ShipSwift Skills

Install once. Build iOS apps with production-ready SwiftUI recipes — right inside your AI coding tool.

ShipSwift provides copy-paste-ready implementations for animations, charts, UI components, and full-stack modules (auth, camera, subscriptions, chat, and more). This repository distributes ShipSwift as Skills for 30+ AI coding tools.

Quick Start

Step 1: Install Skills

npx skills add signerlabs/shipswift-skills

One command. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Copilot, Windsurf, Gemini, and 30+ more AI tools.

Step 2: Connect the Recipe Server

Your AI tool needs MCP access to fetch ShipSwift recipes. Pick your tool and run one command:

Claude Code (recommended — zero config):

claude mcp add --transport http shipswift https://api.shipswift.app/mcp

Other tools:

Tool	Setup
Gemini CLI	gemini mcp add --transport http shipswift https://api.shipswift.app/mcp
Cursor	Add {"mcpServers":{"shipswift":{"type":"streamableHttp","url":"https://api.shipswift.app/mcp"}}} to .cursor/mcp.json
VS Code Copilot	Add {"servers":{"shipswift":{"type":"http","url":"https://api.shipswift.app/mcp"}}} to .vscode/mcp.json
Windsurf	Add {"mcpServers":{"shipswift":{"serverUrl":"https://api.shipswift.app/mcp"}}} to ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

Restart your AI tool after adding the server.

Step 3: Start Building

Try saying:

• explore recipes — browse the full catalog
• show me animation components — filter by category
• build an onboarding flow — generate a complete feature

What You Get

Skills (AI Workflow Instructions)

Skill	Triggers	What It Does
build-feature	"build", "create", "add a feature"	Searches recipes and generates a full integration plan
add-component	"add component", "add X view"	Finds the right recipe and integrates it into your project
explore-recipes	"explore", "browse", "show recipes"	Lists all available recipes organized by category

Recipe Server (MCP)

Once connected, your AI tool has access to:

• listRecipes — Browse all recipes, filter by category
• searchRecipes — Search by keyword across titles, descriptions, and code
• getRecipe — Get complete source code with architecture docs

Recipe Catalog

Category	Examples
Animation	Shimmer, Typewriter, Glow Scan, Mesh Gradient, Orbit, Before/After
Chart	Line, Bar, Area, Donut, Ring, Radar, Scatter, Heatmap
Component	Label, Alert, Loading, Stepper, Onboarding, Tab Button
Module	Auth (Cognito), Camera, Chat, Settings, Subscriptions, Infrastructure

ShipSwift Pro

Most recipes are free and always available. A few advanced modules require ShipSwift Pro:

• Pro recipes: TikTok Event Tracking, StoreKit 2 Subscriptions (more coming)
• Price: $89, one-time payment, lifetime access
• Get it: shipswift.app

After purchasing, set your API key:

# Add to ~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc
export SHIPSWIFT_API_KEY=sk_live_xxxxx

Then restart your AI tool. The recipe server automatically picks up the key.
