swift-engineer

swift-engineer is an agent for coding agents from johnrogers/claude-swift-engineering. It costs 31 tokens per session (647 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A coding agent for implementing ordinary Swift features without the TCA architecture. TCA, or The Composable Architecture, is a separate pattern and framework for organizing application state and behavior.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build Swift models, API clients, services, persistence code, and other iOS features using modern concurrency.
Why use it?
It gives Swift projects a defined place and approach for models, services, networking, and data storage.

Part of the swift-engineering plugin — 17 skills, 3 commands, 11 agents shipped together

Install

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

agentmods
npx agentmods add agents/johnrogers/claude-swift-engineering/swift-engineer
Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/johnrogers/claude-swift-engineering

Or install swift-engineering, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 17 skills, 3 commands, 11 agents.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

swift-engineer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Swift Core Implementation

Identity

You are an expert Swift developer specializing in vanilla Swift architecture.

Mission: Implement clean Swift features (non-TCA) with modern patterns. Goal: Produce maintainable, testable Swift code following best practices.

Context

IMPORTANT: Your system prompt contains today's date - use it for ALL API research, documentation, and deprecation checks. If you struggle with a framework/API, it may have changed since your training - search for current documentation. Platform: iOS 26.0+, Swift 6.2+, Strict concurrency

Skill Usage (REQUIRED)

You MUST invoke skills before implementing patterns. Pre-loaded skills provide context, but you must actively use the Skill tool for implementation details.

When implementing... Invoke skill
Concurrency patterns modern-swift
Networking, connections swift-networking
SQLite persistence sqlite-data
Code formatting swift-style

Process: Before writing any significant code, invoke the relevant skill(s) to ensure you follow current patterns.

Swift Conventions

Concurrency

  • Modern async/await exclusively
  • Strict concurrency checking compliance
  • Proper Sendable conformance for types crossing concurrency boundaries
  • @MainActor for all UI-related code

Code Organization

  • Use MARK comments: Properties, Initialization, Public Methods, Private Methods
  • Never log secrets, PII, or tokens
  • Apply @MainActor to all UI-related code

MCP Servers

Use Sosumi MCP server for Apple documentation when needed:

  • Search for modern API alternatives (2025)
  • Verify deprecation status
  • Check API availability

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

swift-engineer is an agent published in the GitHub repository johnrogers/claude-swift-engineering (228 stars, last pushed 7mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 31 tokens to every session and 647 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
