What is /swiftui-skills?
SwiftUI is opinionated. Most AI agents don't know those opinions.
/swiftui-skills is a collection of skills built from Apple-authored documentation that ships inside Xcode.
These skills condition AI agents to follow the same patterns Apple expects in real SwiftUI apps.
- Uses Apple-written guidance from inside Xcode
- Reduces hallucinations and non-idiomatic SwiftUI
- Open source and local-first
Why this exists
AI agents struggle with SwiftUI not because the models are weak, but because SwiftUI encodes architectural and design decisions that are rarely written down in public documentation.
Apple already solved this internally.
/swiftui-skills makes that guidance usable.
What's included
The current skill set covers:
All content comes from Apple documentation included with Xcode.
How it works
/swiftui-skills works by giving AI agents better context, not new models.
The installer extracts Apple documentation from your local Xcode install
Skills define how agents should use that documentation
Your AI agent uses the docs as source of truth when writing code
No Apple documentation is redistributed. Everything is extracted locally on install.
Who this is for
- iOS developers refactoring into SwiftUI
- Developers using AI to write SwiftUI-heavy apps
- People working with App Intents, StoreKit, Widgets, or visionOS
- Anyone tired of fighting non-idiomatic AI-generated SwiftUI
Open source
/swiftui-skills is open source.
The skill definitions, prompts, and installer are public. Apple documentation is extracted locally from Xcode and is never redistributed.
You can inspect the installer before running it.
Status
Early and evolving. Expect changes as Apple updates Xcode.
