swiftui-macos

swiftui-macos is a skill for Claude Code from kageroumado/swiftui-macos-skill. It costs 150 tokens per session (1,073 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Expert guidance for building and reviewing SwiftUI apps for macOS, Apple’s desktop operating system. It covers how views, state, background work, performance, and AppKit integration behave at runtime.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build SwiftUI views, review macOS SwiftUI code, fix observation issues, handle concurrency, design state ownership, or connect SwiftUI with AppKit.
Why use it?
It helps avoid subtle problems involving changing data, asynchronous work, view updates, and macOS platform APIs. Relevant guidance can be selected for the specific task.

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

swiftui-macos 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 10d 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 — 62 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Guide SwiftUI development for macOS apps. Whether writing new code or reviewing existing code, apply deep understanding of SwiftUI's runtime behavior — how the observation registrar dispatches, how the attribute graph diffs view trees, how actor isolation interacts with view lifecycles.

How to Use

Writing code: Load relevant references before implementation. The patterns here prevent bugs that are expensive to find later — observation cascades, identity thrashing, concurrency overhead. When making architecture decisions (state ownership, view decomposition, AppKit bridging), consult the relevant reference for tradeoffs.

Reviewing code: Check each reference area systematically. Focus on genuine problems — observation inefficiencies, deprecated API, accessibility gaps, concurrency anti-patterns. Don't flag obvious issues or invent problems.

Partial scope: Load only what the task needs. Not every change requires all eight references.

References

Reference Load when
references/observation.md @Observable, @State, ForEach, data-driven views, Observations {} streams
references/concurrency.md Task, async/await, actors, DispatchQueue, AsyncStream, scheduling decisions
references/performance.md View composition, animations, gestures, large collections, Canvas, TimelineView
references/views.md View decomposition, navigation, .task(id:), preference keys, custom Layout
references/data.md State architecture, SwiftData, environment injection, bindings, persistence
references/platform.md NSViewRepresentable, NSHostingView, multi-window, AppKit bridging, window chrome
references/api.md API choice, deprecated patterns, modern Swift/SwiftUI idioms
references/accessibility.md VoiceOver, keyboard navigation, Dynamic Type, Reduce Motion

Principles

  • Target macOS 26+, Swift 6.2 with strict concurrency and @MainActor default isolation.
  • Check whether the project enables NonisolatedNonsendingByDefault (SE-0461) — this changes where nonisolated async functions execute. See references/concurrency.md.
  • Prefer SwiftUI-native solutions. Use AppKit (NSViewRepresentable, NSHostingView, NSWindow) only when SwiftUI has no equivalent.
  • Understand the mechanism. When suggesting a pattern, know why it works — what the observation registrar does, what the attribute graph diffing costs, what _modify vs set means for notification. Rules without understanding produce cargo-culted code.
  • Do not introduce third-party frameworks without asking. Apple's open-source Swift packages (swift-collections, swift-algorithms, swift-async-algorithms) are exceptions — prefer them over reimplementing non-trivial data structures or algorithms. See references/api.md.

What ships with it

8 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.
