Bootstrap iOS (Apple-platform entry point)
A router skill that inspects your Apple-platform project and loads only the references, skill packs, and build tooling needed for the task at hand.

What it does
- Detects the project surface first: iOS, iPadOS, macOS, SwiftPM, Xcode project/workspace, Tuist, XcodeGen, or CocoaPods.
- Loads focused reference packs on demand (SwiftUI, Swift Concurrency, Swift Testing, SwiftData, Core Data, App Intents) instead of dumping every Swift rule into context.
- Prefers XcodeBuildMCP or an agent-friendly build script over raw
xcodebuildlog walls. - Enforces verification before claiming done: name the scheme, run the smallest meaningful build/test, and report blockers (signing, missing simulator/Xcode) with the exact fix command.
- Installs external skills only after explaining the plan and running the helper script in
--dry-runmode, then verifies nothing installed shallow.
Who it's for
- Swift/SwiftUI developers shipping iOS, iPadOS, or macOS apps with Claude Code.
- Anyone tired of agents claiming a fix without proving the project still builds.
- Developers who want a single command to set up and validate a whole iOS skill stack.
Examples
- "Bootstrap my iOS skills" → the agent explains the install, runs a dry run, then installs and verifies every referenced file exists.
- "Fix this SwiftUI navigation bug" → loads only SwiftUI guidance, reproduces in Simulator, and captures evidence.
- "Clean up Swift 6 concurrency warnings" → pulls the concurrency pack, fixes actor/Sendable issues, and runs a minimal test pass.

Try it now, no install
Paste this into Claude to use the skill without installing anything.
Read the instructions in this file and follow them to help me: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RayFernando1337/rayfernando-skills/HEAD/plugins/bootstrap-ios/skills/bootstrap-ios/SKILL.md What I want: (describe your task here)
If Claude can't open the link, open it yourself and paste the contents instead.
↓ If it works for you, download the ZIP below and install it. Then it runs on its own — no pasting each time.
Install in the Claude app (no terminal)
- Download the ZIP with the button below.
- In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
- Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.
Install in Claude Code
Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code
Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart. Copy the plugins/bootstrap-ios/skills/bootstrap-ios folder from the GitHub repo RayFernando1337/rayfernando-skills into my ~/.claude/skills/bootstrap-ios/. When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.
Install with a command instead
git clone https://github.com/RayFernando1337/rayfernando-skills.git /tmp/rayfernando-skills && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r /tmp/rayfernando-skills/plugins/bootstrap-ios/skills/bootstrap-ios ~/.claude/skills/⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.
- Open Terminal on macOS.
- Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/RayFernando1337/rayfernando-skills.git - Create the skills folder:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills - Copy the skill:
cp -r rayfernando-skills/plugins/bootstrap-ios/skills/bootstrap-ios ~/.claude/skills/ - Confirm
~/.claude/skills/bootstrap-ioscontainsSKILL.mdplus thereferences/andscripts/folders. - Make sure Xcode and its command line tools are installed (
xcodebuild -version). - Restart Claude Code and try "bootstrap iOS" or "build this iOS project" to trigger the skill.
