hig-project-context

hig-project-context is a skill for Claude Code from raintree-technology/hig-doctor. It costs 113 tokens per session (1,133 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A shared project note for Apple app design work. It records the app’s purpose, target Apple devices, operating-system versions, and relevant technical details so other design guidance can use the same context.

In plain words
What is it for?
Setting up or updating the design context for a new or existing iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, watchOS, or visionOS project.
Why use it?
It avoids repeatedly asking for project details and helps keep design advice consistent with the app and its supported devices.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • medium Rogue Agent · line 26
    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

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

hig-project-context 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 11d 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.

Apple HIG: Project Context

Create and maintain .claude/apple-design-context.md so other HIG skills can skip redundant questions.

Check for .claude/apple-design-context.md before asking questions. Use existing context and only ask for information not already covered.

Gathering Context

Before asking questions, auto-discover context from:

  1. README.md -- Product description, platform targets
  2. Package.swift / .xcodeproj -- Supported platforms, minimum OS versions, dependencies
  3. Info.plist -- App category, required capabilities, supported orientations
  4. Existing code -- Import statements reveal frameworks (SwiftUI vs UIKit, HealthKit, etc.)
  5. Assets.xcassets -- Color assets, icon sets, dark mode variants
  6. Accessibility audit -- Grep for accessibility modifiers/attributes

Present findings and ask the user to confirm or correct. Then gather anything still missing:

1. Product Overview

  • What does the app do? (one sentence)
  • Category (productivity, social, health, game, utility, etc.)
  • Stage (concept, development, shipped, redesign)

2. Target Platforms

  • Which Apple platforms? (iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, watchOS, visionOS)
  • Minimum OS versions
  • Universal or platform-specific?

3. Technology Stack

  • UI framework: SwiftUI, UIKit, AppKit, or mixed?
  • Architecture: single-window, multi-window, document-based?
  • Apple technologies in use? (HealthKit, CloudKit, ARKit, etc.)

4. Design System

  • System defaults or custom design system?
  • Brand colors, fonts, icon style?
  • Dark mode and Dynamic Type support status

5. Accessibility Requirements

  • Target level (baseline, enhanced, comprehensive)
  • Specific considerations (VoiceOver, Switch Control, etc.)
  • Regulatory requirements (WCAG, Section 508)

6. User Context

  • Primary personas (1-3)
  • Key use cases and environments (desk, on-the-go, glanceable, immersive)
  • Known pain points or design challenges

7. Existing Design Assets

  • Figma/Sketch files?
  • Apple Design Resources in use?
  • Existing component library?

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.
