What if Apple shipped a UI framework where the LLM owns the text (better at it than us) and humans edit visually?

Like SwiftUI + previews — but the textual layer is LLM-first. The next SwiftUI moment.

My agents barely need Xcode's UI – they need its services.

A menu-bar daemon: every UI-only operation as MCP (preview targets, adding targets, settings) + build queueing and nightly sim cleanup.

Local LLMs are powerful now. Problem: each app bundles its own, and installing them is too hard for users.

Make it system-level: one place to install models, apps declare requirements, the system picks per device.

UI tests are too brittle — they break on every layout tweak.

What could flip this: an LLM following plain-English goals, adapting to renames, failing only when unintuitive.

Today, 100% of my agent UI verification goes through screenshots or the accessibility tree. Both wrong tools.

What apps need: a structured view tree — frames, gestures, async hooks — as data.

[Cihat Gündüz @Jeehut]

Lesson from using AI agents daily: if the same session evaluates its own work, it will rarely catch real issues. Anthropic research confirmed.

Fix: a separate session for evaluation!
I built a Claude Code plugin for this: 👇

My 4th Claude Code plugin is out: TandemKit 🤝

Approve a spec, walk away. Claude & Codex plan, build, and verify together. You're only involved at two points: approving the plan and reviewing the result.

@Telemetry_Deck This is super cool! A GitHub repo that packages this as a SKILL.md file would make this easier to adopt.

If you've run Claude and Codex in parallel, you know the pain: copy, paste, wait, copy back, paste again. I did that for months — then Anthropic's Harness research motivated me to turn it into a plugin. Full story: 👇

ReviewKit is my favorite package to integrate in apps I build, either for myself or for a client. What's neat about it? Easily capturing the right time to ask users to rate the app. I highly recommend check it out:

[Cihat Gündüz @Jeehut]

I kept losing bug reports in emails and ideas in todo apps. Now I dump them straight into PlanKit — markdown files in my repo that Claude Code can actually read and act on.

I shared my solution as a plugin, give it a try 👉 https://t.co/6L4NZ37cca

#ClaudeCode #IndieDev #iOSDev

[Cihat Gündüz @Jeehut]

Built a lightweight planning plugin for Claude Code. Ideas → Roadmap → Steps → Done — all markdown files in your repo. No external tools, project-specific.

Just released my second Claude Code plugin. If you run long sessions like me, Recall is a better alternative to the built-in compaction — it preserves your full conversation instead of a lossy summary.

Give it a try 👉 https://t.co/SwXEocEFFo

[Cihat Gündüz @Jeehut]

Scared of Claude Code hitting the context limit? I built a plugin to fix! 💡

Grabs full conversation from transcript. Every message, every decision, no noise. Even better with auto-compact off. Run /recall:session in new chat when 200k full. 👇

Was hesitant to use #OpenClaw, but no longer need to: Anthropic just shipped remote-control to #ClaudeCode! 🚀

Just type /rc (twice), scan QR code and start typing on your phone & seeing how messages get forwarded to my Mac! 👌

(Bug: Need to connect to GitHub on phone first.)

[Cihat Gündüz @Jeehut]

For clarity: The GitHub connection is just needed to get rid of the modal, but as soon as you connect to ANY account, it will disappear and you will get access to your own Mac sessions! 🔒

I think this is just a UI bug, Anthropic needs to add a Dismiss button. 🐞
