devicecheck-app-attest-workflow

devicecheck-app-attest-workflow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from gaelic-ghost/socket. It costs 126 tokens per session (2,508 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide for adding Apple DeviceCheck and App Attest to an app. DeviceCheck stores two per-device values, while App Attest provides an app-instance integrity signal that a server can verify.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to implement or diagnose device tokens, App Attest keys, attestations, assertions, receipts, Apple app IDs, and the handoff between an Apple-platform app and its backend.
Why use it?
It separates app-side Apple API calls from server-side trust checks, while accounting for signing, entitlements, challenges, replay protection, rollout, and sandbox-versus-production differences.

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

devicecheck-app-attest-workflow 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 1mo 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.

DeviceCheck App Attest Workflow

Purpose

Guide DeviceCheck and App Attest implementation decisions without confusing app-side Apple framework calls with server-side trust decisions.

The practical decision is whether the app needs DeviceCheck two-bit device state, App Attest app-instance integrity, both signals, or a different auth/session/sync workflow. The skill keeps Apple docs, Xcode signing state, server challenges, replay protection, rollout constraints, and backend handoffs visible before implementation starts.

When To Use

  • Use this skill when adding or diagnosing DCDevice, generateToken(completionHandler:), Apple DeviceCheck query/update/validate endpoints, or the two per-device bits Apple stores for an app.
  • Use this skill when adding or diagnosing DCAppAttestService, generateKey(completionHandler:), attestKey(_:clientDataHash:completionHandler:), generateAssertion(_:clientDataHash:completionHandler:), or DCError.
  • Use this skill when the work involves App Attest App ID registration, DeviceCheck capabilities, the com.apple.developer.devicecheck.appattest-environment entitlement, sandbox versus production behavior, TestFlight or App Store rollout, Enterprise distribution, Developer ID, or macOS signing validation.
  • Use this skill when the app and server need a challenge, attestation, assertion, receipt, public-key, counter, or fraud-risk metric contract.
  • Use this skill when replacing custom device identifiers, local-only jailbreak checks, receipt-only abuse checks, or ad hoc risk flags with Apple-supported DeviceCheck or App Attest signals.
  • Recommend swift-openapi-client-workflow when the primary task is generated API client setup for the app-to-server transport.
  • Recommend xcode-build-run-workflow when the next step is target setup, entitlements, signing, App ID capability wiring, build, run, simulator, device, or guarded Xcode project mutation.
  • Recommend xcode-testing-workflow when the next step is repeatable XCTest, XCUITest, simulator/device matrix checks, or test-plan setup.
  • Recommend server-side Swift, OpenAPI, RPC, or backend-specific workflows when the primary task is implementing server verification, persistence, JWT generation, API routes, or fraud-risk policy.
  • Recommend the broader client auth and sync workflow when the request is really Keychain storage, Sign in with Apple, ASWebAuthenticationSession, token refresh, logout, multi-account state, or app sync.
