ios-icon-gen
Generate iOS app icons as PNG imagesets for Xcode asset catalogs from SF Symbols (5000+ Apple-native) or Iconify API (275k+ open source icons from 200+ collections). Use when generating icons, creating icon assets, adding icons to asset catalog, or searching for icons for iOS projects.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for claude-code, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# iOS Icon Generator Generate PNG icon imagesets for Xcode asset catalogs from two sources. ## When to Activate - Generating icon assets for an iOS/macOS Xcode project - Searching for icons across open source collections - Creating PNG imagesets (1x, 2x, 3x) for asset catalogs - Replacing placeholder icons with production-quality assets - Matching existing icon styles in an Xcode project ## Core Principles ### 1. Two Sources, One Output Format Both sources produce identical Xcode-compatible imagesets. Choose based on need: | Source | Icons | Requires | Best for | |--------|-------|----------|----------| | **Iconify API** | 275,000+ from 200+ collections | Internet | Wide selection, specific styles, open source icons | | **SF Symbols** | 5,000+ Apple symbols | macOS only | Apple-native style, offline use | ### 2. Always Match Existing Style Before generating, check the project's existing icons for size, color, and weight consistency. ### 3. Output Structure Both methods produce a complete Xcode imageset: ``` <output-dir>/<asset-name>.imageset/ Contents.json <asset-name>.png # 1x (68px default) <asset-name>@2x.png # 2x (136px default) <asset-name>@3x.png # 3x (204px default) ``` ## E

What does the ios-icon-gen skill do?
Generate iOS app icons as PNG imagesets for Xcode asset catalogs from SF Symbols (5000+ Apple-native) or Iconify API (275k+ open source icons from 200+ collections). Use when generating icons, creating icon assets, adding icons to asset catalog, or searching for icons for iOS projects.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add mturac/everything-openai-codex --skill ios-icon-gen --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From mturac/everything-openai-codex, a repository with 84 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
