deep-linking is a skill for Claude Code from rshankras/claude-code-apple-skills. It costs 47 tokens per session (1,751 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A setup for opening specific parts of a mobile app from links, URL schemes, or voice commands. It covers custom links, HTTPS Universal Links, and Apple's Siri Shortcuts and App Intents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to add custom URL handling, Universal Links, Associated Domains, Siri commands, or Shortcuts that navigate to specific app content.
Why use it?
It lets outside links or commands take users directly to the relevant screen instead of opening the app at its default starting point.

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 →

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

deep-linking scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 8d 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.

Deep Linking Generator

Generate deep linking infrastructure with URL schemes, Universal Links, and App Intents for Siri/Shortcuts.

When This Skill Activates

  • User wants to handle custom URL schemes (myapp://)
  • User mentions Universal Links or Associated Domains
  • User wants Siri Shortcuts or App Intents
  • User needs to navigate to specific content from external sources

Pre-Generation Checks

Before generating, verify:

  1. Existing Deep Link Handling

    # Check for existing URL handling
    grep -r "onOpenURL\|open.*url\|handleOpen" --include="*.swift" | head -5
    
  2. URL Scheme in Info.plist

    # Check for CFBundleURLTypes
    find . -name "Info.plist" -exec grep -l "CFBundleURLSchemes" {} \;
    
  3. Associated Domains Entitlement

    find . -name "*.entitlements" -exec grep -l "associated-domains" {} \;
    

Configuration Questions

1. URL Scheme

  • What custom URL scheme? (e.g., myapp)
  • This enables myapp://path/to/content links

2. Universal Links

  • Yes - Handle HTTPS links (requires AASA file on server)
  • No - Custom URL scheme only

3. App Intents / Siri Shortcuts

  • Yes - Enable voice commands and Shortcuts app
  • No - URL-based deep linking only

4. Link Types

  • Profile: /users/{id}
  • Content: /items/{id}
  • Actions: /actions/share, /actions/create
  • Custom routes based on app needs

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.
