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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00039 | $0.02047 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00019 | $0.01024 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00409 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00205 |
Grade A, and why
tipkit-generator 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 5d 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 — 266 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
TipKit Generator
Generate a complete TipKit setup for contextual tips and feature discovery, including tip definitions, rules, display frequency, inline and popover presentation, and testing utilities.
When This Skill Activates
Use this skill when the user:
- Asks to "add tips" or "add TipKit"
- Mentions "contextual tips" or "feature discovery"
- Wants "popover tips" or "inline tips"
- Asks about "coach marks" or "user education"
- Mentions "onboarding hints" or "tip prompts"
- Wants to "highlight new features" or "guide users"
Pre-Generation Checks
1. Project Context Detection
- Check deployment target (TipKit requires iOS 17+ / macOS 14+)
- Identify if SwiftUI or UIKit project
- Find App entry point location for Tips.configure()
- Check for existing TipKit implementations
2. Conflict Detection
Search for existing TipKit usage:
Glob: **/*Tip*.swift
Grep: "import TipKit" or "Tips.configure"
If found, ask user:
- Extend existing tip infrastructure?
- Replace existing tips?
Configuration Questions
Ask user via AskUserQuestion:
-
What features need tips?
- List the features or UI elements that should have tips
- Example: "search bar, filter button, swipe-to-delete gesture"
-
Tip presentation style? (per tip or general preference)
- Inline (TipView embedded in layout)
- Popover (attached to a control)
- Both
-
Rule types needed?
- Parameter-based (show after user meets condition, e.g., has viewed a screen 3 times)
- Event-based (show after user performs an action N times)
- Both
-
Display frequency?
- Immediate (tips show as soon as eligible)
- Hourly
- Daily
- Weekly
- Monthly
-
Tip ordering?
- Independent (tips show whenever eligible)
- Ordered (use TipGroup to show tips in sequence)
Generation Process
Step 1: Read Templates
Read the templates file for code patterns:
Read("skills/generators/tipkit-generator/templates.md")
Step 2: Create Core Files
What ships with it
1 file 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.
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.

tipkit-generator is a skill published in the GitHub repository rshankras/claude-code-apple-skills (710 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 39 tokens to every session and 2,047 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-09-03.
