What it does

Hig Components Content is an agent skill from raintree-technology/hig-doctor. Apple Human Interface Guidelines for content display components. Use this skill when the user asks about "charts component", "collection view", "image view", "web view", "color well", "image well", "activity view", "lockup", "data visualization", "content display", displaying images, rendering web content, color pickers, or presenting collections of items in Apple apps. Also use when the user says "how should I display charts", "what's the best way to show images", "should I use a web view", "how do I build a…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 9 other files, including reference files (for example `references/activity-views.md`, `references/charts.md` and `references/collections.md`).

It sits in Mobile, covering iOS development, Data visualization and Accessibility. It works with SwiftUI, iOS and macOS. The repository describes itself as: Apple HIG reference and cross-framework UI audit tooling for agents. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks about charts component
  • Collection view
  • Data visualization
  • Content display

Example prompts

  • “charts component”
  • “collection view”
  • “image view”
  • “/hig-components-content”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Adapt to different sizes and contexts. Content components must work across screen sizes, orientations, and multitasking configurations…
  2. Make content accessible. Charts need audio graph support. Images need alt text. Collections need proper VoiceOver navigation order. All…
  3. Maintain visual hierarchy. Use spacing, sizing, and grouping to establish clear information hierarchy. Primary content should be visually…
  4. Use system components first. Evaluate UICollectionView, SwiftUI Charts, WKWebView before building custom. System components come with…
  5. Respect platform conventions. A collection on tvOS uses large lockups with parallax. The same collection on iOS uses compact cells with…
  6. Handle empty states. Show a meaningful empty state with guidance on how to populate it, not a blank screen.
  7. Optimize for performance. Use lazy loading, cell reuse, pagination, and prefetching for large datasets.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3ec08f5. 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.

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

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • raintree.technology

    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

Hig Components Content loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 210 tokens; SKILL.md has 501 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~210
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~4.5k

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.

Apple HIG: Content Components

Check for .claude/apple-design-context.md before asking questions. Use existing context and only ask for information not already covered.

Key Principles

  1. Adapt to different sizes and contexts. Content components must work across screen sizes, orientations, and multitasking configurations. Use Auto Layout and size classes.

  2. Make content accessible. Charts need audio graph support. Images need alt text. Collections need proper VoiceOver navigation order. All content components need labels and descriptions.

  3. Maintain visual hierarchy. Use spacing, sizing, and grouping to establish clear information hierarchy. Primary content should be visually prominent.

  4. Use system components first. Evaluate UICollectionView, SwiftUI Charts, WKWebView before building custom. System components come with built-in accessibility and platform adaptation.

  5. Respect platform conventions. A collection on tvOS uses large lockups with parallax. The same collection on iOS uses compact cells with touch targets. On visionOS, content gains depth and hover effects.

  6. Handle empty states. Show a meaningful empty state with guidance on how to populate it, not a blank screen.

  7. Optimize for performance. Use lazy loading, cell reuse, pagination, and prefetching for large datasets.

Output Format

  1. Component recommendation with rationale, referencing the relevant HIG reference file.
  2. Configuration guidance -- key properties and setup.
  3. Accessibility requirements for the recommended component.
  4. Platform-specific notes for targeted platforms.

Questions to Ask

  1. What type of content? (Quantitative data, images, web content, browsable collection, share action?)
  2. Which platforms?
  3. Static or dynamic content?
  4. How much content? (Few items vs hundreds/thousands affects component choice and optimization.)
  • hig-foundations -- Color, typography, accessibility, and image guidelines
  • hig-patterns -- Data visualization, sharing, and loading patterns
  • hig-components-layout -- Structural containers (scroll views, lists, split views) hosting content
  • hig-platforms -- Platform-specific component behavior (lockups on tvOS, web views on macOS)
