Xcode 26 Butchers Productivity by Making Global the State of Navigators Pane
Here's the text of FB22008758 I've just submitted: Xcode 26 changed the behavior of the Navigators pane (which hopefully is a bug and not an intended behavior). in Xcode 26, if I close (or open) the Navigators pane in a window tab, it closes (or opens) the Navigators pane in ALL window tabs. This is insanely horrible, unproductive, time-wasting behavior that breaks workflows that has been established for many years (I've been using Xcode since 2006). By way of example: In a window tab that contains a .xib, I prefer the Navigators pane to be closed. While in all other window tabs (that contain code files and other items), I want the Navigators pane to be always displayed. Before Xcode 26, the Navigators pane was open or closed in each individual window tab as the user desired. But in Xcode 26, if I close the Navigators pane in one window tab, the pane closes EVERYWHERE. Thus when, for example, I go to a .xib window tab, I have to close the Navigators pane AGAIN. But then when I go back to a code window tab, I have to OPEN the Navigators pane there (because it became closed globally). And have to do this endlessly every day. WHY??? Please restore the normal, pre-26 behavior of the Navigators pane. That is, the Navigators pane should remain open or closed as PER INDIVIDUAL WINDOW TAB, not globally. Thank you for your attention to this important issue!

ShazamKit enabled on App ID but provisioning profiles do not include com.apple.developer.shazamkit entitlement
Hi, I’m a paid Apple Developer Program member and I’m seeing an entitlement issuance issue with ShazamKit. ShazamKit is enabled for my App ID (com.tomharris.dnbidfinder) in Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles. However, every iOS Development provisioning profile I generate does not include the entitlement: com.apple.developer.shazamkit verified this by decoding the downloaded .mobileprovision file: security cms -D -i .mobileprovision | /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Print :Entitlements" /dev/stdin The entitlement dictionary does not contain the ShazamKit key. Because of this: • The signed .app does not contain the Shazam entitlement • SHSession.match(signature) fails on device • I receive ShazamKit runtime error 201 / 212 I’ve already: • Toggled ShazamKit off and back on for the App ID • Created new provisioning profiles • Created a brand new App ID to test • Refreshed profiles in Xcode The portal UI shows ShazamKit as enabled, but the entitlement is not being issued into provisioning profiles. Has anyone experienced this before? Is there an additional approval step required for ShazamKit, or could this be a backend entitlement propagation issue? Thanks.

Xcode 26 Kills Productivity by Making Global the State of Inspectors Pane
Here's the text of FB22001359 I've just submitted: Xcode 26 changed the behavior of the Inspectors pane (which hopefully is a bug and not an intended behavior). Now, if I close (or open) the Inspectors pane in a window tab, it closes (or opens) the Inspectors pane in ALL tabs.

ChatGPT in Xcode - Networking error
In the Coding Intelligence feature introduced in Xcode 26, when I send a message using ChatGPT in Xcode, the message “Your request couldn't be completed. Networking error.” appears and I’m unable to use the feature. I suspect the issue may be related to the VPN or network proxy connected to my Mac and am attempting to investigate. However, Xcode does not display any specific error details, nor does it provide a way to view them, which makes a detailed investigation difficult. Next to the error message, there is a feedback button rather than a stethoscope (🩺) button, and the feedback window does not provide access to the underlying error information. Is there a way to view the detailed network error logs generated by ChatGPT in Xcode? (I am using Xcode 26.0.1.)

Your request couldn't be completed
Steps to reproduce: Open Xcode 26.3 → Settings → Intelligence → Claude sign-in Click the sign-in button — spinner begins, never completes An email the arrives with a magic link. The magic link opened a browser page which displayed a 6-digit verification code with instructions reading "enter this verification code where you first tried to sign in" — i.e. back in Xcode. However, Xcode was showing only an endless spinner with no code entry field anywhere in the UI. This is the core bug. I did since manage to complete authentication sign-in through a second browser verification field that eventually appeared after about 10 minutes and did get signed in, but the Claude Intelligence agent still returns "Your request could not be completed" even after successful sign-in and a full Xcode restart. Prior to this bug starting at 10 am on February 19 I had been using the intelligence agent successfully for about a week. Anthropic did have some sort of event on their system around February 18/19 so maybe this has been a result of that. I have notified Anthropic support and Apple Feedback Assistant. Does anybody have a workaround until either anthropic or Apple get back to me?

