How to use

This catalogue entry advertises the skill in OpenDesign so the agent discovers it during planning. To run the full upstream workflow with its original assets, scripts, and references, install the upstream bundle into your active agent's skills directory:

# Inspect the upstream README for exact paths
open https://github.com/raintree-technology/apple-hig-skills

Then ask the agent to invoke this skill by name (apple-hig) or with one of the trigger phrases listed in this skill's frontmatter.

Get it through your agent

Call the Graph-of-Skills MCP server's retrieve_skill_bundle tool and it returns this skill's text inside your budget.

{
  "tool": "retrieve_skill_bundle",
  "arguments": {
    "query": "apple-hig"
  }
}

New to this? Set up Graph-of-Skills or get a free key. The text on this page comes from its authors: how skills are sourced and what we check. If none fits your task, your agent can write a skill for your own library. To keep a skill from your own library on a machine, see how to install one of your skills.
