Can plug in whatever agent you want
- stale-labs 9mo ago[flagged]
- geooff_ 9mo ago100% I hope they open more of the tooling to MCP, Xcode Instruments with real MCP support would be huge.
- RobMurray 9mo agoJust a good CLI would be even better, usable by humans, CI scripts and agents.
- mrtesthah 9mo agoWas surprised they use MCP for this and not ACP.
- zombot 9mo ago> plug in whatever agent you want Noob question: Does that include local models?
- vaxman 9mo agoOnly theoretically at this point, though they will tend to speak confidently enough about such untested capabilities so as to cause millions in investment losses to others. One would think a hardware manufacturer that's teetering on the abyss would go full out and implement a vLLM interface (maybe a folder of local models that can be downloaded as components in the Xcode-way and also a router too), but their NIH mentality has them tripping over their own Graydey's. There is nothing special about Apple Silicon except the head start they had and that they're squandering.
- drak0n1c 9mo agoUnfortunately the MCP for external agent tools is flawed at the moment, it returns a format differing from its stated schema. So it doesn't work with OpenCode.
- vaxman 9mo agoClassic Apple; cannot possibly be the same developers (not) doing this kind of thing after all these years, so it must be a systemic issue.
- anonutah 9mo agoTook some digging but finally found the docs on setting up MCP for external agents like Codex and Claude Code. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/giving-agentic-coding-tools-access-to-xcode https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/giving-agent...
