SkillSignal prompt templates

Provide the task, context, and acceptance criteria

These prompts were written by SkillSignal from the source structure; they are not upstream text.

Task-start prompt

Confirm source fit, inputs, and outputs before acting.

Use ios-icon-gen to help me with: [specific task]. Context: [files, data, or background]. Constraints: [environment, scope, and prohibited actions]. Before acting, check the pinned SKILL.md and explain which sections apply, what inputs are still missing, and what you will deliver.

Source-guided execution

Make the Agent explicitly follow the key extracted sections.

Apply the pinned ios-icon-gen source to [task]. Pay particular attention to these source sections: “Step 1: Assess Requirements”, “Step 2: Search for Icons”, “Step 3: Preview (Optional)”, “Step 4: Generate”, “Step 5: Verify and Integrate”. Preserve the important decision at each step. Mark facts not covered by the source as “needs confirmation” instead of inventing them. Then verify the result against my acceptance criteria: [criteria].

Result-review prompt

Check omissions, permissions, and source drift before delivery.

Review the current ios-icon-gen result: (1) does it satisfy the original task; (2) were any applicable steps or limits in the pinned SKILL.md missed; (3) did it perform any unauthorized file, command, network, or data action; and (4) which conclusions remain unverified? List issues first, then fix only what the source or user authorization supports.

iOS Icon Generator

Generate PNG icon imagesets for Xcode asset catalogs from two sources.

When to Activate

  • Generating icon assets for an iOS/macOS Xcode project
  • Searching for icons across open source collections
  • Creating PNG imagesets (1x, 2x, 3x) for asset catalogs
  • Replacing placeholder icons with production-quality assets
  • Matching existing icon styles in an Xcode project

Core Principles

1. Two Sources, One Output Format

Both sources produce identical Xcode-compatible imagesets. Choose based on need:

SourceIconsRequiresBest for
Iconify API275,000+ from 200+ collectionsInternetWide selection, specific styles, open source icons
SF Symbols5,000+ Apple symbolsmacOS onlyApple-native style, offline use

2. Always Match Existing Style

Before generating, check the project's existing icons for size, color, and weight consistency.

3. Output Structure

Both methods produce a complete Xcode imageset:

<output-dir>/<asset-name>.imageset/
  Contents.json
  <asset-name>.png        # 1x (68px default)
  <asset-name>@2x.png     # 2x (136px default)
  <asset-name>@3x.png     # 3x (204px default)

Examples

Step 1: Assess Requirements

Determine icon needs: what the icon represents, preferred style, target color, and size.

If the project already has icons, check existing style:

# Check dimensions of existing icon
sips -g pixelWidth -g pixelHeight path/to/existing@2x.png

Step 2: Search for Icons

Iconify API (recommended for wide selection):

# Search all collections
$SKILL_DIR/scripts/iconify_gen.sh search "receipt"

# Search within a specific collection
$SKILL_DIR/scripts/iconify_gen.sh search "business card" --prefix mdi

# List available collections
$SKILL_DIR/scripts/iconify_gen.sh collections

SF Symbols (for Apple-native style): Browse the SF Symbols app or reference common names:

Use CaseSymbol Name
Documentdoc.text, doc.fill
Receiptdoc.text.below.ecg, receipt
Personperson.crop.rectangle, person.text.rectangle
Cameracamera, camera.fill
Scandoc.viewfinder, qrcode.viewfinder
Settingsgearshape, slider.horizontal.3

Step 3: Preview (Optional)

# Iconify preview
$SKILL_DIR/scripts/iconify_gen.sh preview mdi:receipt-text-outline

Step 4: Generate

Iconify API:

# Basic generation
$SKILL_DIR/scripts/iconify_gen.sh mdi:receipt-text-outline editTool_expenseReport

# Custom color and output location
$SKILL_DIR/scripts/iconify_gen.sh mdi:receipt-text-outline myIcon --color 007AFF --output ./Assets.xcassets/icons

Options: --size <pt> (default: 68), --color <hex> (default: 8E8E93), --output <dir> (default: /tmp/icons)

SF Symbols:

# Basic generation
swift $SKILL_DIR/scripts/generate_icons.swift doc.text.below.ecg editTool_expenseReport

# Custom color, weight, and output
swift $SKILL_DIR/scripts/generate_icons.swift person.crop.rectangle myIcon --color 007AFF --weight regular --output ./Assets.xcassets/icons

Options: --size <pt> (default: 68), --color <hex> (default: 8E8E93), --weight <name> (default: thin), --output <dir> (default: /tmp/icons)

Step 5: Verify and Integrate

  1. Read the generated @2x PNG to verify visually
  2. Copy to asset catalog if not output there directly:
    cp -r /tmp/icons/<name>.imageset path/to/Assets.xcassets/<group>/
    
  3. Build the project to verify Xcode picks up the new assets

Best Practices

  • Search before generating -- browse available icons to find the best match
  • Match existing project style -- check dimensions, color, and weight of existing icons before generating new ones
  • Use Iconify for variety -- 200+ collections means you can find the exact style you need
  • Use SF Symbols for Apple consistency -- they match system UI perfectly
  • Generate directly to asset catalog -- use --output ./Assets.xcassets/icons to skip manual copying
  • Verify visually -- always preview the @2x PNG before committing

Anti-Patterns

  • Generating icons without checking existing project icon style
  • Using default colors when the project has a defined color palette
  • Generating at wrong sizes (check existing icons first)
  • Committing generated icons without visual verification
