--- name: ios-qa preamble-tier: 3 version: 1.0.0 description: Live-device iOS QA for SwiftUI apps. (gstack) allowed-tools: - Bash - Read - Write - Edit - Grep - Glob - AskUserQuestion triggers: - ios qa - test the iphone app - test my ios app - find bugs on the device - qa the ios app --- ## When to invoke this skill Connects to a real iPhone via USB CoreDevice IPv6 tunnel, reads Swift source to understand every screen, then runs a vision-driven agent loop: screenshot → analyze → decide → act → verify → repeat. All interaction happens via HTTP to an embedded StateServer in the app under test. Optionally exposes the device over Tailscale so remote agents (OpenClaw, Codex, any HTTP-capable agent) can run iOS QA from anywhere without touching the hardware. Use when asked to "ios qa", "test my iPhone app", "find bugs on the device", or "qa the iOS app". Voice triggers (speech-to-text aliases): "iOS quality check", "test the iPhone app", "run iOS QA". ## Preamble (run first) ```bash _UPD=$(~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-update-check 2>/dev/null || .claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-update-check 2>/dev/null || true) [ -n "$_UPD" ] && echo "$_UPD" || true mkdir -p ~/.gstack/sessions touch ~/.gstack/sessions/"$PPID" _SESSIONS=$(find ~/.gstack/sessions -mmin -120 -type f 2>/dev/null | wc -l | tr -d ' ') find ~/.gstack/sessions -mmin +120 -type f -exec rm {} + 2>/dev/null || true _PROACTIVE=$(~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config get proactive 2>/dev/null || echo "true") _PROACTIVE_PROMPTED=$([ -f ~/.gstack/.proactive-prompted ] && echo "yes" || echo "no") _BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current 2>/dev/null || echo "unknown") echo "BRANCH: $_BRANCH" _SKILL_PREFIX=$(~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config get skill_prefix 2>/dev/null || echo "false") echo "PROACTIVE: $_PROACTIVE" echo "PROACTIVE_PROMPTED: $_PROACTIVE_PROMPTED" echo "SKILL_PREFIX: $_SKILL_PREFIX" source <(~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-repo-mode 2>/dev/null) || true REPO_MODE=${REPO_MODE:-unknown} echo "REPO_MODE: $REPO_MODE" _SESSION_KIND=$(~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-session-kind 2>/dev/null || echo "interactive") case "$_SESSION_KIND" in spawned|headless|interactive) ;; *) _SESSION_KIND="interactive" ;; esac echo "SESSION_KIND: $_SESSION_KIND" # Conductor host: AskUserQuestion is unreliable here (native disabled, MCP # variant flaky), so skills render decisions as prose instead of calling the # tool.

AskUserQuestion (any variant — `mcp__*__AskUserQuestion` or native; see "AskUserQuestion Format → Tool resolution") satisfies plan mode's end-of-turn requirement. If AskUserQuestion is unavailable or a call fails, follow the AskUserQuestion Format failure fallback: `headless` → BLOCKED; `interactive` → the prose fallback (also satisfies end-of-turn). At a STOP point, stop immediately. Do not continue the workflow or call ExitPlanMode there. Commands marked "PLAN MODE EXCEPTION — ALWAYS RUN" execute. Call ExitPlanMode only after the skill workflow completes, or if the user tells you to cancel the skill or leave plan mode. If `PROACTIVE` is `"false"`, do not auto-invoke or proactively suggest skills. If a skill seems useful, ask: "I think /skillname might help here — want me to run it?" If `SKILL_PREFIX` is `"true"`, suggest/invoke `/gstack-*` names. Disk paths stay `~/.claude/skills/gstack/[skill-name]/SKILL.md`. If output shows `UPGRADE_AVAILABLE `: read `~/.claude/skills/gstack/gstack-upgrade/SKILL.md` and follow the "Inline upgrade flow" (auto-upgrade if configured, otherwise AskUserQuestion with 4 options, write snooze state if declined). If output shows `JUST_UPGRADED `: print "Running gstack v{to} (just updated!)". If `SPAWNED_SESSION` is true, skip feature discovery. Feature discovery, max one prompt per session: - Missing `~/.claude/skills/gstack/.feature-prompted-continuous-checkpoint`: AskUserQuestion for Continuous checkpoint auto-commits. If accepted, run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set checkpoint_mode continuous`. Always touch marker. - Missing `~/.claude/skills/gstack/.feature-prompted-model-overlay`: inform "Model overlays are active. MODEL_OVERLAY shows the patch." Always touch marker. After upgrade prompts, continue workflow. If `WRITING_STYLE_PENDING` is `yes`: ask once about writing style: > v1 prompts are simpler: first-use jargon glosses, outcome-framed questions, shorter prose. Keep default or restore terse? Options: - A) Keep the new default (recommended — good writing helps everyone) - B) Restore V0 prose — set `explain_level: terse` If A: leave `explain_level` unset (defaults to `default`). If B: run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set explain_level terse`. Always run (regardless of choice): ```bash rm -f ~/.gstack/.writing-style-prompt-pending touch ~/.gstack/.writing-style-prompted ``` Skip if `WRITING_STYLE_PENDING` is `no`. If `LAKE_INTRO` is `no`: say "gstack follows the **Boil the Ocean** principle — do the complete thing when AI makes marginal cost near-zero. Read more: https://garryslist.org/posts/boil-the-ocean" Offer to open: ```bash open https://garryslist.org/posts/boil-the-ocean touch ~/.gstack/.completeness-intro-seen ``` Only run `open` if yes. Always run `touch`. If `TEL_PROMPTED` is `no` AND `LAKE_INTRO` is `yes`: ask telemetry once via AskUserQuestion: > Help gstack get better. Share usage data only: skill, duration, crashes, stable device ID. No code or file paths. Your repo name is recorded locally only and stripped before any upload. Options: - A) Help gstack get better! (recommended) - B) No thanks If A: run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set telemetry community` If B: ask follow-up: > Anonymous mode sends only aggregate usage, no unique ID. Options: - A) Sure, anonymous is fine - B) No thanks, fully off If B→A: run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set telemetry anonymous` If B→B: run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set telemetry off` Always run: ```bash touch ~/.gstack/.telemetry-prompted ``` Skip if `TEL_PROMPTED` is `yes`. If `PROACTIVE_PROMPTED` is `no` AND `TEL_PROMPTED` is `yes`: ask once: > Let gstack proactively suggest skills, like /qa for "does this work?" or /investigate for bugs? Options: - A) Keep it on (recommended) - B) Turn it off — I'll type /commands myself If A: run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set proactive true` If B: run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set proactive false` Always run: ```bash touch ~/.gstack/.proactive-prompted ``` Skip if `PROACTIVE_PROMPTED` is `yes`. If `HAS_ROUTING` is `no` AND `ROUTING_DECLINED` is `false` AND `PROACTIVE_PROMPTED` is `yes`: Check if a CLAUDE.md file exists in the project root. If it does not exist, create it. Use AskUserQuestion: > gstack works best when your project's CLAUDE.md includes skill routing rules. Options: - A) Add routing rules to CLAUDE.md (recommended) - B) No thanks, I'll invoke skills manually If A: Append this section to the end of CLAUDE.md: ```markdown ## Skill routing When the user's request matches an available skill, invoke it via the Skill tool. When in doubt, invoke the skill. Key routing rules: - Product ideas/brainstorming → invoke /office-hours - Strategy/scope → invoke /plan-ceo-review - Architecture → invoke /plan-eng-review - Design system/plan review → invoke /design-consultation or /plan-design-review - Full review pipeline → invoke /autoplan - Bugs/errors → invoke /investigate - QA/testing site behavior → invoke /qa or /qa-only - Code review/diff check → invoke /review - Visual polish → invoke /design-review - Ship/deploy/PR → invoke /ship or /land-and-deploy - Save progress → invoke /context-save - Resume context → invoke /context-restore - Author a backlog-ready spec/issue → invoke /spec ``` Then commit the change: `git add CLAUDE.md && git commit -m "chore: add gstack skill routing rules to CLAUDE.md"` If B: run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set routing_declined true` and say they can re-enable with `gstack-config set routing_declined false`. This only happens once per project. Skip if `HAS_ROUTING` is `yes` or `ROUTING_DECLINED` is `true`. If `VENDORED_GSTACK` is `yes`, warn once via AskUserQuestion unless `~/.gstack/.vendoring-warned-$SLUG` exists: > This project has gstack vendored in `.claude/skills/gstack/`. Vendoring is deprecated. > Migrate to team mode? Options: - A) Yes, migrate to team mode now - B) No, I'll handle it myself If A: 1. Run `git rm -r .claude/skills/gstack/` 2. Run `echo '.claude/skills/gstack/' >> .gitignore` 3. Run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-team-init required` (or `optional`) 4. Run `git add .claude/ .gitignore CLAUDE.md && git commit -m "chore: migrate gstack from vendored to team mode"` 5. Tell the user: "Done. Each developer now runs: `cd ~/.claude/skills/gstack && ./setup --team`" If B: say "OK, you're on your own to keep the vendored copy up to date." Always run (regardless of choice): ```bash eval "$(~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-slug 2>/dev/null)" 2>/dev/null || true touch ~/.gstack/.vendoring-warned-${SLUG:-unknown} ``` If marker exists, skip. If `SPAWNED_SESSION` is `"true"`, you are running inside a session spawned by an AI orchestrator (e.g., OpenClaw). In spawned sessions: - Do NOT use AskUserQuestion for interactive prompts. Auto-choose the recommended option. - Do NOT run upgrade checks, telemetry prompts, routing injection, or lake intro. - Focus on completing the task and reporting results via prose output. - End with a completion report: what shipped, decisions made, anything uncertain. ## AskUserQuestion Format ### Tool resolution (read first) "AskUserQuestion" can resolve to two tools at runtime: the **host MCP variant** (e.g. `mcp__conductor__AskUserQuestion` — appears in your tool list when the host registers it) or the **native** Claude Code tool. **Conductor rule (read before the MCP rule):** if `CONDUCTOR_SESSION: true` was echoed by the preamble, do NOT call AskUserQuestion at all — neither native nor any `mcp__*__AskUserQuestion` variant. Render EVERY decision brief as the **prose form** below and STOP. This is proactive, not a reaction to a failure: Conductor disables native AUQ and its MCP variant is flaky (it returns `[Tool result missing due to internal error]`), so prose is the reliable path. **Auto-decide preferences still apply first:** if a `[plan-tune auto-decide] →
