Any way to turn off delimiter auto-insertion?
In a recent Xcode update (maybe 26.5, maybe all 26 versions), Xcode started inserting the closing quote, parenthesis, or bracket. It happens like this. I type, say, an opening double quote ("). Then as soon as I type another character, it adds another double quote just ahead of the insertion point. Now, I have everything in the Settings->Editing->Completion section turned off. I also have virtually everything in the Indentation section turned off. Is this just a bug? I've reported it (FB22693037). But I'm surprised it wasn't caught by internal testing. I can't express how much I hate this behavior.

"Unable to find module dependency" with custom PRODUCT_MODULE_NAME
Hi! Here is a brief introduction at first. I am developing a framework and our project has following structure: All frameworks are static ones. PublicAPI framework contains the only declarations that are visible to users, while ModuleX frameworks are internal modules. During build process we archive all targets and libtool all internal module binaries into PublicAPI one. This way we distribute our framework as a single xcframework package and hide all internal modules from users. Here is the problem part. All these frameworks exist in separate projects that have single static library target. I want to add new targets with different settings, say SWIFT_ACTIVE_COMPILATION_CONDITIONS or else. So project would look like this Also I would like both regular and extended targets to build frameworks with same module name, so that neither users (that use PublicAPI framework) nor I would have to change imports in my code. My idea was to set PRODUCT_MODULE_NAME in extended targets to the same value as in regular ones. But when I build PublicAPIExtended target I get an error Unable to find module dependency 'Module1' although derived data contains Module1Extended.framework with Module1 module inside. What did I do wrong? Is it possible to build project like this at all? And another thing - I also tried to build a scheme containing both PublicAPI and PublicAPIExtended targets and got different error even prior to build: error: Multiple commands produce '<ExtractAppIntentsMetadata Path(_str: "/Users/antonprotko/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/test-acncglphufkosyhjzbwrbzalsnlh/Build/Products/Debug") bar/Metadata.appintents>' note: Target 'bar copy' (project 'bar'): ExtractAppIntentsMetadata note: Target 'bar' (project 'bar'): ExtractAppIntentsMetadata Can I fix it somehow? Here is example project with similar targets - foo/foo_copy and bar/bar_copy share the same sources with different compilation conditions. bar targets depend on foo targets and building bar_copy fails with Unable to find module dependency: 'foo' https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Cj5cIw8U0LJ5Xt9ZnhbKIo240kbrizLE/view?usp=sharing

ChatGPT in Xcode 26 not recognizing Plus subscription
Hi all, Has anyone else run into this issue in Xcode 26? I’m logged into my paid ChatGPT Plus account, but the Xcode integration doesn’t seem to recognize the subscription. After a short period of use, I get the following error: “Over daily limit. ChatGPT in Xcode will be unavailable for up to 24 hours. For higher limits, sign in with a paid ChatGPT account.” Since I’m already signed in with a paid account, this looks like either a bug or a limitation specific to Xcode. Is this expected behavior, or has anyone found a workaround to make Xcode properly recognize Plus accounts? Thanks in advance for any guidance.

Xcode 26 is insanely slow
Hey there Just updated to Xcode 26 on mac OS Sequoia (MBP M1 Max 32GB, 2021, so you know, still pretty decent and capable). Xcode is super slow on building, but also on editing. There is a lag between what I type and what is displayed. Am I the only one experiencing this? Is there something I should look into?

"Clean Build Folder…" vs "Clean Build Folder Immediately"?
Xcode 26 (and previous versions) have these options: "Clean Build Folder…" vs "Clean Build Folder Immediately" (if you hold the option key). I can't tell how they're different. The ellipsis traditionally means you're going to get a dialog you have to address before the command will execute, but that doesn’t happen. Both seem to just delete files in the build folder.

Drag on a Canvas with XCUICoordinate.press(...)
I am trying to create a test case in XCTest using the UI Test target. I have a use case where I use a SwiftUI Canvas to draw a network graph; and the user can drag the graph on the Canvas. After the drag, the user may click on a node. The application presents a popup with the information about the network node clicked. SwiftUI provides the information required for the application to translate the location of the tap into the original location prior to the drag; and so the logic behind the popup can determine which node the network graph was tapped by the user. It appears that the distance of the drag operation performed does not match distance that the image actually moved. The drag distance is always larger than the actual distance dragged. I can observe this during the test execution. The arrow starts at the correct spot but then goes further than the object being dragged. I also observe this when I am driving the application. Is there some standard and supported way to determine the distance that the image on the screen was moved given a specific distance of the "thenDragTo:" coordinate?

