npx skills add https://github.com/dpearson2699/swift-ios-skills --skill audioaccessorykitWhat is this skill?
- Separates container-app register(_:) from extension current(for:) / update(_:)
- Uses AccessoryControlDevice.Configuration rather than raw Capabilities-only registration
- Documents .audioSwitching and .placement for placement-aware automatic switching
- Includes eval expectations for AccessoryControlDevice.Error handling
- Targets headphones already paired through AccessorySetupKit
