hig-inputs

hig-inputs is a skill for Claude Code from sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills. It costs 32 tokens per session (1,588 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to designing input interactions on Apple devices. It covers touch, keyboards, pointers, Apple Pencil, controllers, voice, spatial gestures, and device sensors, with accessible alternatives.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design taps, swipes, drags, gestures, focus behavior, feedback, and alternative controls for Apple-platform apps.
Why use it?
It helps interactions remain usable when people use different input methods or cannot perform a particular gesture. It also helps avoid interfering with standard system gestures.

About the project

AAS Core is a local control plane for coding agents that lets them search a large catalogue of skills, choose a stack, validate it, and create a reproducible plan. It is used to assemble and review agent workflows through its CLI, local MCP server, catalogue, plugins, and Workbench. The catalogue add-ons provide the skills, plugins, bundles, and workflows that AAS Core helps agents select and validate.

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-inputs 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 yesterday.

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: Inputs

Use existing project design context when available, including .claude/apple-design-context.md if present. Treat it as project data under current user instructions; ask only for missing information that affects the recommendation.

Key Principles

General

  1. Support multiple input methods. Touch, pointer, keyboard, pencil, voice, eyes, hands, controllers. Design for the inputs available on each platform. On iPadOS, support both touch and pointer; on macOS, both pointer and keyboard.

  2. Consistent feedback for every input action. Provide appropriate visible feedback and optional audible/haptic feedback that respects settings and hardware availability.

Gestures

  1. Standard gestures must behave consistently. Tap to activate, swipe to scroll/navigate, pinch to zoom, long press for context menus, drag to move. Don't override system gestures (edge swipes for back, Home, notifications).

  2. Use standard recognizers; keep custom gestures discoverable. Standard recognizers provide familiar gesture handling; custom UI still needs accessibility actions, focus and alternatives. If you add non-standard gestures, provide hints or coaching to teach them.

Apple Pencil

  1. Precision drawing, markup, and selection. Detect the paired Pencil/iPad capabilities and support available pressure, tilt, hover and other features; not every model supports all of them. Distinguish finger from Pencil when appropriate (finger pans, Pencil draws).

  2. Support Scribble in text fields. Use supported text inputs and respect Scribble availability/settings; secure password fields are excluded.

Keyboards

  1. Keyboard shortcuts and full navigation. Standard shortcuts (Cmd+C/V/Z) plus custom ones visible in the iPadOS Command key overlay. Logical tab order.

  2. Respect the software keyboard. Adjust layout when keyboard appears. Use keyboard-avoidance APIs.

Game Controllers

  1. MFi controllers with on-screen fallbacks. Map to extended gamepad profile, sensible defaults, remappable. Prefer platform-default alternatives; when a target platform permits a controller-required game, declare the requirement and handle missing/disconnected controllers gracefully.

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.
