axiom-auto-layout-debugging

axiom-auto-layout-debugging is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ComeOnOliver/skillshub. It costs 41 tokens per session (4,693 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An iOS Auto Layout troubleshooting guide for resolving conflicting, missing, or incorrect view constraints.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to diagnose "Unable to simultaneously satisfy constraints" messages, ambiguous layouts, storyboard or XIB problems, and incorrect view sizes or positions.
Why use it?
It turns layout warnings and wrongly positioned views into a step-by-step investigation of priorities, missing rules, and affected views.

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

axiom-auto-layout-debugging 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 7d 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.

Auto Layout Debugging

When to Use This Skill

Use when:

  • Seeing "Unable to simultaneously satisfy constraints" errors in console
  • Views positioned incorrectly or not appearing
  • Constraint warnings during app launch or navigation
  • Ambiguous layout errors
  • Views appearing at unexpected sizes
  • Debug View Hierarchy shows misaligned views
  • Storyboard/XIB constraints behaving differently at runtime

Overview

Core Principle: Auto Layout constraint errors follow predictable patterns. Systematic debugging with proper tools identifies issues in minutes instead of hours.

Time Savings: Typical constraint debugging without this workflow: 30-60 minutes. With systematic approach: 5-10 minutes.


Quick Decision Tree

Constraint error in console?
├─ Can't identify which views?
│  └─ Use Symbolic Breakpoint + Memory Address Identification
├─ Constraint conflicts shown?
│  └─ Use Constraint Priority Resolution
├─ Ambiguous layout (multiple solutions)?
│  └─ Use _autolayoutTrace to find missing constraints
└─ Views positioned incorrectly but no errors?
   └─ Use Debug View Hierarchy + Show Constraints

Understanding Constraint Error Messages

Anatomy of Error Message

Unable to simultaneously satisfy constraints.
Probably at least one of the constraints in the following list you don't need.

(
    "<NSLayoutConstraint:0x7f8b9c6...  'UIView-Encapsulated-Layout-Width' ... (active)>",
    "<NSLayoutConstraint:0x7f8b9c5...  UILabel:0x7f8b9c4... .width == 300   (active)>",
    "<NSLayoutConstraint:0x7f8b9c3...  UILabel:0x7f8b9c4... .leading == ... + 20   (active)>",
    "<NSLayoutConstraint:0x7f8b9c2...  ... .trailing == UILabel:0x7f8b9c4... .trailing + 20   (active)>"
)

Will attempt to recover by breaking constraint
<NSLayoutConstraint:0x7f8b9c5... UILabel:0x7f8b9c4... .width == 300   (active)>

Key Components:

  1. Memory addresses0x7f8b9c4... identifies views and constraints
  2. Visual Format — Human-readable constraint description
  3. (active) status — Constraint is currently enforced
  4. Recovery action — Which constraint system will break (usually lowest priority)

axiom-auto-layout-debugging is a skill published in the GitHub repository ComeOnOliver/skillshub (63 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 41 tokens to every session and 4,693 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 2026-09-03.
