What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the critical issue of data loss in macOS applications by implementing robust crash recovery, state restoration, and autosave mechanisms, ensuring a seamless user experience even after unexpected terminations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Graceful Termination Handling: Implements NSApplicationDelegate.applicationShouldTerminate(_:) to prompt users to save unsaved changes before quitting.
  • State Restoration: Utilizes @SceneStorage to automatically restore UI state, such as selected tabs or navigation history, after an app relaunch.
  • Core Data Autosave: Configures periodic and event-driven saving for Core Data contexts to prevent data loss during the application's lifecycle.
  • Multi-Step Operation Safety: Provides patterns for saving Core Data changes atomically for complex operations, preventing partial commits.
  • QA Testing Guidance: Includes a specific edge case for QA to force-quit the application and verify data integrity and UI recovery.

Quick Start

Implement the macos-crash-recovery skill to ensure your macOS application properly saves its state and recovers gracefully from crashes.