Perplexity's API Xcode integration
Hi, I'm a novice on Xcode and I have just created an API Key in order to use Perplexity as a model Provider in Xcode 26.4 (beta). The key is valid and, Perplexity support replies this: _The issue is that Xcode expects specific endpoint structures that don't fully match Perplexity's API. Xcode requires a /v1/models endpoint to list available models, which Perplexity doesn't currently provide in that format. Our API uses /chat/completions rather than /v1/chat/completions as well._ Is there a workaround to integrate it and get the benefits of new Intelligence features with Perplexity? Error code is "Provider is not valid - Models could not be fetched with the provided account details" Thanks for your help

Xcode 26.3 -> ChatGPT -> SSO Based Account
So through work, we have ChatGPT Enterprise accounts, that authenticate via SSO. I am trying to link it to my Xcode 26.3, and it starts the SSO process (I can see it navigate to Microsoft), but then it apparently fails, and then Xcode window says, I am logged out. I have tried multiple times, and confirmed the valid account... Anyway to get Xcode 26.3 to tie to my ChatGPT Enterprise Account?

When AI leads to lost prompts (26.3)
This was maddening: I had written a very long and detailed prompt, then went to select "Codex" from the drop down menu at the top "start a new conversation", and it wiped out the entire prompt I was working on. Well, of course it did: that drop down is part of the "Start a new Conversation" icon button, but it's position is too far away from the actual icon to infer that is its purpose. It should be a popup that shows the current choice for model (GPT-5, GPT 4.1, Codex). ANOTHER lost prompt problem. If you have a prompt-in-progress (AI is maybe building some code), and Xcode crashes, it might not save that prompt for when you re-launch. And how might that happen? Well, there's still numerous ways using the coding assistanty might crash. One I've notice is if you switch out to another app, or if you invoke a screen capture, it might crash.

Claude Code cannot create files in nested folders
Been playing with Claude Code in Xcode 26.3 as a code assistant and discovered it cannot create files in nested folders, only repo root. Letting Claude troubleshoot itself, it appears that str_replace_based_edit_tool strips forward slashes from the path variable. This is what Claude claims to send: <invoke name="str_replace_based_edit_tool"> <parameter name="command">create</parameter> <parameter name="path">/repo/Test App/EntityTestsAttempt3.swift</parameter> <parameter name="file_text"> // ... file contents ... </parameter> </invoke> And the file that gets created is: Test AppEntityTestsAttempt3.swift Anyone else run into this before or can reproduce it?

Active Membership but Xcode shows "Red X" at Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles
Hi everyone, I am struggling with a persistent issue regarding my Developer Program membership and Xcode syncing. Even though the Apple Developer Portal shows that my developer license is active and I have full access to App Store Connect, it is unfortunately not possible to sign applications with this account. It behaves as if the license wasn't active. The Symptoms: -Portal status: Active (Account Holder/Admin), -Xcode Settings: When I navigate to Settings > Accounts and select my team, there is a Red X displayed next to "Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles.", Xcode suggests there is an issue accessing these resources and I cannot sign any binaries. Confirmed the membership is active in the web portal. Everything seems configured correctly on the web side, but the account simply doesn't work locally in Xcode. Has anyone faced this specific "Red X" issue despite a valid membership? Is there a specific cache I need to clear or a way to force Xcode to re-fetch the correct status? Any advice on how to resolve this loop would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! :)

SPM Failed to verified fingerprint for SSH url since Tahoe 26.3
Hi there, I recently updated to the latest version of macOS Tahoe 26.3. Since then, Xcode is not able to resolve my Swift Package dependencies anymore. We use SSH for all our Github hosted packages. When package resolution is running, we randomly have Failed to verify SSH fingerprint on some remote package. Nothing has changed and it worked perfectly with Tahoe 26.2. The SSH have been reconfigured and known hosts have been verified. Is something changed between those 2 versions or is it a bug ?

Xcode Simulator error
Following is an error I encounter when trying to run a foundation model function in simulator. Error Domain=FoundationModels.LanguageModelSession.GenerationError Code=-1 "(null)" UserInfo={NSMultipleUnderlyingErrorsKey=( "Error Domain=ModelManagerServices.ModelManagerError Code=1026 "(null)" UserInfo={NSMultipleUnderlyingErrorsKey=(\n)}" )} Its a swift playground I'm building in xcode and works fine in the preview and on a real device too but since it's my submission for the swift student challenge I need it to run on the simulator. I have updated my macOS to latest version of Tahoe(26.3) and Xcode is also on latest version. The simulator I run the playground is also on ios and iPadOS 26. I have set my region to US and have turned on Apple Intelligence on my mac too. Any suggestions on how to fix the issue?👾

