awesome-swift-macos-apps is a curated list of open-source macOS applications written in Swift, covering categories such as productivity, utilities, development, and media. It helps macOS developers study practical Swift implementations and find code examples for building desktop applications.
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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00057 | $0.01072 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00028 | $0.00536 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00214 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00107 |
Grade A, and why
awesome-swift-macos-apps-docs 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 122 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Awesome Swift macOS Apps Docs
Use this skill when the task is to maintain app entries in this repository's bilingual docs.
Use this skill for
- Adding a new app entry to
README.mdandREADME.zh.md - Updating an existing app entry in both files
- Fixing wrong links, duplicate entries, inconsistent descriptions, or mismatched category placement
- Moving an existing app entry to a better category while preserving local document structure
- Keeping reply format consistent for this repository
Do not use this skill for code changes in other projects.
For supported files and default scope boundaries, see references/supported-files.md. For category-specific notes and placement heuristics, see references/category-notes.md.
Repository Targets
Always update both files together:
README.mdREADME.zh.md
Core workflow
- Identify the most appropriate category by searching existing README files for similar apps or keywords.
- Read the local context around the target section in both languages before editing.
- Check whether the app already exists in either file.
- Add or update both entries together.
- Keep the description to one sentence in each language.
- Verify placement, wording, and formatting with
rgandgit diff.
Entry Rules
For each new app entry:
- Use a single concise sentence to describe what the app is
- Prefer describing the core function, not a feature list
- Do not emphasize that it is a macOS app unless that is essential to understanding the app
- Keep English and Chinese descriptions aligned in meaning, but do not translate mechanically
- Preserve existing markdown format, badges, and ordering style used in the target section
- Keep naming consistent with the user's request; if the repo name differs from the display name, follow the user's requested display name unless there is a strong reason not to
Curation Rules
- Match the local section used by each document instead of assuming both files are structured identically.
- Preserve existing ordering within a section. In practice this is usually alphabetical by app name or grouped with similar nearby tools.
- Do not rewrite neighboring entries unless needed for the requested task.
- Keep edits narrowly scoped to the requested listing work.
What ships with it
2 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.
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.

awesome-swift-macos-apps-docs is a skill published in the GitHub repository jaywcjlove/awesome-swift-macos-apps (1,594 stars, last pushed today), licensed CC0-1.0. It adds 57 tokens to every session and 1,072 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
