Let <swiftui-plugin-root> be the absolute plugin directory two levels above this SKILL.md. Resolve that path before running commands or opening shared references. When these instructions say swiftui-ctx, invoke <swiftui-plugin-root>/scripts/swiftui-ctx; do not assume the command is on PATH.
For building a whole feature, not one call. Each recipe is a canonical template plus real examples from shipping
macOS apps, served by swiftui-ctx. (One API → swiftui-examples. Deprecated cleanup → swiftui-modernize.)
swiftui-ctx = <swiftui-plugin-root>/scripts/swiftui-ctx (or swiftui-ctx on PATH). It self-builds + self-locates the catalog.
Don't reconstruct a macOS pattern from memory (menu-bar lifecycle, Settings scene, NSViewRepresentable wiring are exactly where memory fails). Pull the recipe, then open a real example. Announce: "Using macos-app-patterns."
swiftui-ctx recipes — list the patterns (or go straight to the one you need).swiftui-ctx recipe <name> — the template skeleton + the APIs + real examples.swiftui-ctx file <example.id> --smart (or the printed file <permalink>) — read the real, compilable code.swiftui-ctx lookup <api> if unsure.| Recipe | Use for |
|---|---|
menubar-app | a status-bar/menu-bar app with a Settings window (MenuBarExtra + Settings) |
settings-screen / settings-form | a preferences window (TabView of panes) / a grouped Form of controls |
master-detail | sidebar + detail (NavigationSplitView) — the macOS standard |
window-scene | custom window config (hidden title bar, fixed size, level) |
observable-model | modern state: @Observable model owned by a view |
nsview-bridge | wrap an AppKit NSView/NSViewController (the hardest thing to get right) |
charts-bar | a Swift Charts bar chart with axes |
searchable-list | a list with a search field (+ scopes) |
command-palette | a ⌘K quick-open/command overlay |
draggable-reorder | reorderable rows (onMove / draggable+dropDestination(for:isEnabled:action:)) |
cached-async-image | remote image with placeholder (+ caching note) |
Full index with the APIs each pulls in → references/recipes.md.
3 not-found (bad recipe name) → swiftui-ctx recipes to list them. 5 no catalog → STOP, tell the user, don't fabricate.
| File | Read when |

references/recipes.md | You want the recipe index with the APIs each one composes. |
