## What it does

This skill searches documentation for Apple's UserNotifications framework. When asked about notification APIs, it provides a concise summary followed by references to relevant documentation files.

The skill bundles guides for core framework parts. Files include `notifications-overview.md` for framework basics and `unusernotificationcenter.md` for notification management. Request creation is covered in `unnotificationrequest.md`, while `unmutablenotificationcontent.md` details notification titles and body content. Two trigger types are documented: calendar schedules in `uncalendarnotificationtrigger.md` and interval triggers in `untimeintervalnotificationtrigger.md`.

Execution runs inside an isolated Explore subagent context. This keeps documentation out of chat history.
