: ObservableObject {
    @Published var title: String = ""
    func load() { title = "Loaded" }
}

Protocol conformance isolation

swift
// Before: compiler error — SomeProtocol method is nonisolated but the
// conforming type is @MainActor
@MainActor
class Foo: SomeProtocol {
    func protocolMethod() { /* accesses main-actor state */ }
}

// After: scope the conformance to @MainActor so the requirement is
// satisfied inside the correct isolation context
@MainActor
extension Foo: SomeProtocol {
    func protocolMethod() { /* safely accesses main-actor state */ }
}

Background work with @concurrent

swift
// Before: expensive computation blocks the main actor
@MainActor
func processData(_ input: [Int]) -> [Int] {
    input.map { heavyTransform($0) }   // runs on main thread
}

// After: hop off the main actor for the heavy work, then return the result
// The caller awaits the result and stays on its own actor
nonisolated func processData(_ input: [Int]) async -> [Int] {
    await Task.detached(priority: .userInitiated) {
        input.map { heavyTransform($0) }
    }.value
}

// Or, using a @concurrent async function (Swift 6.2+):
@concurrent
func processData(_ input: [Int]) async -> [Int] {
    input.map { heavyTransform($0) }
}
