Sosumi
If you're building anything on Apple platforms and need to grab API docs, HIG pages, or WWDC transcripts as clean Markdown, this is the fastest route. It mirrors developer.apple.com under a different domain that returns structured text instead of HTML, so you can search for SwiftUI views or fetch Foundation docs without scraping. The MCP integration gives you four clean tools for search and fetch operations. Works with external Swift-DocC sites too, like Swift Package Index pages. The only catch is you need to know roughly what you're looking for, but the search tool handles that. Beats copying and pasting from Safari.

Sosumi Skill
Use this skill to reliably fetch Apple docs as Markdown when coding agents need precise API details.
When to Use
Use Sosumi when the request involves any of the following:
- Apple platform APIs (
Swift,SwiftUI,UIKit,AppKit,Foundation, etc.) - API signatures, availability, parameter behavior, or return semantics
- Human Interface Guidelines questions
- WWDC session transcript lookup
- External Swift-DocC documentation (for example, GitHub Pages or Swift Package Index hosts)
Core Workflow
- If you already have a
developer.apple.comURL, replace the host withsosumi.aiand keep the same path. - If you do not know the exact page path, search first, then fetch the best match.
- Prefer specific symbol pages instead of broad top-level pages when answering implementation questions.
Optional CLI Preflight
If the Sosumi CLI is available, quickly verify local access before deeper debugging:
sosumi --versionconfirms the CLI is installed and onPATH.sosumi --helpshows top-level usage.sosumi <command> --helpis the manual for command-specific behavior.
HTTP Usage
Replace developer.apple.com with sosumi.ai:
