feedback-assistant-workflow

A guide for preparing and submitting Apple Feedback Assistant reports about bugs, crashes, regressions, enhancement requests, documentation, beta software, and related issues.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write the title and reproduction steps, record expected and actual results, document the environment and frequency, identify regressions, and prepare logs, projects, screenshots, recordings, or system reports.
Why use it?
It turns scattered evidence into one reproducible report and checks attachments for relevance and privacy before submission.

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

feedback-assistant-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 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.

Feedback Assistant Workflow

Purpose

Prepare one actionable Apple report at a time. Own report quality, evidence selection, privacy review, and the Feedback Assistant handoff; do not replace the specialist workflow that diagnoses the underlying problem.

Required Evidence

  1. Classify the report as a bug, crash, regression, enhancement, documentation issue, or Foundation Models behavior issue. Route security and privacy vulnerabilities to Apple's security reporting program instead of ordinary Feedback Assistant.
  2. State one concise title, environment, minimal reproduction, expected result, actual result, frequency, and regression range when known. Keep unrelated issues in separate reports.
  3. Build an attachment manifest before opening the submit path. Include source, collection time, purpose, and privacy review for each log, sample project, System Information Report, recording, screenshot, or .json feedback attachment.
  4. Hand off diagnosis to the owning workflow when needed: ios-runtime-forensics-workflow for runtime evidence, xcode-debugger-mcp-workflow for a debugging session, xcode-device-hub-workflow for connected-device evidence, and explore-apple-swift-docs for API routing.

Feedback Assistant App And Web Workflow

  1. Prefer the Feedback Assistant app on Mac, iPhone, or iPad when timely diagnostics matter. Use the website only when the evidence was captured manually or the app is unavailable.
  2. On this Mac, inspect com.apple.appleseed.FeedbackAssistant. Its signed-in main window exposes Inbox, Drafts, Submitted, Requests, team mailboxes when available, search, and New Feedback.
  3. Select the narrowest topic and product area. Verify the report describes one issue before drafting or staging it.
  4. Keep a staged report in Drafts until its prose and attachment manifest have been reviewed. Record the Feedback Assistant ID only after a report has been submitted.
  5. If Apple requests more information, preserve the original report's scope and attach only the requested, reviewed evidence.

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.

feedback-assistant-workflow is a skill published in the GitHub repository gaelic-ghost/socket (7 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 87 tokens to every session and 891 once invoked, about $0.0004 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.
