SwiftUI Gestures (iOS 26+)

Review, write, and fix SwiftUI gesture interactions. Apply modern gesture APIs with correct composition, state management, and conflict resolution using Swift 6.3 patterns.

Scope boundary: This skill owns SwiftUI gesture recognition, composition, gesture state, and gesture-specific accessibility alternatives. Broader SwiftUI architecture/state ownership belongs in swiftui-patterns; list, scroll, form, and control layout belongs in swiftui-layout-components; broad UIKit bridging belongs in swiftui-uikit-interop.

When correcting Apple API availability, deprecation, or behavior claims, cite the relevant Sosumi or official Apple documentation URL in the response.
