Swift Concurrency Patterns

Comprehensive guide for Swift concurrency covering async/await, structured concurrency, actors, and the Swift 6.2 "Approachable Concurrency" features. Focuses on patterns that prevent data races and common mistakes that cause crashes.

When This Skill Activates

• User has data race errors or actor isolation compiler errors
• User is migrating to Swift 6 strict concurrency
• User asks about async/await, actors, Sendable, TaskGroup, or MainActor
• User needs to bridge legacy completion-handler APIs to async/await
• User is working with Swift 6.2 features (@concurrent, isolated conformances)
• User has concurrency bugs (actor reentrancy, task cancellation, UI freezes)
