site-to-ios-app

site-to-ios-app is a skill for Codex from JasonColapietro/ios-app-dev-skills. It costs 85 tokens per session (911 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for turning a website or web app into an iOS app, including a site audit, app-shell choice, native iOS features, build setup, and release checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess a site, choose between Capacitor and a native SwiftUI shell, plan the conversion, and prepare an iOS build.
Why use it?
It helps avoid shipping a simple web page wrapped in an app, which may fail Apple's review rules or provide little value on iOS.

Skill for Codex

Written for Codex: agents/openai.yaml present.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is python3 scripts/audit_site_for_ios.py https://example.com --out SITE_TO_IOS_AUDIT.md.

Good fit Use it to assess a site, choose between Capacitor and a native SwiftUI shell, plan the conversion, and prepare an iOS build.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

site-to-ios-app 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 12d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 90 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Site to iOS App

Principle

Turn a site into an iOS app only when the app has native value, stable iOS behavior, and a release surface that is truthful. A raw web page in a frame is not enough for an App Store-quality product.

This is the public Suede site-to-iOS workflow: audit first, choose the least risky shell or native strategy, add iOS-specific value, and run an "impeccable" ship gate before release.

Start Here

Read references/site-to-ios-runbook.md before scaffolding or changing an iOS wrapper.

If a URL is available, run the public audit helper:

python3 scripts/audit_site_for_ios.py https://example.com --out SITE_TO_IOS_AUDIT.md

Use templates/site-to-ios/SITE_TO_IOS_PLAN.md as the conversion artifact.

Strategy Decision

Choose one route and write down why:

  • Capacitor remote shell: live site remains the product surface and web deploys should update most content and behavior.
  • Capacitor bundled shell: static/SPA assets are packaged into the binary and updates require App Store release unless paired with live APIs.
  • Native SwiftUI shell with WebView: native navigation, settings, auth, push, share, error, and account surfaces wrap a site view.
  • Full native rebuild: use when the site is mostly content, has weak mobile UX, or carries high wrapper rejection risk.

Use ios-capacitor-shell for Capacitor implementation details. Use ios-swiftui-product when the app needs a native architecture or native shell. Use ios-aso-launch and ios-app-store-release for screenshots, metadata, and release gates.

App Store 4.2 Gate

Block or redesign the app when it is only a bookmark, content mirror, or unmodified website. Add native value before release:

  • iOS-native onboarding, empty states, errors, offline, and retry.
  • Native settings with support, privacy, terms, account deletion, restore, and notification controls where applicable.
  • Universal links or deep links.
  • Share sheet, widgets, push notifications, camera/media/file pickers, Apple Wallet, StoreKit, or other native capabilities only when they serve the app.
  • Safe-area, keyboard, navigation, dark/light mode, and dynamic type handling.

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.
