Xcode 27, announced at WWDC'26, ships with 7 official agent skills that can be exported to third-party AI coding IDEs like Claude, Codex, and Cursor using the new `xcrun agent skills export` CLI command. The seven skills cover UIKit modernization, device interaction testing, SwiftUI new APIs for 2027 OS releases, SwiftUI best practices, XCTest-to-Swift-Testing migration, C bounds safety, and Xcode security settings auditing. Exporting is a one-command process that places skills in `~/.agents/skills`, a directory recognized by most agent-capable IDEs.
