Axiom Memory Debugging

A straightforward debugging skill that teaches Claude to diagnose iOS memory issues systematically rather than guessing. It's built around the idea that 90% of memory leaks follow three patterns: retain cycles, timer/observer leaks, and collection growth. Good for when your app crashes after extended use or view controllers won't deallocate. The prompts are practical (why does memory jump from 50MB to 200MB on this action) and it pushes you toward Instruments instead of random fixes. Part of the larger Axiom skill collection. If you're hunting memory problems in iOS apps, this gives Claude a solid framework to work from.
