Definition
What HIG Doctor does
HIG Doctor is an open-source CLI and agent-skill collection for reviewing apps against Apple's Human Interface Guidelines. It gives a design or engineering review a repeatable checklist before a redesign, implementation review, or release decision.
Audience
Who it is for
HIG Doctor is for product designers, iOS and macOS engineers, and coding agents that need to connect interface feedback to Apple's published platform guidance rather than rely on generic visual preference.
Capabilities
Agent skills
Focused skills give coding agents platform and interface guidance in the tools where implementation work happens.
Review timing
The checks are designed for use before redesign, review, or release, when a finding can still change the product.
How the work stays reviewable
Guideline-backed feedback
Findings are framed around Apple interface guidance instead of unsupported style preferences.
Human review
An audit identifies issues for a designer or engineer to judge; it does not replace product context or accessibility testing.
Inspectable source
The public repository and published skills expose the checks and guidance used by the tool.
