energykit — Claude Code skill: what it does, how to install

Q: How do I install energykit in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add dpearson2699/swift-ios-skills --skill energykit -a claude-code`. The skill file installs to `~/.claude/skills/energykit/SKILL.md`.

Q: What entitlements are needed to use EnergyKit?

Your app target must include `com.apple.developer.energykit`. If you integrate load events with the Apple Home app on iOS 27+, you also need `com.apple.developer.energykit.loadevents-experience`.

Provides guidance for Apple EnergyKit to query grid electricity forecasts and report load events for smart home devices, EV chargers, and HVAC systems.

What energykit does

The skill guides agents through Apple EnergyKit integration in Swift. It covers querying the ElectricityGuidance.Service forecast stream. Rating values range from 0.0 to 1.0. Lower values indicate cleaner and cheaper power. It shows how to schedule device runtime using .shift or .reduce actions. It also outlines load telemetry via ElectricVehicleLoadEvent and ElectricHVACLoadEvent.

Apps require the com.apple.developer.energykit entitlement. Without it, calls fail with EnergyKitError.permissionDenied. Apps targeting the iOS 27 Home app experience also need com.apple.developer.energykit.loadevents-experience.

Apple limits documented electricity guidance to the contiguous United States. Your code must catch EnergyKitError.unsupportedRegion. Core framework APIs start at iOS 26.0, while cleanliness breakdowns require iOS 26.1+.

What it helps with

query electricity cleanliness and cost forecasts using ElectricityGuidance.Service
schedule EV charging windows based on .shift guidance ratings
report HVAC runtime telemetry with ElectricHVACLoadEvent
handle EnergyKitError.unsupportedRegion outside the contiguous United States

Example prompts for the agent

Show me how to observe the ElectricityGuidance forecast stream in Swift.
Create a SwiftUI view displaying ElectricityGuidance.Value intervals and ratings.
Write a function to submit an ElectricVehicleLoadEvent with required EnergyKit entitlements.
