What specifically does this HealthKit skill review?

It reviews authorization flows, query predicates, background delivery lifecycle, and unit conversions to ensure your HealthKit code is efficient and follows Apple's guidelines.

Why should I use this over a general linter?

General linters don't understand the complex state and background requirements of the HealthKit framework; this skill provides domain-specific logic for health data.

Can it help prevent app crashes during background sync?

Yes, it specifically checks for proper completion handler calls in observer queries and background delivery registration, which are critical for app stability.

Does it identify issues with HealthKit privacy permissions?

It ensures that you are using minimal permissions and properly handling the fact that iOS does not reveal read-access status to protect user privacy.

Is this skill useful for both Swift and Objective-C developers?

Yes, while modern implementations often use Swift, the skill recognizes core HealthKit framework types and logic applicable to both languages.
