It's getting harder to find IDEs that properly boycott LLMs.

Ironically, you could probably vibe code your own.

Do you really think so? Have you ever explored the source of something like:

This is great. I've been using Xcode with a separate terminal to run Claude Code, which has been a painful setup.

I use VS Code with Claude Code, then I just use Xcode to build and launch

I’m building my first iOS app ever so I know it has much more to do with me not understanding Xcode but getting builds to succeed after making changes with Claude code has been a nightmare. If you or anyone have any tips, guides, prayers, incantations for how to get changes in one to not clobber the other and leave me in xproj symlink hell I would be so grateful.

To run a model locally, they would need to release the weights to the public and their competitors. Those are flagship models.

They would also need to shrink them way down to even fit. And even then, generating tokens on an apple neural chip would be waaaaaay slower than an HTTP request to a monster GPU in the sky. Local llms in my experience are either painfully dumb or painfully slow.

> In the OpenAI API, “GPT-5” corresponds to the “minimal” reasoning level, and “GPT-5 (Reasoning)” corresponds to the “low” reasoning level. (159135374) It's interesting that the highest level of reasoning that GPT-5 in XCode supports is actually the "low" reasoning level. Wonder why.

Yeah I don't get why they don't support Opus given that you're bringing your own API key.

Good luck getting just scroll bar right with vibe coding. You'll be surprised how much engineering is done to get that part work smoothly.
