Core ML Skills

Combined advisory, generator, and workflow skill for integrating machine learning into Apple platform apps. Covers Core ML model integration, Vision framework image analysis, NaturalLanguage framework text processing, Create ML training, and on-device model optimization.

When This Skill Activates

Use this skill when the user:

• Wants to add ML capabilities to their app
• Needs to integrate a Core ML model (.mlmodel) into an Xcode project
• Wants to use the Vision framework for image analysis (faces, text recognition, body pose, object detection)
• Wants to use the NaturalLanguage framework for text processing (sentiment, entities, language detection)
• Needs to train a custom model with Create ML
• Wants to optimize a model for on-device use (quantization, pruning, palettization)
• Needs to choose between Core ML and Foundation Models (Apple Intelligence)
• Asks about image classification, object detection, sound classification, or tabular data prediction
• Wants real-time camera + ML processing
