Security Notice
We perform automated surface-level scans (Gen AI Scanner, Socket, Snyk) during installation. These checks detect common vulnerabilities but do not guarantee complete security. Always review skill source code and verify the publisher's reputation before production use.
Skills execute code in your environment. Always review source, verify the publisher, and test in isolation before production.
Read and write NFC tags on iPhone using the CoreNFC framework. Covers NDEF
reader sessions, tag reader sessions, NDEF message construction, entitlements,
and background tag reading. Targets Swift 6.3 / iOS 26+.
Add the Near Field Communication Tag Reading capability in Xcode
Add NFCReaderUsageDescription to Info.plist with a user-facing reason string
Add the com.apple.developer.nfc.readersession.formats entitlement with the tag types your app reads (e.g., NDEF, TAG)
For ISO 7816 tags, add supported application identifiers to com.apple.developer.nfc.readersession.iso7816.select-identifiers in Info.plist
Device Requirements
NFC reading requires iPhone 7 or later. Always check for reader session
availability before presenting NFC UI.

Key Types
Type
Role
NFCNDEFReaderSession
Scans for NDEF-formatted tags
NFCTagReaderSession
Scans for ISO7816, ISO15693, FeliCa, MIFARE tags
NFCNDEFMessage
Collection of NDEF payload records
NFCNDEFPayload
Single record within an NDEF message
NFCNDEFTag
Protocol for interacting with an NDEF-capable tag
NDEF Reader Session
Use NFCNDEFReaderSession to read NDEF-formatted data from tags. This is the
simplest path for reading standard tag content like URLs, text, and MIME data.
importCoreNFCfinalclassNDEFReader:NSObject,NFCNDEFReaderSessionDelegate{privatevar session:NFCNDEFReaderSession?funcbeginScanning(){guardNFCNDEFReaderSession.readingAvailable else{return} session =NFCNDEFReaderSession( delegate:self, queue:nil, invalidateAfterFirstRead:false) session?.alertMessage ="Hold your iPhone near an NFC tag." session?.begin()}// MARK: - NFCNDEFReaderSessionDelegatefuncreaderSessionDidBecomeActive(_ session:NFCNDEFReaderSession){// Session is scanning}funcreaderSession(_ session:NFCNDEFReaderSession, didDetectNDEFs messages:[NFCNDEFMessage]){for message in messages {for record in message.records {processRecord(record)}}}funcreaderSession(_ session:NFCNDEFReaderSession, didInvalidateWithError error:Error){let nfcError = error as?NFCReaderErrorif nfcError?.code !=.readerSessionInvalidationErrorFirstNDEFTagRead, nfcError?.code !=.readerSessionInvalidationErrorUserCanceled {print("Session invalidated: \(error.localizedDescription)")}self.session =nil}}
Reading with Tag Connection
For read-write operations, use the tag-detection delegate method to connect
to individual tags:
Use NFCTagReaderSession when you need direct access to the native tag
protocol (ISO 7816, ISO 15693, FeliCa, or MIFARE).
finalclassTagReader:NSObject,NFCTagReaderSessionDelegate{privatevar session:NFCTagReaderSession?funcbeginScanning(){ session =NFCTagReaderSession( pollingOption:[.iso14443,.iso15693], delegate:self, queue:nil) session?.alertMessage ="Hold your iPhone near a tag." session?.begin()}functagReaderSessionDidBecomeActive(_ session:NFCTagReaderSession){}functagReaderSession(_ session:NFCTagReaderSession, didDetect tags:[NFCTag]){guardlet tag

Make data-driven prioritization decisions faster
Stakeholder Communication
Draft PRDs, status updates, and stakeholder presentations
›Access to product documentation and roadmap tools (Jira, Notion, etc.)
›Understanding of product management frameworks (RICE, Jobs-to-be-Done, etc.)
›Stakeholder contact information and communication channels
Time Estimate
30-60 minutes to see productivity improvements
Steps
1Install product management skill
2Start with user story generation for known feature
3Progress to competitive analysis: research 2-3 competitors
4Use for roadmap prioritization: apply RICE/ICE scoring
5Draft stakeholder communications and refine based on feedback
6Build template library for recurring PM tasks
7Share effective prompts with product team
Common Pitfalls
⚠Not validating competitive research—verify facts before sharing
⚠Accepting user stories without involving engineering team
⚠Over-relying on frameworks without qualitative judgment
⚠Not customizing outputs to company culture and communication style
⚠Skipping stakeholder validation of generated requirements
Best Practices
✓ Do
+Validate research and competitive analysis with real data
+Collaborate with engineering when generating technical requirements
+Customize frameworks and templates to your company context
+Use skill for first drafts, refine with stakeholder input
+Document successful prompt patterns for PM tasks
+Combine AI efficiency with human judgment and intuition
✗ Don't
−Don't publish competitive analysis without fact-checking
−Don't finalize user stories without engineering review
−Don't make prioritization decisions solely on AI scoring
−Don't skip customer validation of generated requirements
−Don't ignore company-specific context and culture
💡 Pro Tips
★Provide context: company goals, constraints, customer feedback
★Ask for alternatives: 'Show 3 ways to prioritize this roadmap'
★Request stakeholder-specific formatting: 'Executive summary vs. engineering spec'
★Use skill for 70% generation + 30% customization to company needs
When to Use This
✓ Use when
Use for user story writing, competitive research, roadmap prioritization, stakeholder communication, and PRD drafting. Best for reducing repetitive documentation and research work.
✗ Avoid when
Avoid for strategic product vision (requires deep customer empathy), pricing decisions (needs market and financial expertise), or when face-to-face customer discovery is more valuable than speed.
