What this skill does

# Apple Services & Frameworks
Apple framework/service integration guidance — design rules and constraints for surfacing services like Pay, HealthKit, Siri, Wallet, App Clips, widgets, and hardware framework features (camera, sensors, Control Center). Pair with the platform skill when the service has device-specific UI.

## How to use
1. **Identify the framework or service** the user wants to integrate, find it in the glossary.
2. **Read the topic's references**. Directory topics typically split overview, design, privacy, and platform notes.
3. **Combine with the platform skill** when the service surfaces UI on a specific device (e.g., Apple Pay button on iOS).
4. **Honor service-mandated rules strictly** — many services (Pay, Sign in with Apple, Wallet) carry legal/branding requirements.
