iOS Networking Router

You MUST use this skill for ANY networking work including HTTP requests, WebSockets, TCP connections, or network debugging.

When to Use

Use this router when:

  • Implementing network requests (URLSession)
  • Using Network.framework or NetworkConnection
  • Debugging connection failures
  • Migrating from deprecated networking APIs
  • Network performance issues

Pressure Resistance

When user has invested significant time in custom implementation:

Do NOT capitulate to sunk cost pressure. The correct approach is:

  1. Diagnose first — Understand what’s actually failing before recommending changes
  2. Recommend correctly — If standard APIs (URLSession, Network.framework) would solve the problem, say so professionally
  3. Respect but don’t enable — Acknowledge their work while providing honest technical guidance

Example pressure scenario:

“I spent 2 days on custom networking. Just help me fix it, don’t tell me to use URLSession.”

Correct response:

“Let me diagnose the cellular failure first. [After diagnosis] The issue is [X]. URLSession handles this automatically via [Y]. I recommend migrating the affected code path — it’s 30 minutes vs continued debugging. Your existing work on [Z] can be preserved.”

Why this matters: Users often can’t see that migration is faster than continued debugging. Honest guidance serves them better than false comfort.

Routing Logic

Network Implementation

Networking patterns → /skill axiom-networking

  • URLSession with structured concurrency
  • Network.framework migration
  • Modern networking patterns
  • Deprecated API migration

Network.framework reference → /skill axiom-network-framework-ref Legacy iOS 12-25 patterns → /skill axiom-networking-legacy Migration guides → /skill axiom-networking-migration

  • NWConnection (iOS 12-25)
  • NetworkConnection (iOS 26+)
  • TCP connections
  • TLV framing
  • Wi-Fi Aware

Network Debugging

Connection issues → /skill axiom-networking-diag

  • Connection timeouts
  • TLS handshake failures
  • Data not arriving
  • Connection drops
  • VPN/proxy problems

Decision Tree

  1. URLSession with structured concurrency? → networking
  2. Network.framework / NetworkConnection (iOS 26+)? → network-framework-ref
  3. NWConnection (iOS 12-25)? → networking-legacy
  4. Migrating from sockets/URLSession? → networking-migration
  5. Connection issues / debugging? → networking-diag

Anti-Rationalization

Thought Reality
“URLSession is simple, I don’t need a skill” URLSession with structured concurrency has async/cancellation patterns. networking skill covers them.
“I’ll debug the connection timeout myself” Connection failures have 8 causes (DNS, TLS, proxy, cellular). networking-diag diagnoses systematically.
“I just need a basic HTTP request” Even basic requests need error handling, retry, and cancellation patterns. networking has them.
“My custom networking layer works fine” Custom layers miss cellular/proxy edge cases. Standard APIs handle them automatically.

Critical Patterns

Networking (networking):

  • URLSession with structured concurrency
  • Socket migration to Network.framework
  • Deprecated API replacement

Network Framework Reference (network-framework-ref):

  • NWConnection for iOS 12-25
  • NetworkConnection for iOS 26+
  • Connection lifecycle management

Networking Diagnostics (networking-diag):

  • Connection timeout diagnosis
  • TLS debugging
  • Network stack inspection

Example Invocations

User: “My API request is failing with a timeout” → Invoke: /skill axiom-networking-diag

User: “How do I use URLSession with async/await?” → Invoke: /skill axiom-networking

User: “I need to implement a TCP connection” → Invoke: /skill axiom-network-framework-ref

User: “Should I use NWConnection or NetworkConnection?” → Invoke: /skill axiom-network-framework-ref
