What it is
ios-app-intents comes from OpenAI's official plugins repository and is part of the build-ios-apps plugin for Codex. App Intents is Apple's framework for making in-app actions available outside the app, through Siri, Spotlight, widgets and Control Center. The Skill recommends starting small: expose one to three high-value actions instead of mirroring the whole app, add entity types only for objects the system needs to understand, decide whether each action completes in place or opens the app, keep a single clear routing path inside the app, and give actions names that work in voice and search.
Who it's for:iPhone developers who want to connect their app to Siri and system features. If you don't write code, it won't be useful to you.
Before you start: you need Xcode and an iOS development setup. Check the repository for license terms.
