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

search-macos26-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 6d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (scripts/build_cache.py, scripts/probe_symbol.py, scripts/search_symbols.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Search macOS 26 Docs

Use the local Xcode macOS SDK as the source of truth for macOS 26 APIs. Prefer this skill before web search when the task asks what is available in the current SDK, how a SwiftUI/AppKit symbol is declared, what availability it has, or whether a macOS 26 API exists.

Quick Start

Build or refresh the cached symbol graphs:

python3 "$HOME/.codex/skills/search-macos26-docs/scripts/build_cache.py"

Search SwiftUI, SwiftUICore, and AppKit symbol docs:

python3 "$HOME/.codex/skills/search-macos26-docs/scripts/search_symbols.py glass button style
python3 "$HOME/.codex/skills/search-macos26-docs/scripts/search_symbols.py window toolbar --macos26
python3 "$HOME/.codex/skills/search-macos26-docs/scripts/search_symbols.py NSHostingScene --module SwiftUI --module AppKit --limit 12

Probe a symbol or concept with exact SDK source snippets attached:

python3 "$HOME/.codex/skills/search-macos26-docs/scripts/probe_symbol.py" ZoomNavigationTransition --module SwiftUI
python3 "$HOME/.codex/skills/search-macos26-docs/scripts/search_symbols.py" MTKView --module MetalKit --verify-interfaces --limit 12

Discover SDK modules before deciding where to search:

python3 "$HOME/.codex/skills/search-macos26-docs/scripts/search_symbols.py" --find-module metal
python3 "$HOME/.codex/skills/search-macos26-docs/scripts/search_symbols.py" --list-modules

The search script auto-builds the default cache on first use. Use --force on build_cache.py when Xcode changes or search results look stale.

Workflow

  1. Resolve the active SDK with xcrun --sdk macosx --show-sdk-path.
  2. Use scripts/search_symbols.py for prose docs, symbol names, declarations, and availability. This reads cached swift-symbolgraph-extract output from the local SDK.
  3. Add --verify-interfaces or use scripts/probe_symbol.py when exact compiler declarations, overloads, underscored symbols, generated attributes, or platform availability matter. Verification searches .swiftinterface, headers, and apinotes and reports source snippets plus diagnostics.
  4. Use --find-module PATTERN or --list-modules to discover candidate SDK modules, then rerun with explicit --module values.
  5. Cite findings as local SDK facts. If a symbol is not found in symbol graphs, check sourceOnlyMatches from --verify-interfaces before concluding it does not exist.

Files

What ships with it

6 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.
