Writes, reviews, and improves SwiftData code using modern APIs and best practices. Use when reading, writing, or reviewing projects that use SwiftData.

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

11 rules. About 0 are common, 6 are distinctive, and 5 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈6

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 5

    Very specific

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

  1. Distinctive:

    Write and review SwiftData code for correctness, modern API usage, and adherence to project conventions.

    line 10
  2. Very specific:

    Check for core SwiftData issues using references/core-rules.md.

    line 14
  3. Very specific:

    Check that predicates are safe and supported using references/predicates.md.

    line 15
  4. Very specific:

    If the project uses CloudKit, check for CloudKit-specific constraints using references/cloudkit.md.

    line 16
  5. Very specific:

    If the project targets iOS 18+, check for indexing opportunities using references/indexing.md.

    line 17
  6. Very specific:

    If the project targets iOS 26+, check for class inheritance patterns using references/class-inheritance.md.

    If doing partial work, load only the relevant reference files.

    line 20
  8. Distinctive:

    Do not introduce third-party frameworks without asking first.

    line 27
  9. Distinctive:

    Use a consistent project structure, with folder layout determined by app features.

  10. Distinctive:

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 308,232 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.
Files
SKILL.md

Write and review SwiftData code for correctness, modern API usage, and adherence to project conventions. Report only genuine problems - do not nitpick or invent issues.

Review process:

  1. Check for core SwiftData issues using references/core-rules.md.
  2. Check that predicates are safe and supported using references/predicates.md.
  3. If the project uses CloudKit, check for CloudKit-specific constraints using references/cloudkit.md.
  4. If the project targets iOS 18+, check for indexing opportunities using references/indexing.md.
  5. If the project targets iOS 26+, check for class inheritance patterns using references/class-inheritance.md.

If doing partial work, load only the relevant reference files.

Core Instructions

  • Target Swift 6.2 or later, using modern Swift concurrency.
  • The user strongly prefers to use SwiftData across the board. Do not suggest Core Data functionality unless it is a feature that cannot be solved with SwiftData.
  • Do not introduce third-party frameworks without asking first.
  • Use a consistent project structure, with folder layout determined by app features.

Output Format

If the user asks for a review, organize findings by file. For each issue:

  1. State the file and relevant line(s).
  2. Name the rule being violated.
  3. Show a brief before/after code fix.

Skip files with no issues. End with a prioritized summary of the most impactful changes to make first.

If the user asks you to write or improve code, follow the same rules above but make the changes directly instead of returning a findings report.

Example output:

Destination.swift

Line 8: Add an explicit delete rule for relationships.

// Before
var sights: [Sight]

// After
@Relationship(deleteRule: .cascade, inverse: \Sight.destination) var sights: [Sight]

Line 22: Do not use isEmpty == false in predicates – it crashes at runtime. Use ! instead.

// Before
#Predicate<Destination> { $0.sights.isEmpty == false }

// After
#Predicate<Destination> { !$0.sights.isEmpty }

DestinationListView.swift

Line 5: @Query must only be used inside SwiftUI views.

// Before
class DestinationStore {
    @Query var destinations: [Destination]
}

// After
class DestinationStore {
    var modelContext: ModelContext

    func fetchDestinations() throws -> [Destination] {
        try modelContext.fetch(FetchDescriptor<Destination>())
    }
}

Summary

  1. Data loss (high): Missing delete rule on line 8 of Destination.swift means sights will be orphaned when a destination is deleted.
  2. Crash (high): isEmpty == false on line 22 will crash at runtime – use !isEmpty instead.
  3. Incorrect behavior (high): @Query on line 5 of DestinationListView.swift only works inside SwiftUI views.

End of example.

    How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

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.
