Use when designing, reviewing, or implementing typography in Apple-platform apps — SwiftUI text styles, hierarchy, readable sizes, monospaced data, custom fonts, labels, captions, and accessibility.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Apple HIG Typography

Apply system text styles, a small hierarchy, and accessible sizing to typography in Apple-platform apps. Reach for it when cleaning up fonts, building readable dashboards or popovers, or reviewing custom-font and accessibility decisions.

## Purpose

Use this skill when designing, reviewing, or implementing typography in Apple-platform apps.

Use for SwiftUI text styles, macOS typography, iOS typography, hierarchy, readable sizes, monospaced data, custom font decisions, labels, captions, metadata, and accessibility.

## Core rule

```
Use system text styles first. Customize only when the product needs it.
```

Typography should make the interface easier to scan, not more decorative.

## When to use this skill

Use this skill for:

- Typography cleanup
- Font hierarchy
- Dashboard readability
- Menu bar popover text
- Settings text
- Inspector labels
- Metadata text
- Code/terminal-style UI
- Custom font review
- Accessibility text review

## When not to use this skill

Do not use this skill for:

- Icon choice; use `apple-hig-sf-symbols`
- Spacing/layout only; use `apple-hig-layout`
- Sidebar structure; use `apple-hig-sidebars`

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add aka-kika/akakika-skills/apple-hig-typography@sha256:1a9dd98ae191a2c7

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260620.ea86eb3, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
