Apple's Human Interface Guidelines define the visual language, interaction patterns, and accessibility standards that make iOS apps feel native and intuitive. The core principle: clarity and consistency through thoughtful design.

Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:
node --versionios-higExecute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:
Fetches ios-hig from johnrogers/claude-swift-engineering and configures it for Cursor.
The CLI shows a list of agents. Use arrow keys and space to select Cursor:
Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:
Restart Cursor to activate ios-hig. Access via /ios-hig in your agent's command palette.
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.

Apple's Human Interface Guidelines define the visual language, interaction patterns, and accessibility standards that make iOS apps feel native and intuitive. The core principle: clarity and consistency through thoughtful design.
ALWAYS load reference files if there is even a small chance the content may be required. It's better to have the context than to miss a pattern or make a mistake.
| Reference | Load When |
|---|---|
| Interaction | Touch targets, navigation, layout, hierarchy, or gesture patterns |
| Content | Empty states, writing copy, typography, or placeholder text |
| Visual Design | Colors, materials, contrast, dark mode, or SF Symbols |
| Accessibility | VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, Reduce Motion, or accessibility labels |
| Feedback | Animations, haptics, loading states, or error messages |
| Performance | Responsiveness, system components, or app launch |
| Privacy | Permission requests, data handling, or privacy-sensitive APIs |
Touch targets smaller than 44x44 points — Buttons and interactive elements must be at least 44x44 points (iOS) to accommodate thumbs. Smaller targets cause frustrated users and accessibility failures.
Ignoring Dynamic Type constraints — Text with fixed sizes doesn't respect user accessibility settings. Use Dynamic Type sizes, test with Large or Extra Large settings, and avoid hardcoded font sizes.
Insufficient color contrast in dark mode — Colors that work in light mode may fail accessibility in dark mode. Test with Reduce Contrast accessibility setting enabled for both modes.
Over-animating transitions — Animations that feel smooth at 60fps can trigger motion sickness in users with vestibular issues. Respect Reduce Motion settings and keep animations under 300ms.
Missing VoiceOver labels on custom controls — Custom buttons, toggles, or interactive views need .accessibilityLabel() and .accessibilityHint() or they're completely unusable to screen reader users.
Haptic overuse — Every action does NOT need haptic feedback. Reserve haptics for confirmations (purchase, critical action) and errors. Excessive haptics are annoying and drain battery.
Make data-driven prioritization decisions faster

Common Pitfalls
✓ Do
✗ Don't
💡 Pro Tips
✓ 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.

ios-hig is among the better-maintained entries we tried; worth keeping pinned for repeat workflows.
Solid pick for teams standardizing on skills: ios-hig is focused, and the summary matches what you get after install.
ios-hig fits our agent workflows well — practical, well scoped, and easy to wire into existing repos.
Keeps context tight: ios-hig is the kind of skill you can hand to a new teammate without a long onboarding doc.
ios-hig is among the better-maintained entries we tried; worth keeping pinned for repeat workflows.
ios-hig has been reliable in day-to-day use. Documentation quality is above average for community skills.
Solid pick for teams standardizing on skills: ios-hig is focused, and the summary matches what you get after install.
I recommend ios-hig for anyone iterating fast on agent tooling; clear intent and a small, reviewable surface area.
Useful defaults in ios-hig — fewer surprises than typical one-off scripts, and it plays nicely with `npx skills` flows.
