SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the setup and improvement of GitHub Actions CI workflows for Apple-platform repositories, ensuring they align with the repository's local workflows and build/test practices.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • CI Bootstrap: Proposes an initial CI workflow that aligns with local Apple build and test practices.
  • CI Refresh: Updates existing CI workflows to align with repository truth.
  • CI Audit: Inspects CI workflows for drift and recommends changes without writing.
  • Use Case: For a SwiftPM-first repository, the Skill can automatically propose a CI workflow that leverages Swift's build and test commands, ensuring seamless integration with the local development environment.

Quick Start

Run the apple-ci-bootstrap skill with the 'bootstrap' mode in your repository to start a new CI setup.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up GitHub Actions CI for an Apple-platform repository?

GitHub Actions CI for Apple-platform repositories is bootstrapped by proposing an initial Xcode-first or SwiftPM-first workflow that aligns with local build and test practices. It requires GitHub-hosted macOS runners for Xcode-based repos.

Can I update existing GitHub Actions workflows to match local Swift build practices?

Existing GitHub Actions workflows can be refreshed to align with repository truth. The CI refresh mode updates current workflows to match local Swift build and test commands, while a CI audit mode inspects for drift without writing changes.

Does GitHub Actions CI for Xcode require GitHub-hosted macOS runners?

GitHub-hosted macOS runners are required for Xcode-based repos to run CI workflows. This ensures the Apple-platform build environment has the necessary Xcode toolchain available for fast and deep verification jobs.

What is the best way to automate CI maintenance for a SwiftPM-first repository?

Automating CI maintenance for a SwiftPM-first repository involves proposing workflows that leverage Swift build and test commands. This ensures seamless integration with the local development environment and keeps CI aligned with repository truth.

How do I audit Apple CI workflows for configuration drift?

Auditing Apple CI workflows for drift involves inspecting current GitHub Actions configurations against local practices. The CI audit mode recommends changes to align workflows with repository truth without directly writing modifications.

When should I use fast versus deep verification jobs in Apple CI workflows?

Fast and deep verification jobs in Apple CI workflows provide options for different testing depths. Fast jobs offer quick feedback while deep verification jobs ensure comprehensive testing for Xcode-first and mixed-repo workflows.
