Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned rshankras/claude-code-apple-skills at 9ffb831382.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

The ios-development skill enables AI agents to build, debug, and maintain native iOS applications using Swift and SwiftUI. It handles everything from project initialization to complex UI rendering and performance optimization within the Xcode environment.

When to use it

  • Generating complete Swift code for new iOS features or refactoring existing modules.
  • Debugging runtime errors in Xcode simulators or physical devices.
  • Creating custom SwiftUI views with specific animations and layouts.
  • Integrating third-party SDKs like Firebase, MapKit, or HealthKit into an app.

Key capabilities

  • Swift syntax generation and completion for iOS frameworks.
  • SwiftUI view construction and state management logic.
  • Xcode project configuration and dependency management (Swift Package Manager).
  • Debugging assistance for crashes, memory leaks, and UI glitches.
  • Unit test creation and execution strategies for iOS apps.

Example prompts

  • "Create a SwiftUI ListView that fetches and displays user data from a REST API with error handling."
  • "Debug this crash log occurring in my iOS app when the user rotates the device to landscape mode."
  • "Write a Swift function using Combine to listen for changes in the CoreLocation manager and update the UI accordingly."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your AI agent has access to the latest Xcode version documentation or installed frameworks, as iOS APIs evolve rapidly. Always verify generated code against specific iOS deployment targets (e.g., iOS 17+) to avoid deprecated method warnings.
