Agent request
Review the Skillstore skill "hig-inputs" from https://skillstore.io/skills/sickn33-hig-inputs.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/sickn33-hig-inputs/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.

Test it

Using "hig-inputs". Review zoom controls for an iPad drawing application that supports touch, trackpad, and Apple Pencil.

Expected outcome:

  • Use pinch to zoom with touch and trackpad.
  • Keep Pencil input dedicated to drawing unless the user selects another tool.
  • Provide visible zoom controls and keyboard shortcuts as alternatives.
  • Preserve the zoom focal point and show immediate visual feedback.

Using "hig-inputs". Recommend navigation inputs for a media application on tvOS and visionOS.

Expected outcome:

  • Use predictable focus movement and a clear focus indicator on both platforms.
  • Support the Siri Remote clickpad and Back button conventions on tvOS.
  • Use look and pinch with generous targets on visionOS.
  • Avoid sustained gaze activation and provide an alternate way to complete every task.

What You Can Build

Plan Cross-Platform Inputs

Map touch, keyboard, pointer, Pencil, and controller support across an Apple application.

Review Interaction Specifications

Check gestures, focus behavior, shortcuts, and feedback before implementation.

Audit Accessible Alternatives

Identify tasks that require alternate controls for different devices, abilities, or interaction modes.

Try These Prompts

Review One Interaction
Review this interaction for [platform]: [interaction]. Recommend the expected input behavior, feedback, and one accessible alternative.
Compare Platform Inputs
Compare input requirements for [feature] on [platforms]. Cover primary inputs, keyboard or pointer support, feedback, and platform-specific constraints.
Create an Input Specification
Create an input specification for [product flow]. Include platform recommendations, a gesture table, keyboard shortcuts, focus behavior, and accessibility alternatives.
Audit a Complex Input System
Audit this input design: [design details]. Find convention conflicts, inaccessible dependencies, destructive actions, discoverability gaps, and device-specific failures. Prioritize fixes by user impact.

Best Practices

  • State the target platforms, supported devices, and primary user tasks.
  • Describe custom gestures and destructive actions so the review can assess discoverability and recovery.
  • Validate recommendations on physical devices with keyboard, pointer, and assistive technologies.

Avoid

  • Do not request one universal interaction model without identifying platform differences.
  • Do not make custom gestures the only way to complete an essential task.
  • Do not treat guidance as proof that an interaction works on every device or accessibility configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Apple platforms does this skill cover?
It covers iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS, and visionOS input considerations.
Can it generate application code?
No. It produces design recommendations and specifications, but it does not implement or test code.
Does it support accessibility reviews?
Yes. It can identify missing alternatives and recommend support for keyboard, focus, VoiceOver, Switch Control, and other inputs.
Can it review custom gestures?
Yes. Provide each gesture, its purpose, target platforms, feedback, and fallback controls.
Does it replace current Apple documentation?
No. Verify release-sensitive details against current Apple documentation and platform testing.
What context produces the best results?
Provide platforms, devices, user tasks, existing interactions, accessibility needs, and any destructive or time-sensitive actions.
