Xcode stuck generating localization comments

Xcode 26.5 stucks on Localization Generating Comments:

Running on macOS Tahoe 26.5

When this happens, Xcode does not add new keys, although enabled:

The only (known) workaround is to restart Xcode.

Same happened with Xcode 26.4, 26.4.1 on macOS 26.4.1.

Thanks for reporting the issue. Do you have a feedback report yet? If not, would you mind to file one with your project that reproduces the issue, and share your report ID here? Thanks.

Best,

I am experiencing the same issue, is there any known workaround?

Still happens with 26.6. I've now disabled this option, hoping that'll work around the issue.

Hello,

This is expected to be fixed in Xcode 27 Beta 5.
