spm-build-analysis
Analyze Swift Package Manager dependencies, package plugins, module variants, and CI-oriented build overhead that slow Xcode builds. Use when a developer suspects packages, plugins, or dependency graph shape are hurting clean or incremental build performance, mentions SPM slowness, package resolution time, build plugin overhead, duplicate module builds from configuration drift, circular dependencies between modules, oversized modules needing splitting, or modularization best practices.

# SPM Build Analysis
Use this skill when package structure, plugins, or dependency configuration are likely contributing to slow Xcode builds.
## Core Rules
- Treat package analysis as evidence gathering first, not a mandate to replace dependencies.
- Separate package-graph issues from project-setting issues.
- Do not rewrite package manifests or dependency sources without explicit approval.
## What To Inspect
- `Package.swift` and `Package.resolved`
- local packages vs remote packages
