SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Remove development-time instrumentation and DEBUG wiring from an iOS app to ensure lean Release builds free of debug artifacts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Remove the DebugBridge SPM package and all #if DEBUG wiring from the iOS app.
  • Strips app-side hooks and instrumentation installed by ios-qa, reducing runtime surface area in production.
  • Use Case: before releasing an iOS app, run ios-clean to ensure no debug components remain in the final binary.

Quick Start

Run the ios-clean skill to strip DebugBridge references and #if DEBUG wiring from the iOS app.

FAQPage Schema
How do I remove DebugBridge instrumentation from my iOS app before release?▼

To remove DebugBridge instrumentation from an iOS app, you can run a process that strips DebugBridge SPM package dependencies, DebugOverlay hooks, and #if DEBUG wiring to ensure lean Release builds free of debug artifacts.

What is the best way to strip #if DEBUG wiring from a Swift Xcode project?▼

Stripping #if DEBUG wiring from a Swift Xcode project involves safely identifying and removing development-time assets and conditional DEBUG codegen outputs without affecting runtime functionality in production builds.

Does ios-clean work with SPM package manager configurations in Xcode?▼

Yes, ios-clean works with SPM package manager configurations in Xcode by safely identifying and removing DebugBridge dependencies and QA-related codegen outputs installed by ios-qa without affecting runtime functionality.

Why does my iOS Release build still contain QA-related codegen outputs?▼

Your iOS Release build may contain QA-related codegen outputs because DebugBridge dependencies and DebugOverlay hooks installed by ios-qa were not stripped from the project prior to building the final binary.

Can I use ios-clean to reduce the runtime surface area of my production iOS app?▼

Yes, you can use ios-clean to reduce the runtime surface area of your production iOS app by stripping app-side hooks, DebugBridge references, and DEBUG conditional wiring installed during development.

What are the limitations of stripping DEBUG wiring from an iOS app?▼

The primary limitation of stripping DEBUG wiring is that it requires access to the project's package manager and build configuration to safely identify and remove only development-time assets without affecting runtime functionality.
