This is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.
What it does
The skill helps the agent understand why an Xcode project builds slowly and what to change. It runs benchmarks of clean and incremental builds, analyzes the results and suggests changes to settings and project structure. A separate project analyzer inspects the current configuration. The skill installs as a Claude Code plugin, via the skills installer, or by copying folders for Codex.
Who it is for. For iOS and macOS developers who want to cut Xcode build time.
Good fit when
- Your Xcode project build has become slow and gets in the way
- You need to benchmark and compare clean and incremental build time
- You need to see which project settings slow the build
Not a fit when
- The project is not on Xcode or the Apple stack
- You need app logic changes rather than build optimization
Example request
Benchmark my Xcode project build time and suggest how to cut itLimitations
The skill targets Xcode projects and needs a local Apple build environment. Benchmarks take time and depend on hardware, and some recommendations need verification on the specific project. Cursor installation is listed as coming soon.
How to disable. Uninstall via /plugin or remove the skill folders from the agent's skills directory.
FAQ
What exactly does the skill measure?
Clean and incremental build times, to find bottlenecks and compare the effect of settings changes.
Can I install only the project analyzer?
Yes, the skills installer lets you add the separate xcode-project-analyzer skill.

README in short
The README introduces a set of agent skills for Xcode build optimization: clean and incremental build benchmarks, settings tuning and project structure analysis. The skill installs via the skills installer, as a Claude Code plugin, or by copying folders into the Codex skills directory. A separate project analyzer is available.
