swift-ios-project

A project guide for a native iOS app built with Swift 6.1+, SwiftUI, and Swift Package Manager. It describes the app's Model-View structure, folder layout, testing tools, concurrency rules, and accessibility expectations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding or changing iOS features, organising project code, working with SwiftUI state, writing tests, or following the app's build and accessibility practices.
Why use it?
It helps an agent understand how the codebase is organised and prevents it from applying patterns the project does not use.

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.

Made for: Cursor.

Per session 49 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 2,702 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

swift-ios-project 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 2d 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.

Project-wide AI coding guidelines for Cursor (Swift iOS app)

Project Overview

This is a native iOS application built with Swift 6.1+ and SwiftUI. The codebase targets iOS 18.0 and later, allowing full use of the latest Swift and iOS APIs without backward compatibility concerns. All concurrency is handled with Swift Concurrency (async/await, actors, @MainActor isolation) ensuring thread-safe code.

  • Frameworks & Tech: SwiftUI for UI, Swift Concurrency with strict mode, Swift Package Manager for modular architecture
  • Architecture: Model-View (MV) pattern using pure SwiftUI state management. We avoid MVVM and instead leverage SwiftUI's built-in state mechanisms (@State, @Observable, @Environment, @Binding)
  • Testing: Swift Testing framework with modern @Test macros and #expect/#require assertions
  • Platform: iOS (Simulator and Device)
  • Accessibility: Full accessibility support using SwiftUI's accessibility modifiers

Project Structure

The project follows a workspace + SPM package architecture:

YourApp/
├── Config/                         # XCConfig build settings
│   ├── Debug.xcconfig
│   ├── Release.xcconfig
│   ├── Shared.xcconfig
│   └── Tests.xcconfig
├── YourApp.xcworkspace/            # Workspace container
├── YourApp.xcodeproj/              # App shell (minimal wrapper)
├── YourApp/                        # App target - just the entry point
│   ├── Assets.xcassets/
│   ├── YourAppApp.swift           # @main entry point only
│   └── YourApp.xctestplan
├── YourAppPackage/                 # All features and business logic
│   ├── Package.swift
│   ├── Sources/
│   │   └── YourAppFeature/        # Feature modules
│   └── Tests/
│       └── YourAppFeatureTests/   # Swift Testing tests
└── YourAppUITests/                 # UI automation tests

Important: All development work should be done in the YourAppPackage Swift Package, not in the app project. The app project is merely a thin wrapper that imports and launches the package features.

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-ios-project is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository getsentry/XcodeBuildMCP-iOS-Template (43 stars, last pushed 1y ago), licensed MIT. It adds 49 tokens to every session and 2,702 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.
