What problem does it solve?

This skill centralizes Apple and Swift documentation discovery so agents and maintainers can reliably find authoritative API references, guides, and symbol pages without guessing which local or web source to use. It reduces time spent switching between Xcode MCP, Dash, and web docs by applying a documented selection and fallback order and by providing clear next steps when local coverage is missing.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Multi-source discovery: Prefer Xcode MCP, then Dash MCP, then Dash localhost HTTP, then official Apple/Swift web docs, with optional user preference override.
• Dash follow-up modes: Support dash-install and dash-generate flows with catalog matching, approval gating, and machine-readable install guidance.
• Maintainer helpers and probes: Includes scripts to probe Dash, refresh or match Dash catalogs, and run guarded install or generate helpers useful for dry runs and automation.
• Use case: Quickly locate a Swift symbol's authoritative documentation, suggest a docset install if missing, and hand off to generation guidance when no installable docset exists.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to explore the query "URLSession data task" with mode explore and preferred_source auto to receive source_used, matches, and a recommended next step.
