SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates the need for cloud-based AI services in iOS 26+ apps, keeping all user data on the device for full privacy and offline functionality.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • On-Device Text Generation: Generate and summarize text directly on iOS devices with no internet connection, powered by Apple's FoundationModels framework.
  • Structured Output with @Generable: Extract typed, structured data from natural language input for use in forms, app logic, and data processing workflows.
  • Custom Tool Calling: Implement domain-specific AI actions like recipe search or calendar lookup by letting the on-device model invoke your custom Swift code.
  • Real-Time Snapshot Streaming: Progressively display generated structured content in SwiftUI for smooth, responsive user interfaces.
  • Use Case Example: Build a fully offline cooking assistant that suggests recipes based on user-provided ingredients and returns structured recipe data without sending any input to external servers.

Quick Start

Use the foundation-models-on-device skill to add a private on-device text summarization feature to your iOS 26 app that works without an internet connection.

Frequently Asked Questions about foundation-models-on-device

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate text on-device in iOS 26 without an internet connection?▼

On-device text generation in iOS 26 uses the FoundationModels framework to generate and summarize text directly on the device, ensuring full privacy and offline functionality without requiring a cloud service.

How do I extract structured data from natural language in Swift?▼

Structured data extraction from natural language is done using the @Generable macro in Swift, providing compile-time type safety for structured outputs that can be used directly in app logic and forms.

Can I implement custom tool calling with Apple Intelligence on iOS?▼

Custom tool calling with Apple Intelligence allows the on-device model to invoke your domain-specific Swift code, enabling actions like recipe search or calendar lookup without sending data to external servers.

How does snapshot streaming work for SwiftUI interfaces?▼

Snapshot streaming progressively displays generated structured content in SwiftUI, providing real-time UI updates for a smooth and responsive user interface experience during model generation.

Do I need a cloud-based AI service to build a private iOS assistant?▼

You do not need a cloud-based AI service to build a private iOS assistant, because the FoundationModels framework processes structured generation and tool calling entirely offline on the device.

What are the limitations of using FoundationModels for offline AI?▼

FoundationModels offline AI is limited to iOS 26+ applications and adheres to Apple Intelligence platform constraints, requiring devices that support the framework to run on-device text generation and tool calling.
