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.

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 | $0.00064 | $0.01452 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00032 | $0.00726 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00290 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00145 |
Grade A, and why
building-apple-platform-products 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.

Building Apple Platform Products
Build, test, and archive Swift packages and Xcode projects for Apple platforms.
When to Use This Skill
Use this skill when you need to:
- Build an iOS, macOS, tvOS, watchOS, or visionOS app
- Build a Swift package
- Run unit tests or UI tests
- Create an archive for distribution
- Discover project structure (schemes, targets, configurations)
Tool Selection
| Project Type | Primary Tool | When to Use |
|---|---|---|
Standalone Package.swift |
swift build |
Libraries, CLI tools, cross-platform Swift (no .xcodeproj) |
.xcworkspace |
xcodebuild -workspace |
CocoaPods or multi-project setups |
.xcodeproj |
xcodebuild |
Standard Xcode projects (including those with SPM dependencies) |
Important: The swift build / swift test commands only work for standalone Swift packages. If a Swift package is embedded as a submodule within an Xcode project, you must use xcodebuild with the appropriate scheme—the Swift CLI cannot orchestrate builds in that context.
Project Discovery
Before building, discover the project structure:
# Find what project files exist
ls Package.swift *.xcworkspace *.xcodeproj 2>/dev/null
# List schemes and targets (auto-detects project)
xcodebuild -list
# Describe package (standalone SPM only)
swift package describe
Note: When an Xcode project references a local Swift package, each package target gets its own scheme (named after the target, not the package). Use these schemes to build individual targets without building the entire app.
For mixed projects, shared schemes, or detailed output parsing, see project-discovery.md.
Swift Package Manager Commands
Important: These commands only work for standalone Swift packages, not Swift Package Manager submodules in Xcode projects.
| Goal | Command |
|---|---|
| Build (debug) | swift build |
| Build (release) | swift build -c release |
| Run executable | swift run [<target>] |
| Run tests | swift test |
| Run specific test | swift test --filter <TestClass.testMethod> |
| Show binary path | swift build --show-bin-path |
| Clean | swift package clean |
| Initialize | swift package init [--type library|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.

building-apple-platform-products is a skill published in the GitHub repository rhyean88/apple-platform-build-tools-claude-code-plugin (3 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 64 tokens to every session and 1,452 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 2026-08-31.
