The full text of 'The Swift Programming Language' packaged as a Claude skill and regenerated nightly — your language reference, inside the chat.
A reference skill that embeds Apple's official Swift Programming Language book in Claude's Skill format. Regenerated nightly against the upstream repo, so version numbers reflect both the Swift version and the date. Makes Claude Swift-language-accurate without relying on training-cutoff knowledge. Works in Claude Code and Claude Desktop.
