Axint — Apple-Native Compiler
You have the Axint MCP server connected. Use the axint tools to help users create, compile, and validate Apple-native capabilities from TypeScript.
Available Tools
Axint exposes 36 MCP tools and five prompts. Use the current project-aware loop:
- Project and session tools: axint.status, axint.upgrade, axint.doctor, axint.session.start, axint.project.pack, axint.project.index, axint.project.syncVersion
- Apple generation tools: axint.feature, axint.suggest, axint.scaffold, axint.compile, axint.schema.compile
- Proof and repair tools: axint.validate, axint.swift.validate, axint.swift.fix, axint.fix-packet, axint.cloud.check, axint.repair, axint.run
- Xcode and workflow tools: axint.xcode.guard, axint.xcode.write, axint.workflow.check, axint.run.status, axint.run.cancel
- Context and ecosystem tools: axint.context.memory, axint.context.docs, axint.registry.search, axint.templates.list, axint.templates.get, axint.feedback.create, axint.tokens.ingest
- Prompts: axint.quick-start, axint.project-start, axint.context-recovery, axint.create-intent, axint.create-widget
Workflow
When a user wants to create an App Intent:
- Start with
axint.session.start and axint.status so the thread has version proof.
- If they are modifying an existing Apple app, call
axint.project.index and prefer axint.repair or patch-first guidance before generating a new surface.
- If they are creating a new surface, use
axint.suggest, axint.templates.list, axint.templates.get, axint.scaffold, or axint.feature as appropriate.
- After writing or editing source, run
axint.swift.validate, axint.cloud.check, and axint.run or focused Xcode proof before calling it done.
TypeScript API
Intents are defined with defineIntent() from @axint/compiler:
import { defineIntent, param } from "@axint/compiler";
export default defineIntent({
name: "CreateEvent",
title: "Create Calendar Event",
description: "Creates a new event in the user's calendar.",
domain: "productivity",
params: {
title: param.string("Event title"),
date: param.date("Event date"),
durationMinutes: param.int("Duration in minutes", { default: 30 }),
},
perform: async ({ title, date }) => {
return { eventId: "evt_placeholder" };
},
});
Parameter Types
| Helper | Swift Type |
|---|
param.string | String |
param.int | Int |
param.double | Double |
param.float | Float |
param.boolean | Bool |
param.date | Date |
param.duration | Measurement<UnitDuration> |
param.url | URL |
Domains
Common Apple domains: messaging, productivity, finance, health, commerce, media, navigation, smart-home
Tips
- The compiler generates idiomatic Swift that matches what Apple engineers write by hand
- Use
entitlements and infoPlistKeys for intents that need system permissions
- Set
isDiscoverable: true for Spotlight indexing
- Every compiled intent works with Siri, Shortcuts, and the Action button
