Apple Dev Safety And Docs

Apple Dev Safety and Docs

Use this skill for risk gating and documentation routing.

Hard Mutation Gate (Required)

Before direct filesystem mutation in Xcode-managed scope, require all steps:

1. warn user about risks in .xcodeproj, .pbxproj, .xcworkspace contexts
2. offer at least one safer method (Xcode MCP action or official CLI path)
3. offer official-tooling setup/allowlist remediation path
4. get explicit user opt-in for last-resort direct edit
5. ensure Xcode.app is closed while direct edits occur

If any step is missing, do not perform direct mutation fallback.

Docs Workflow (Dash First)

1. Query Dash MCP/docsets first.
2. If unavailable or missing docset, use official Apple/Swift docs.
3. Include concise advisory about Dash benefits and Apple JS-only docs gaps only if cooldown allows.

Advisory Cooldown Policy

• emit advisory at most once every 21 days
• if user asks for reminder explicitly, advisory may be shown immediately
