What it does

Apple Mobile is an agent skill from tellahq/opensession. Build SwiftPM/xtool iOS apps and prepare explicitly approved ad-hoc or TestFlight releases through the apple-build and apple-release MCP servers.

Its SKILL.md is about 780 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Mobile, covering App store release, iOS development and MCP servers. It works with App Store Connect, Model Context Protocol and Swift. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve App store release
  • Tasks that involve iOS development
  • Tasks that involve MCP servers

Example prompts

  • “/apple-mobile”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Run apple_mobile_doctor.
  2. Run apple_mobile_inspect_project.
  3. Run apple_mobile_test where the package has host-portable tests.
  4. Use apple_mobile_build_unsigned for a non-signing build.
  5. Inspect generated IPAs with apple_mobile_inspect_ipa.
  6. To show an app from a local Mac workspace, build an iphonesimulator .app

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 80702e8. 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

Apple Mobile loads about 781 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 40 tokens; SKILL.md has 397 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~40
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~781

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 mobile workflow

Use apple_mobile_doctor and apple_mobile_inspect_project before any build.

Safety rules

  • Never paste or print an App Store Connect private key, Apple password, certificate private key, or provisioning secret.
  • Treat xtool as a development-build backend only. Do not claim its current development profiles are ad-hoc or App Store profiles.
  • Never release from a dirty worktree or an unapproved branch.
  • Never call apple_release_execute in the same response that creates a plan. Show the full project path, plan ID, commit, version/build, destination, effects, and any IPA filename and SHA-256. A signed-in allowed person must approve that exact pending plan later in Settings → Integrations → Apple mobile.
  • The execute confirmation must be the full commit SHA from the reviewed plan.
  • TestFlight upload is not App Review submission or public release. This integration deliberately exposes neither action.
  • Do not revoke certificates.

Development

  1. Run apple_mobile_doctor.
  2. Run apple_mobile_inspect_project.
  3. Run apple_mobile_test where the package has host-portable tests.
  4. Use apple_mobile_build_unsigned for a non-signing build.
  5. Inspect generated IPAs with apple_mobile_inspect_ipa.
  6. To show an app from a local Mac workspace, build an iphonesimulator .app inside the workspace and call opensession-portals start_simulator_portal with its workspace-relative appPath. This needs full Xcode and idb. Open the returned Portal at /, exercise the app, and report the URL. The person can pin it beside the conversation. A listening viewer may still be booting its simulator; verify the screen before claiming the app works. Use the returned name with restart_portal after rebuilding or stop_portal to release it. Restart creates a fresh device. This does not enable hot reload. See docs/simulator-portals.md in the Open Session repository.

Ad-hoc or TestFlight

  1. Run apple_release_doctor and inspect the project.
  2. Create a plan using apple_release_plan_adhoc, apple_release_plan_testflight, or apple_release_plan_upload.
  3. Present the full project path, plan ID, commit, effects, and any IPA filename and SHA-256, then stop. The planning response cannot authorize execution.
  4. Ask a signed-in allowed person to approve the exact pending plan in Settings → Integrations → Apple mobile.
  5. In a later turn, call apple_release_execute with the plan ID and full planned commit SHA. The server consumes the one-time approval grant.
  6. Report the output artifact SHA-256 or upload result. Do not imply Apple processing has completed unless separately verified.

Repository contract

Each app must commit .opensession/apple-mobile.json. Configured paths are relative to the project and cannot escape it. Distribution operations require the xcode backend; xtool is intentionally rejected for distribution.

Can I use Apple Mobile in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add tellahq/opensession --skill apple-mobile -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/apple-mobile, .gemini/skills/apple-mobile, .github/skills/apple-mobile and .opencode/skills/apple-mobile in your project.

What does Apple Mobile need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Apple Mobile is instructions for the agent only.

Does Apple Mobile access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Apple Mobile safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Apple Mobile use?

Apple Mobile is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Apple Mobile use?

About 781 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 3.1k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