Build/Archive failure in Xcode 16.2 after updating macOS to 26.2
We are encountering a build and archive failure in Xcode after updating our development machine to macOS 26.2. Environment: macOS: 26.2 Xcode: 16.2 iOS Deployment Target / Runtime: iOS 18.5 App Type: Production iOS app (App Store distribution) Issue: Before updating macOS, the project built and archived successfully. After the macOS 26.2 update, archiving fails consistently, even though no major changes were made to the project code or configuration. Certificates, provisioning profiles, and signing settings are correctly configured. The issue appears to be related to the macOS/Xcode environment rather than application logic. Steps to Reproduce: Open the existing iOS project in Xcode 16.2. Select the App Store distribution scheme. Attempt to Archive the project. Archive/build fails. Expected Result: Successful archive allowing upload to App Store Connect. Actual Result: Archive fails after macOS 26.2 update. Additional Info: This post is linked to Apple Developer Technical Support Case-ID: 18413014.

Q&A Summary for Code-along: Experiment with coding intelligence in Xcode 26
We received many great questions from the community during Code-along: Experiment with coding intelligence in Xcode 26. Here are the highlights from the questions submitted by the audience during the event. What models does coding intelligence features support In Xcode? Xcode integrates directly with ChatGPT and Claude user accounts. You can also configure Xcode to integrate any model provider that supports the Chat Completions API, such as models that you access with an API key. You can also download and run a local model on a Mac with Apple silicon. Setting up coding intelligence provides all of the information you need to get started with Xcode’s direct integration with ChatGPT and Claude, as well as how to set up Xcode to access other providers. Does Coding Intelligence have access to Apple API and developer documentation? How does it stay up to date with the latest SwiftUI API? Coding agents are great because they talk to a model, generate code and fix errors, but they also have access to tools, which make a significant difference in their capabilities. Xcode provides tools for the agent to use, including the ability to search Apple’s documentation and, code snippets. As an example, you can ask for a new API that was released in iOS, and if the model doesn't have this knowledge, the agent will call the tool to search for the documentation and bring that context into the conversation. As an organization, we do not have permission to share our codebase with any AI model due to security reasons. If we enable coding intelligence and give it access to our codebase, will the code be shared with Apple? Will OpenAI or Anthropic have access to my entire project? Privacy is fundamental to our design. When you connect an AI subscription account (like an account with OpenAI or Anthropic), the connection is only between you and that service. Apple does not act as an intermediary, and never sees the code sent to these services. Because this interaction happens directly between the you and your provider, the security and privacy of your code is determined entirely by your existing agreement with your provider. What exactly does the agent have access to? Only the files in the scope of the project? By default, the agent works in the directory of your project, and can access all files in that directory. This includes code file, assets, and your Xcode project configuration file. Does coding intelligence remember previous conversations? Each time you start a new conversation window, it resets the context of the conversation, but you can always go back to a previous conversation you had and continue and iterate on a previous idea. If a result contains errors or did not go in a direction you are happy with, you can use the history to go back to any point in time. Writing code with intelligence in Xcode goes into detail on how you can use these features. For command-line tools (Claude Code, OpenAI Codex), I can create guidelines as Markdown with rules or project descriptions. Does Xcode Agentic Coding take these into account, or should I define them differently? You can add skills that you’ve created, hints about Xcode and your project to configuration files, and other files supporting your use of coding intelligence such as AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md files, to the respective Codex and Claude Agent directories that Xcode uses exclusively: ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/CodingAssistant/codex ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/CodingAssistant/ClaudeAgentConfig For more information on configuring agentic coding tools that run inside Xcode, see Customize the Codex and Claude Agent environments. How do you add a Model Context Protocol server for the Xcode agent to be able to access? You can add additional Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers in Xcode with product-specific configuration files so the agents can use those MCP servers from within Xcode. Locate the files needed to configure those additional MCP servers in the same directory where you set other customizations for Codex or Claude Agent, listed above.

