photokit

photokit is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from TalissonVitorino/kmp-ios-skills. It costs 217 tokens per session (4,250 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to choosing and organizing the structure of an Apple-platform app, including MVVM and other ways to separate screens, state, and behavior. MVVM is a common pattern that separates the user interface from the data and actions behind it.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when starting an app, choosing an architecture for a feature, or gradually moving an older app to a clearer structure.
Why use it?
It helps keep growing SwiftUI code understandable, testable, and easier to change.

    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

photokit 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 9d 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 — 292 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

PhotoKit & AVFoundation Capture (iOS)

Photo-library picking, library access, and custom camera capture for a fintech iOS app (document/ID capture, receipt attachments, avatars). Grounded in Apple's PhotosUI, Photos (PhotoKit), and AVFoundation frameworks; targets the iOS 26 era.

  • Decision: need a plain image/video pick with no library permission? Use PhotosPicker (SwiftUI) or PHPickerViewController (UIKit) — both run out of process and hand back only chosen items. Need to enumerate/organize the library, observe changes, or fetch by metadata? That requires PHPhotoLibrary authorization and PhotoKit. Need live camera (KYC selfie, ID/cheque scan)? Use AVFoundation.
  • Cross-refs: OCR / barcode / MRZ / document rectangle detection on a captured frame → vision-framework; on-device image models → coreml; permission strings & privacy manifest for submission → app-store-review; if a KMP commonMain screen needs the picker, expose an expect capture interface bound to an iosMain actualexpect-actual.

Contents

Privacy strings (required)

Missing a required key = hard crash the moment the API is touched. Add to Info.plist:

Key When needed
NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription Read/write library access (.readWrite), PHAsset fetches, PHImageManager.
NSPhotoLibraryAddUsageDescription Add-only access (.addOnly) — saving without ever reading. Prefer this when you only save.
NSCameraUsageDescription Any AVCaptureSession with a camera input; also PHPickerViewController/PhotosPicker do not need it.
NSMicrophoneUsageDescription Video capture with audio (adding an audio AVCaptureDeviceInput).

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.
