Automated safety checks
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.

About this skill
What it does
This skill enables seamless integration of SwiftUI views within UIKit applications, and vice versa. It allows developers to leverage the declarative UI paradigm of SwiftUI while maintaining compatibility with existing UIKit codebases. Specifically, it facilitates embedding SwiftUI views in UIKit view controllers and displaying UIKit content within SwiftUI environments.
When to use it
- Migrating a legacy UIKit app to SwiftUI incrementally: Allows you to introduce SwiftUI components gradually without rewriting the entire application at once.
- Reusing existing UIKit UI elements in a SwiftUI project: Avoids recreating functionality when you have established, well-tested UIKit views.
- Creating custom UI controls that combine SwiftUI and UIKit features: Enables building complex UIs by mixing the strengths of both frameworks.
- Integrating third-party UIKit libraries into a SwiftUI application: Allows leveraging existing UIKit components within your SwiftUI project.
Key capabilities
- Embedding SwiftUI views in UIKit view controllers.
- Displaying UIKit content within SwiftUI environments.
- Bridging between SwiftUI and UIKit layouts.
- Handling events and data flow across the two frameworks.
Example prompts
- "Show me how to embed a SwiftUI
Textview inside aUIViewController." - "Can you generate code to display a
WKWebViewwithin a SwiftUIView?" - “How do I pass data from a UIKit
UITextFieldto a SwiftUI view?”
Tips & gotchas
This skill assumes familiarity with both SwiftUI and UIKit. Be mindful of potential layout differences and coordinate system conversions when integrating views between the two frameworks, as they handle these aspects differently.
