Choose the right intent
Map your app’s capabilities to supported Siri/App Schemas or custom intents. Keep existing Shortcuts useful as your app evolves.
FREE TO USE. YOURS TO BUILD WITH.
Give your coding agent a practical guide to App Intents, Siri, and Shortcuts. Turn supported app actions into useful system integrations.

Apple’s APIs are only part of the work. This skill helps your agent choose the right contract, connect it to real app data, and check what actually works.
Map your app’s capabilities to supported Siri/App Schemas or custom intents. Keep existing Shortcuts useful as your app evolves.
Build persistent entities, useful queries, and composable results. Handle indexing, authentication, navigation, and background execution.
Separate service tests, metadata extraction, system execution, and device checks. Know which results you have and what still needs testing.
A SMALL APP YOU CAN LEARN FROM
The bundled SwiftUI example puts the guidance into code: persistent notes, entity queries, search indexing, and App Shortcuts. Follow the implementation, then adapt it to your own app.

A FOLDER. THAT’S THE INSTALL.
No subscription or API key is required by the skill. Your agent and Apple’s development tools have their own requirements.
The ZIP contains the complete apple-app-intents folder, with its references, Swift example, helper, and license.
Choose your agent’s personal skills directory below. Keep the bundled files together, and save any customized copy before replacing it.
~/.agents/skills/apple-app-intents~/.claude/skills/apple-app-intents~/.openclaw/skills/apple-app-intentsReload its skills or restart, then ask it to use apple-app-intents. Try this:
“Use apple-app-intents to audit my app’s Siri integration. Map supported actions to schemas or custom intents, preserve existing shortcuts, and tell me which build and device checks are still needed.”
GROUNDED IN APPLE’S DOCUMENTATION + WWDC26
Not every custom intent is discoverable through Siri AI. Availability depends on the schema, SDK, device, enabled services, and language or region.
The sample passed four Swift service tests and Xcode 27 beta 6 build and metadata checks. Live Siri and system-test execution remain unverified.
