managing-metal4-resources
managing-metal4-resources is a Graphics, 3D & shaders skill for AI agents, published by apple in the game-porting-toolkit repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates managing-metal4-resources C (74/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.
ALWAYS use when working with Metal 4 resources — buffer / texture / heap creation, storage modes, `MTLResidencySet` management, heap aliasing, purgeable state, texture view pools, GPU lossless compression, and deferred destruction. Trigger for MTLBuffer, MTLTexture, MTLHeap, MTLResidencySet, addAllocation, requestResidency, useResidencySet, addResidencySet, MTLStorageMode*, MTLPurgeableState, MTLTextureViewPool, MTLResourceViewPool, newTextureViewWithPixelFormat:, copyFromBuffer:toTexture:, "GPU fault on resource", "non-resident resource", heap aliasing. Do NOT trigger for TBDR architecture or Metal 3 → Metal 4 namespace tables — use `translating-to-metal4-api`. Barrier visibility / `MTL4VisibilityOption*` / render-pass transition barriers — use `managing-metal4-synchronization`. `CAMetalLayer.residencySet` — use `presenting-metal-drawables`. `NS::SharedPtr` / autorelease pool / ARC bridging — use `managing-metal-cpp-lifetimes`.