AVP, Developer Strap v2, Ethernet connection and Xcode
Hi, I wonder if there's something that can be configured to force Xcode (and preferably MVD too) to use Ethernet connection between Mac Mini and Apple Vision Pro (over a USB hub, not a direct USB connection)? If I connect AVP to Mac directly via USB, the bridge gets created and both MVD and Xcode default to it, which is great because of higher speed and lower latency. My problem is that I work with external camera, so I can have either the camera, or the Mac connection, but not both. I tried to solve that by plugging in a small active USB hub, so the strap and camera are connected to it, plus it has Ethernet adapter, which is plugged into Mac port. I tried with internet sharing on Mac - AVP has internet access, I can ping AVP from Mac, but Xcode and MVD still use wifi. I tried to manually configure bridge without internet sharing - same effect. I tried to make the bridge highest priority connection - nothing changed. I tried to force routing to AVP IP over the bridge - nothing (and it seems that my routing entry went missing after some time and was replaced by "use wifi interface"). So - is there something more I can do to make at least Xcode go over the cable? Debugging over wifi often takes forever.

Place an app on a family device
I had a free developer account and now have a paid account. I can now install unlimited number of apps on my personal devices. I want to install more than 3 apps on a device of a family member. The device of this member has been registered under Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles. When I try to install apps with xCode on this family device I still get the message that I reached the limit of 3 apps (free account). By signing & capabilities I use the paid account as team. I have deleted all the apps on that device where installed with the free account, restarted the device and restarted xcode but the problem still exists.

Xcode 26 Butchers Productivity by Making Global the State of Navigators Pane
Here's the text of FB22008758 I've just submitted: Xcode 26 changed the behavior of the Navigators pane (which hopefully is a bug and not an intended behavior). in Xcode 26, if I close (or open) the Navigators pane in a window tab, it closes (or opens) the Navigators pane in ALL window tabs. This is insanely horrible, unproductive, time-wasting behavior that breaks workflows that has been established for many years (I've been using Xcode since 2006). By way of example: In a window tab that contains a .xib, I prefer the Navigators pane to be closed. While in all other window tabs (that contain code files and other items), I want the Navigators pane to be always displayed.

Please restore the normal, pre-26 behavior of the Navigators pane. That is, the Navigators pane should remain open or closed as PER INDIVIDUAL WINDOW TAB, not globally.

Your request couldn't be completed
Steps to reproduce: Open Xcode 26.3 → Settings → Intelligence → Claude sign-in Click the sign-in button — spinner begins, never completes An email the arrives with a magic link. The magic link opened a browser page which displayed a 6-digit verification code with instructions reading "enter this verification code where you first tried to sign in" — i.e. back in Xcode. However, Xcode was showing only an endless spinner with no code entry field anywhere in the UI. This is the core bug. I did since manage to complete authentication sign-in through a second browser verification field that eventually appeared after about 10 minutes and did get signed in, but the Claude Intelligence agent still returns "Your request could not be completed" even after successful sign-in and a full Xcode restart. Prior to this bug starting at 10 am on February 19 I had been using the intelligence agent successfully for about a week. Anthropic did have some sort of event on their system around February 18/19 so maybe this has been a result of that. I have notified Anthropic support and Apple Feedback Assistant.

Xcode Simulator error
Following is an error I encounter when trying to run a foundation model function in simulator. Error Domain=FoundationModels.LanguageModelSession.GenerationError Code=-1 "(null)" UserInfo={NSMultipleUnderlyingErrorsKey=( "Error Domain=ModelManagerServices.ModelManagerError Code=1026 "(null)" UserInfo={NSMultipleUnderlyingErrorsKey=(\n)}" )} Its a swift playground I'm building in xcode and works fine in the preview and on a real device too but since it's my submission for the swift student challenge I need it to run on the simulator. I have updated my macOS to latest version of Tahoe(26.3) and Xcode is also on latest version. The simulator I run the playground is also on ios and iPadOS 26. I have set my region to US and have turned on Apple Intelligence on my mac too. Any suggestions on how to fix the issue?👾

Build/Archive failure in Xcode 16.2 after updating macOS to 26.2
We are encountering a build and archive failure in Xcode after updating our development machine to macOS 26.2. Environment: macOS: 26.2 Xcode: 16.2 iOS Deployment Target / Runtime: iOS 18.5 App Type: Production iOS app (App Store distribution) Issue: Before updating macOS, the project built and archived successfully. After the macOS 26.2 update, archiving fails consistently, even though no major changes were made to the project code or configuration. Certificates, provisioning profiles, and signing settings are correctly configured. The issue appears to be related to the macOS/Xcode environment rather than application logic. Steps to Reproduce: Open the existing iOS project in Xcode 16.2. Select the App Store distribution scheme. Attempt to Archive the project. Archive/build fails. Expected Result: Successful archive allowing upload to App Store Connect. Actual Result: Archive fails after macOS 26.2 update. Additional Info: This post is linked to Apple Developer Technical Support Case-ID: 18413014.

