The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

3 rules. About 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 3 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈0

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 3

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    Search this skill's local .md files first.

    line 96
  2. Very specific:

    If the topic is not here, check the other installed Apple skills you have available by their names, descriptions, or SKILL.md frontmatter, …

    line 97
  3. Very specific:

    If no installed skill has the page, use the relevant documentation path from the local XCTest or XCUIAutomation indexes with the sosumi.ai …

    line 98

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

XCUITest Reference

Comprehensive reference for writing reliable XCUITest UI tests in Swift 6.

Quick Reference

// Basic test structure
@MainActor
final class MyUITests: XCTestCase {
    var app: XCUIApplication!

    override func setUp() {
        super.setUp()
        continueAfterFailure = false
        app = XCUIApplication()
        app.launch()
    }

    func testExample() {
        let button = app.buttons["Submit"]
        XCTAssertTrue(button.waitForExistence(timeout: 5))
        button.tap()
    }
}

Fetching More Apple Docs

  1. Search this skill's local .md files first.
  2. If the topic is not here, check the other installed Apple skills you have available by their names, descriptions, or SKILL.md frontmatter, then grep their local files. This is faster and uses less context than fetching new docs from the internet.
  3. If no installed skill has the page, use the relevant documentation path from the local XCTest or XCUIAutomation indexes with the sosumi.ai Markdown mirror. For example, /documentation/xcuiautomation/xcuielement maps to https://sosumi.ai/documentation/xcuiautomation/xcuielement.

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