After the last update, the Undo button is not appearing in the chat screen.
I enter the following example code into the chat screen, the code is applied, but the Undo button does not appear. The Undo button is also grayed out in the Edit menu. I don't know if this is due to the update or a settings issue, as this is my first time using Xcode. Before the update, there were no problems; the Undo button would appear right next to the chat screen after the code was applied, but now it's gone. Can you help me with this? Edit only: MetalPortfolio/MetalPortfolio/Models/Transaction.swift Goal: Make Transaction decoding backward-compatible so older saved transactions do not fail to load when newer fields are missing. Critical rules: - Do not edit any other file. - Do not change Transaction stored property names. - Do not change encoding format. - Do not change UI. - Do not change storage/export/import logic yet. - Do not change calculations. - Keep existing behavior for valid current JSON. Implementation: In Transaction.init(from:), change only optional/backward-compatible decoding where safe. Required: - fee should decode with default 0 if missing: fee = try container.decodeIfPresent(Double.self, forKey: .fee) ?? 0 Optional if consistent with existing defaults: - unit can keep decodeIfPresent fallback. - currency can keep decodeIfPresent fallback. Do not make core required fields optional: - id - type - asset - quantity - price - date Return only: - which file changed - exact decoding behavior changed

Xcode now hangs; SDKs are "status unavailable"
My development work is paused as Xcode is now non-functional on my Macs. Loading any project into Xcode soon leads to a hang and Force Quit. The SDKs are listed as "status unavailable". No Simulators are available. I've tried previous versions of Xcode; removing everything and re-installing; installation from the Store and direct from the Apple Developer site. I've created a Feedback issue. This happens on both of my Mac minis. I'm running Tahoe 26.4 (25E246) on both.

CoreML fails to decrypt a model
We've 10 CoreML models in our app, each encrypted with a separate key generated in XCode. After opening and closing the app 6-7 times, the app crashes at model initialization with error: 2021-04-21 13:52:47.711729+0300 MyApp[95443:7341643] Fatal error: 'try!' expression unexpectedly raised an error: Error Domain=com.apple.CoreML Code=9 "Failed to generate key request for 08494FB2-B070-440F-A8A5-CBD0823A258E with error: -42905" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Failed to generate key request for 08494FB2-B070-440F-A8A5-CBD0823A258E with error: -42905}: file MyApp/Model.swift, line 43 Looks like iPhone is blocking the app for suspicious behavior and the app fails to decrypt the model. We noticed that after ~10 hours the app is unlocked, it successfully decrypts and initializes the model. Opening and closing the app many times in a short period of time is indeed unnatural, but the most important question is how to avoid blocking? Would Apple block the app if a user opens and closes it 10 times during a day? How does the number of models in the app affect probability that the app will be blocked? Thanks!

Xcode 26.3 Claude Agent — 401 Invalid Bearer Token on Intel Mac (FB22141224)
I've been investigating a persistent 401 Invalid Bearer Token error with Claude Agent in Xcode 26.3 on an Intel Core i9 Mac and wanted to share my findings here in case others are affected. ENVIRONMENT Hardware: Intel Core i9 (x86_64) Xcode: 26.3 (17C529) macOS: 26.3 (25D125) THE ISSUE Claude Agent fails with "Failed to authenticate. API Error: 401 - Invalid bearer token" on every prompt, despite the account showing as Signed In under Settings → Intelligence. The error persists after signing out and back in, and the token is confirmed valid and unexpired in Keychain. WHAT WORKS Claude Code in Terminal works perfectly on the same machine with the same credentials The basic Claude Sonnet 4.5 coding assistant in Xcode works fine Only Claude Agent is affected ROOT CAUSE HYPOTHESIS Xcode appears to be installing an ARM64 Claude binary on Intel Macs silently, with no warning or fallback. This binary likely fails to execute on x86_64 hardware and that failure is being misreported upstream as a 401 authentication error — which is why the error has nothing to do with the actual credentials. APPLE'S RESPONSE Feedback report FB22141224 was closed as 'Works as currently designed' with the explanation that Claude Agent requires the Neural Engine found on Apple Silicon. However, Claude Agent calls Anthropic's remote API over the network and performs no on-device AI processing — the Neural Engine is not involved. The fact that Claude Code works fine on this same Intel Mac with the same credentials demonstrates this clearly. WORKAROUND Using an Anthropic API key instead of OAuth resolves the issue but requires additional paid billing outside of an existing Claude.ai subscription. Has anyone else experienced this on either Intel or Apple Silicon? I'd be particularly interested to hear if Apple Silicon users are also affected, as the Developer Forums suggest this may not be limited to Intel Macs (thread/816369). Any input from Apple DTS engineers would be greatly appreciated.