Q&A Summary for Code-along: Experiment with coding intelligence in Xcode 26
We received many great questions from the community during Code-along: Experiment with coding intelligence in Xcode 26. Here are the highlights from the questions submitted by the audience during the event. What models does coding intelligence features support In Xcode? Xcode integrates directly with ChatGPT and Claude user accounts. You can also configure Xcode to integrate any model provider that supports the Chat Completions API, such as models that you access with an API key. You can also download and run a local model on a Mac with Apple silicon. Setting up coding intelligence provides all of the information you need to get started with Xcode’s direct integration with ChatGPT and Claude, as well as how to set up Xcode to access other providers. Does Coding Intelligence have access to Apple API and developer documentation? How does it stay up to date with the latest SwiftUI API? Coding agents are great because they talk to a model, generate code and fix errors, but they also have access to tools, which make a significant difference in their capabilities. Xcode provides tools for the agent to use, including the ability to search Apple’s documentation and, code snippets. As an example, you can ask for a new API that was released in iOS, and if the model doesn't have this knowledge, the agent will call the tool to search for the documentation and bring that context into the conversation. As an organization, we do not have permission to share our codebase with any AI model due to security reasons. If we enable coding intelligence and give it access to our codebase, will the code be shared with Apple? Will OpenAI or Anthropic have access to my entire project? Privacy is fundamental to our design. When you connect an AI subscription account (like an account with OpenAI or Anthropic), the connection is only between you and that service. Apple does not act as an intermediary, and never sees the code sent to these services. Because this interaction happens directly between the you and your provider, the security and privacy of your code is determined entirely by your existing agreement with your provider. What exactly does the agent have access to? Only the files in the scope of the project? By default, the agent works in the directory of your project, and can access all files in that directory. This includes code file, assets, and your Xcode project configuration file. Does coding intelligence remember previous conversations? Each time you start a new conversation window, it resets the context of the conversation, but you can always go back to a previous conversation you had and continue and iterate on a previous idea. If a result contains errors or did not go in a direction you are happy with, you can use the history to go back to any point in time. Writing code with intelligence in Xcode goes into detail on how you can use these features. For command-line tools (Claude Code, OpenAI Codex), I can create guidelines as Markdown with rules or project descriptions. Does Xcode Agentic Coding take these into account, or should I define them differently? You can add skills that you’ve created, hints about Xcode and your project to configuration files, and other files supporting your use of coding intelligence such as AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md files, to the respective Codex and Claude Agent directories that Xcode uses exclusively: ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/CodingAssistant/codex ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/CodingAssistant/ClaudeAgentConfig For more information on configuring agentic coding tools that run inside Xcode, see Customize the Codex and Claude Agent environments. How do you add a Model Context Protocol server for the Xcode agent to be able to access? You can add additional Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers in Xcode with product-specific configuration files so the agents can use those MCP servers from within Xcode. Locate the files needed to configure those additional MCP servers in the same directory where you set other customizations for Codex or Claude Agent, listed above.

AVP, Developer Strap v2, Ethernet connection and Xcode
Hi, I wonder if there's something that can be configured to force Xcode (and preferably MVD too) to use Ethernet connection between Mac Mini and Apple Vision Pro (over a USB hub, not a direct USB connection)? If I connect AVP to Mac directly via USB, the bridge gets created and both MVD and Xcode default to it, which is great because of higher speed and lower latency. My problem is that I work with external camera, so I can have either the camera, or the Mac connection, but not both. I tried to solve that by plugging in a small active USB hub, so the strap and camera are connected to it, plus it has Ethernet adapter, which is plugged into Mac port. I tried with internet sharing on Mac - AVP has internet access, I can ping AVP from Mac, but Xcode and MVD still use wifi. I tried to manually configure bridge without internet sharing - same effect. I tried to make the bridge highest priority connection - nothing changed. I tried to force routing to AVP IP over the bridge - nothing (and it seems that my routing entry went missing after some time and was replaced by "use wifi interface"). So - is there something more I can do to make at least Xcode go over the cable? Debugging over wifi often takes forever.

Place an app on a family device
I had a free developer account and now have a paid account. I can now install unlimited number of apps on my personal devices. I want to install more than 3 apps on a device of a family member. The device of this member has been registered under Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles. When I try to install apps with xCode on this family device I still get the message that I reached the limit of 3 apps (free account). By signing & capabilities I use the paid account as team. I have deleted all the apps on that device where installed with the free account, restarted the device and restarted xcode but the problem still exists.
