The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
The ios-* family is 15 reference skills. Loading all of them drowns the context; loading none means designing from memory — which misses the concrete specs (point values, contrast floors, current SwiftUI APIs) the skills exist to carry. This dispatcher routes a task to the 2–4 skills that carry its specs.
Resolve the target first: the screen/component/flow named in the argument, else the iOS work active in the conversation. State it in one line, then load the routed skills via the Skill tool and apply them while working — this is a router, not a checklist to recite.

ios26-hig-patterns rides along on anything visual and new — it carries the platform baseline (floating tab bar, detents, 44pt targets, safe areas) the other skills assume.hallmark, components-and-states CSS patterns) for native iOS screens; cross-platform principles come from the /design family only as a supplement, never a replacement.test cases passed, vs 2 / 18 without
