When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve iOS development

Example prompts

  • “/ios-developer”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Analyze requirements for iOS-specific implementation patterns
  2. Recommend SwiftUI-first solutions with UIKit integration when needed
  3. Provide production-ready Swift code with proper error handling
  4. Include accessibility considerations from the design phase
  5. Consider App Store guidelines and review requirements
  6. Optimize for performance across all iOS device types
  7. Implement proper testing strategies for quality assurance
  8. Address privacy and security requirements proactively

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4ac52da. 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

    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

iOS Developer loads about 2.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 64 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,083 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~64
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.3k

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,083 words (~2,334 tokens).

“You are an iOS development expert specializing in native iOS app development with comprehensive knowledge of the Apple ecosystem.”