Unable to use codex agent in xcode
Whilst using codex, I got an error "The data couldn’t be read because it isn’t in the correct format." I determined that I was no longer signed in. I went through the OAUTH chain opening a web browser and going through the login. However every time I do it, the account still shows "Not signed In" I am on 26.5. I also removed the codex from components and redownloaded it. That made no difference. Any one else having these issues? Claude is working.

Xcode: Error downloading App Store Connect crash reports
Hello, I’m encountering an issue retrieving crash reports from the AppStore Connect using Xcode 26.4.1 (17E202). I’m signed in with multiple Apple IDs, including the one required to fetch crashes. When I select the destination application and attempt to download crashes in Organizer, a small warning icon appears in the top right corner. Clicking on it displays the following error: "{AppleID email}" failed with error: There was a failure decoding response: (HTTP 500, 20364 bytes) The data couldn’t be read because it isn’t in the correct format.. I already tried to remove my account and sign in again multiple times and also restarted Xcode but nothing seems to work. I wonder whether this is some new bug introduced in the latest Xcode version or rather local issue on my machine. Any help appreciated.

Can DEVELOPER_DIR or xcode-select support Command Line Tools at custom paths?
I'm trying to manage multiple Command Line Tools versions side-by-side (e.g., 16.2 and 26.2). I renamed the CLT directory to /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools-26.2.0 and set: xcode-select -s /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools-26.2.0 or DEVELOPER_DIR=/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools-26.2.0 Both result in: c++: error: unable to find Xcode installation from active developer path "/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools-26.2.0" It appears CLT only works at the fixed path /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools, unlike Xcode which can be at any location. Is this by design? Is there a supported way to use multiple CLT versions in parallel, similar to how multiple Xcode versions can coexist?

Store Kit 2 iOS system purchase confirmation dialog not consistent.
I'm running into an issue where it appears the product transaction is being cached and not showing a new iOS system popup dialog to confirm the purchase. This is affecting testing, and I need a solution to have iOS issue a new purchase transaction every time. Here's what happens, I call the following which always succeeds. try await product.purchase(options: [.appAccountToken(appToken)]) I'm signed into a developer sandbox account with a resubscribe every 5 minutes. After cancelling a subscription, I attempt to resubscribe using the same code as above. Frequently, the code executes without iOS showing the popup system dialog to confirm the purchaser. After waiting a period of time, iOS then resets itself and allows me to purchase again. What I want is an option the forces the iOS system confirm purchase dialog to show up every time the code executes. How do I fix this? iOs 26.4.1, iPhone 17 Pro.

XCode Quick Help panel
I'm a big fan of keeping documentation in the code, so it appears at the point of use. Obviously, DocC and the Quick Help panel are a pretty important part of that strategy. Unfortunately, it only works randomly, so even if I've just build documentation (which should not even matter, the doc is just a cmd+click away), Quick Help stays blank, often even on system items like Label. It seems totally accidental, which makes it hard to make to reproduce. Sometimes an Xcode restart helps, sometimes not. Sometimes changing the editor display helps, sometimes not. Any tips on that?

What I want is an option the forces the iOS system confirm purchase dialog to show up every time the code executes. How do I fix this? iOs 26.4.1, iPhone 17 Pro.

XCode Quick Help panel
I'm a big fan of keeping documentation in the code, so it appears at the point of use. Obviously, DocC and the Quick Help panel are a pretty important part of that strategy. Unfortunately, it only works randomly, so even if I've just build documentation (which should not even matter, the doc is just a cmd+click away), Quick Help stays blank, often even on system items like Label. It seems totally accidental, which makes it hard to make to reproduce. Sometimes an Xcode restart helps, sometimes not. Sometimes changing the editor display helps, sometimes not. Any tips on that?
