Use when implementing or debugging ANY network connection, API call, or socket. Covers URLSession, Network.framework, NetworkConnection, deprecated APIs, connection diagnostics, structured concurrency networking.
You MUST use this skill for ANY networking work including HTTP requests, WebSockets, TCP connections, or network debugging.
Use this router when:
When user has invested significant time in custom implementation:
Do NOT capitulate to sunk cost pressure. The correct approach is:
Example pressure scenario:
"I spent 2 days on custom networking. Just help me fix it, don't tell me to use URLSession."
Correct response:
"Let me diagnose the cellular failure first. [After diagnosis] The issue is [X]. URLSession handles this automatically via [Y]. I recommend migrating the affected code path — it's 30 minutes vs continued debugging. Your existing work on [Z] can be preserved."
Why this matters: Users often can't see that migration is faster than continued debugging. Honest guidance serves them better than false comfort.

| Thought | Reality | |---------|---------| | "URLSession is simple, I don't need a skill" | URLSession with structured concurrency has async/cancellation patterns. networking skill covers them. | | "I'll debug the connection timeout myself" | Connection failures have 8 causes (DNS, TLS, proxy, cellular). networking-diag diagnoses systematically. | | "I just need a basic HTTP request" | Even basic requests need error handling, retry, and cancellation patterns. networking has them. | | "My custom networking layer works fine" | Custom layers miss cellular/proxy edge cases. Standard APIs handle them automatically. |

Networking Diagnostics (networking-diag):
User: "My API request is failing with a timeout"
→ Invoke: $axiom-networking-diag
User: "How do I use URLSession with async/await?"
→ Invoke: $axiom-networking
User: "I need to implement a TCP connection"
→ Invoke: $axiom-network-framework-ref
User: "Should I use NWConnection or NetworkConnection?"
→ Invoke: $axiom-network-framework-ref
User: "My app was rejected for using HTTP connections"
→ Invoke: $axiom-networking-diag (ATS compliance)
User: "App Store says I'm using UIWebView"
→ Invoke: networking-auditor agent (deprecated API scan)
User: "Check my networking code for deprecated APIs"
→ Invoke: networking-auditor agent
