apple-hig-skills

apple-hig-skills is a plugin for Claude Code from raintree-technology/hig-doctor. Its manifest loads nothing; the 14 skills it bundles cost 2,295 tokens per session together, scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of Apple Human Interface Guidelines (HIG) reference skills and an auditor for checking interface code against those guidelines. It covers Apple frameworks as well as several cross-platform UI technologies.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to look up Apple interface guidance, search HIG topics, audit a project or file, and review UI code written with SwiftUI, UIKit, AppKit, web frameworks, Android tools, React Native, or Flutter.
Why use it?
It helps find interface and accessibility rule violations without checking the HIG manually. The auditor explains which guideline a finding relates to.

Security

Grade A, and why

apple-hig-skills 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 8d 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.

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.
