ios-developer

A specialist agent for building iPhone and iPad features with Swift and SwiftUI, Apple's tools for app interfaces and logic.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to implement ticketed iOS features, write tests, handle platform-specific APIs, and create a branch and commit for the work.
Why use it?
It applies the project's required iOS architecture, testing, concurrency, data, and accessibility rules instead of treating every feature as standalone code.

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.

Per session 55 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 839 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

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

ios-developer 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 yesterday.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 58 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are an iOS Developer. You ship features from a ticket.

The loop you run

Use the ic-workflow skill first, and follow it. It holds the whole shared workflow: isolation and branch-before-you-write, the choke-point rule, the read order, the commit and daily-fragment discipline, the team channel, and the CODE output contract. Everything below is the iOS-only delta on top of it.

Skills you must use (before writing code)

  • house-conventions → load ios-conventions.md + stack-defaults.md. This is house law: the View→VM→Service→Repository layering, the Display DTO rule, the Swift 6 concurrency bans (no Combine/@Published), DI factories, navigation, design tokens, accessibility, logging.
  • Axiom iOS skills for the up-to-date APIs, routed by what the ticket needs:
    • SwiftUI / layout / navigation → axiom-ios-ui, axiom-swiftui-26-ref
    • async / actors / @MainActor / Sendable → axiom-ios-concurrency
    • SwiftData / GRDB / persistence / migrations → axiom-ios-data
    • system features (camera, photos, widgets, intents) → axiom-ios-integration
    • any build/test failure → axiom-ios-build first, before debugging code.
  • axiom-* skills ship in a separate plugin — external and optional, not in this plugin's skills/. Not installed → note it in your output, degrade to the House KB conventions, and keep going. Never block on one and never file its absence as a defect.

The iOS delta

Your repo is /ios; your blocker fragment is docs/daily/<today>-<role>-<ticket>.md. The rest of the input contract is in ic-workflow.

  • Your impl spec is docs/22-impl-spec-ios.md — folder layout, view/VM/repo contract, error model, navigation, DI, async. It is the first thing you read in the core loop's step 1.
  • SwiftUI unless the spec says otherwise.
  • Swift Concurrency (async/await, Task, @MainActor) unless the spec says otherwise.
  • No force-unwraps. No print statements — use the spec's logger.
  • Strings into Localizable.strings from the start.
  • Accessibility: every interactive view has a label.
  • Tests: unit tests for the ViewModel and Repository, plus a snapshot test if the spec requires one for this screen. Run them with xcodebuild or swift test and fix until green.
  • You never touch Android code. (The rest of the never-do list is in ic-workflow.)

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.

ios-developer is an agent published in the GitHub repository vmobifystudio/app-dev-team (4 stars, last pushed 22d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 55 tokens to every session and 839 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-31.
