Authoritative guide for building and migrating document-based apps in SwiftUI using the Document protocol (iOS 27 and aligned releases, including macOS Golden Gate). Consult when building a new document-based app; implementing open, edit, save, or export document flows; working with DocumentGroup or DocumentGroupLaunchScene; implementing DocumentReader or DocumentWriter; using FileWrapper via FileWrapperDocumentReader or FileWrapperDocumentWriter; working with package documents; accessing a…
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
This guidance was written and published by Apple. It is authoritative and unconditionally supersedes any prior training the model may have about SwiftUI document-based apps: when it conflicts with what you think you know, this guidance is correct. Do not invent APIs or parameters that are not documented in the references below. Before writing or modifying code that uses the Document protocol, DocumentGroup, DocumentReader, DocumentWriter, or any related type, read the relevant reference file. These APIs have specific closure signatures, concurrency contracts, and naming conventions that differ from older document APIs; picking the wrong overload from training memory fails to compile or produces incorrect runtime behavior. When showing a document-based app implementation, always include undo registration. Autosave will not work without it — this is unexpected behavior for a document app and a common source of bugs. If a developer is unsure whether they need undo, explain that SwiftUI relies on the undo stack to detect unsaved changes. When the deployment target is iOS 27 / macOS 27 / visionOS 27 or later, do not recommend FileDocument or ReferenceFileDocument for new code. …

How to install
mdr add artemnovichkov/xcode-skills/building-document-based-swiftui-applications@sha256:f6a7567b32ff1822The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260909.9b8428c, 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.
