* Give the verify-and-review pipeline a native leg The build-verify-review loop assumed a browser end to end while the comp side of the system was already platform-aware: new-work.md, visualize.md, and the asset producer all comp a native app portrait at its device viewport, and then the verification steps asked for desktop and mobile browser screenshots of it. Concretely: - new-work.md step 7 ordered detect.mjs on every hookless build with no platform guard. routing.md declares the detector web-only and the design hook skips native projects, so a native build was always hookless and always ordered to run an HTML rule engine over Swift/Kotlin/RN code. The playbook now guards it: web-only, and on native the reviewer's floor check is the named slop gate. - The inspection round and the SKILL.src.md batched-round principle named desktop and mobile as the only viewports. Both now map per platform: web keeps desktop and mobile; native inspects the shipped device classes per OS, captured from the simulator or emulator. - ios.md and android.md carried no verification guidance at all, so nothing told a native run how to produce the screenshots the evidence chain depends on. Each gains a Verifying the build section: simctl / adb capture commands, dark-appearance and type-scale checks, and the simulator-vs-hardware honesty line. - The finish reviewer judged native builds blind: it never runs context.mjs and its packet carried no platform guidance. On native the packet now includes the platform reference path(s) and a no-detector-ran line, and the reviewer's Input Contract says to judge in the platform's conventions. Assisted-by: Claude Code * fix: address PR review bot findings - greptile: carry the capture's device selector through the state-changing verification commands (simctl appearance, adb uimode and font_scale); unqualified forms fail with several targets attached - Copilot: align new-work.md's cross-reference with the actual heading (Verifying the build) - Copilot: give the finish reviewer's Input Contract the native filename example new-work.md establishes (phone.png / tablet.png, suffixed per OS on adaptive) Assisted-by: Claude Code * fix: identify simulators by UDID, not display name greptile follow-up: display names can collide across booted simulators, so the capture and appearance commands now both key on the UDID from simctl list devices booted.

# iOS platform
|
||
|
||
For native iOS / iPadOS apps: SwiftUI, UIKit, React Native, Expo, Flutter shipping to Apple hardware.
|
||
|
||
On native, the visitor mode narrows what expression may override. HIG conformance governs structure, navigation, and interaction in every mode; brand expresses through the layer the platform leaves open (tint, type, motion, content).
|
||
|
||
## The iOS slop test
|
||
|
||
Would a fluent iPhone user trust this app, or pause at off-spec controls? The tell is "ported from a website": reinvented navigation bars, custom back gestures, web-shaped buttons, hover-dependent affordances. Default to the platform's components; depart only for a reason the user would thank you for.
|
||
|
||
## Layout & structure
|
||
|
||
- **Safe area.** Lay out inside the safe-area insets. No controls under the notch, Dynamic Island, home indicator, or rounded corners. <!-- rule:ios-layout-safe-area -->
|
||
- **System navigation.** Tab bar for 2–5 top-level sections (sections, never actions), navigation stack for hierarchy, sheet for self-contained tasks. No custom global nav, no mixed metaphors. <!-- rule:ios-layout-standard-navigation -->
|
||
- **Edge-swipe back stays alive.** The left-edge back gesture is muscle memory; never disable or overlay it. <!-- rule:ios-layout-edge-swipe-back -->
|
||
- **Large titles** on top-level screens, collapsing to inline on scroll. Deep detail screens stay inline. <!-- rule:ios-layout-large-titles -->
|
||
|
||
## Touch targets
|
||
|
||
- **44×44 pt minimum** for every tappable control, with breathing room between adjacent targets. <!-- rule:ios-touch-target-44pt -->
|
||
|
||
## Typography
|
||
|
||
- **Dynamic Type.** Use the system text styles (Large Title through Caption) so text follows the user's reading size. No hard-coded point sizes. <!-- rule:ios-typo-dynamic-type -->
|
||
- **San Francisco carries the UI.** Body, labels, and controls stay on SF Pro / SF Compact; a brand face may appear in display moments. <!-- rule:ios-typo-system-font -->
|
||
- **11 pt floor**; Body is 17 pt. <!-- rule:ios-typo-minimum-size -->
|
||
|
||
## Color & materials
|
||
|
||
- **Semantic system colors** (label, secondaryLabel, systemBackground, separator, tint). They adapt to Dark Mode and increased contrast automatically; raw hex breaks there. <!-- rule:ios-color-semantic-system -->
|
||
- **Dark Mode is a first-class appearance.** Design and test both. <!-- rule:ios-color-dark-mode -->
|
||
- **One tint color** drives interactive elements; decoration is not its job. <!-- rule:ios-color-single-tint -->
|
||
- **System materials** for blur and translucency behind bars and sheets; no hand-rolled glassmorphism. <!-- rule:ios-color-system-materials -->
|
||
|
||
## Components & controls
|
||
|
||
- **Platform controls.** Switch, segmented control, stepper, system pickers, action sheets, alerts, context menus, swipe actions. Reinventing these for flavor is the most common native slop. <!-- rule:ios-components-native-controls -->
|
||
- **SF Symbols** for iconography: baseline-aligned, Dynamic Type-aware, weight and scale variants. Don't mix in a web icon set. <!-- rule:ios-components-sf-symbols -->
|
||
- **Deliberate modality.** Sheet for a focused dismissible sub-task, full-screen cover for immersion. Clear Cancel/Done; honor swipe-to-dismiss unless data loss requires a guard. <!-- rule:ios-components-modality -->
|
||
- **Grouped/inset lists** for settings-shaped content; no bespoke card stacks. <!-- rule:ios-components-grouped-lists -->
|
||
|
||
## Motion
|
||
|
||
- **System transitions.** Push slides, sheets rise, dismiss reverses the entrance. Custom transitions that fight the navigation model disorient. <!-- rule:ios-motion-system-transitions -->
|
||
- **Honor Reduce Motion.** Crossfade instead of parallax and large slides. <!-- rule:ios-motion-reduce-motion -->
|
||
|
||
## Verifying the build
|
||
|
||
- **Screenshots come from the Simulator, never a browser.** Build and run, then capture with `xcrun simctl io booted screenshot <path>` (with several running, replace `booted` with the target's UDID from `xcrun simctl list devices booted`; display names can collide, the UDID never does). Capture every device class the app ships to, at least one iPhone and, when iPad is a target, one iPad, and write the files where the review flow expects them. <!-- rule:ios-verify-simulator-capture -->
|
||
- **Dark Mode and Dynamic Type belong in the pass.** `xcrun simctl ui booted appearance dark` flips appearance, reusing the capture's UDID when several are booted; a check at a large Dynamic Type size catches the truncation a fixed layout hides. <!-- rule:ios-verify-appearance-and-type -->
|
||
- **Simulators give breadth; posture, gestures, and performance need hardware.** Say which one produced the evidence. <!-- rule:ios-verify-hardware-honesty -->
