cometchat-ios-v5-sdk

Add voice & video calling to any iOS app FROM SCRATCH with the headless CometChat Calls SDK v5 (`CometChatCallsSDK`, via Swift Package Manager) — no UI Kit. init→login→generateToken→joinSession into a UIView, CallSession listeners, in-call actions (mute/video/layout/record/transcribe/PiP), meet-style session rooms AND 1:1 ringing (Chat SDK signaling + Calls SDK media). Triggers: 'add calling from scratch ios', 'standalone video call swift', 'headless calls sdk ios', 'build my own call screen ios', 'meeting room join by session id ios', 'one-on-one ringing call without uikit ios'.

> **Ground truth:** `CometChatCallsSDK` v5 + catalog `ios-calls-v5.json` (the closed symbol list — every type below is in it). Official docs: `/calls/ios/**` = **v5** · Docs MCP. Fetch exact `SessionSettings` fields, event names and signatures from the docs (`references/docs-map.md`) — never memory. **⚠<U+FE0F> Twelve doc pages contain symbols that DO NOT COMPILE — see "Doc corrections" below; prefer THIS skill's names over the page's.** **APPEND to the user's app — additive wiring only.**

## Companion skills (read first)
- **Standalone/headless entry** — owns its own package (the Calls SDK), no `-core` sibling, never depends on the iOS UI Kit. **1:1 ringing** additionally drives the **Chat SDK** (`CometChatSDK` v4) for signaling.
- **App wants chat too, or the prebuilt call UI?** `cometchat-ios-core` + `cometchat-ios-calls` — not this skill.

## Use this skill when
"add calling from scratch / without the UI Kit", "standalone voice/video on iOS", "build my own call screen", "headless calls SDK", "meeting-room join by session id", "one-on-one ringing".

## ASK FIRST (BAKED) — two choices, and NOTHING upstream asks them
Ask whichever the request has not already settled, then **WAIT**. Never infer from silence — each answer means a different SDK set and a different screen.
1. **Prebuilt call UI, or build your own?** Prebuilt (drop-in, themeable) → **STOP, route to `cometchat-ios-calls`.** Build your own → continue here.
2. **Meet-style room, or 1:1 ringing?** *Room* — everyone joining the same session id lands in one call; Calls SDK only. *Ringing* — you call a specific user and their device rings; adds `CometChatSDK` v4 for signaling (signatures: `references/docs-map.md` § "1:1 RINGING"), plus `CometChatPushNotifications` to ring while the app is backgrounded/closed.
