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.

≈ “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.
Files
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:
- Check for core SwiftData issues using
references/core-rules.md. - Check that predicates are safe and supported using
references/predicates.md. - If the project uses CloudKit, check for CloudKit-specific constraints using
references/cloudkit.md. - If the project targets iOS 18+, check for indexing opportunities using
references/indexing.md. - 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:
- State the file and relevant line(s).
- Name the rule being violated.
- 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
- Data loss (high): Missing delete rule on line 8 of Destination.swift means sights will be orphaned when a destination is deleted.
- Crash (high):
isEmpty == falseon line 22 will crash at runtime – use!isEmptyinstead. - Incorrect behavior (high):
@Queryon 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.

Files found in the same public projects as a version of this one, more often than they turn up anywhere else. Each project counts once, large collections count for less, and this file's own repository is left out.

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
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.
