Ways I can leverage AI when the user asks Siri, "What does this word mean"
I'm the creator of an app that helps users learn Arabic. Inside of the app users can save words, engage in lessons specific to certain grammar concepts etc. I'm looking for a way for Siri to 'suggest' my app when the user asks to define any Arabic words. There are other questions that I would like for Siri to suggest my app for, but I figure that's a good start. What framework am I looking for here? I think AppItents? I remember I played with it for a bit last year but didn't get far. Any suggestions would be great. Would the new Foundations model be any help here?

Using RAG on local documents from Foundation Model
I am watching a few WWDC sessions on Foundation Model and its usage and it looks pretty cool. I was wondering if it is possible to perform RAG on the user documents on the devices and entuallly on iCloud... Let's say I have a lot of pages documents about me and I want the Foundation model to access those information on the documents to answer questions about me that can be retrieved from the documents. How can this be done ? Thanks

Foundation Model Framework
Greetings! I was trying to get a response from the LanguageModelSession but I just keep getting the following: Error getting response: Model Catalog error: Error Domain=com.apple.UnifiedAssetFramework Code=5000 "There are no underlying assets (neither atomic instance nor asset roots) for consistency token for asset set com.apple.MobileAsset.UAF.FM.Overrides" UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=There are no underlying assets (neither atomic instance nor asset roots) for consistency token for asset set com.apple.MobileAsset.UAF.FM.Overrides} This occurs both in macOS 15.5 running the new Xcode beta with an iOS 26 simulator, and also on a macOS 26 with Xcode beta. The simulators are both Pro iPhone 16s. I was wondering if anyone had any advice?

Foundation Models not working: "Model is unavailable" error on iPad Pro M4
I am excited to try Foundation Models during WWDC, but it doesn't work at all for me. When running on my iPad Pro M4 with iPadOS 26 seed 1, I get the following error even when running the simplest query: let prompt = "How are you?" let stream = session.streamResponse(to: prompt) for try await partial in stream { self.answer = partial self.resultString = partial } In the Xcode console, I see the following error: assetsUnavailable(FoundationModels.LanguageModelSession.GenerationError.Context(debugDescription: "Model is unavailable", underlyingErrors: [])) I have verified that Apple Intelligence is enabled on my iPad. Any tips on how can I get it working? I have also submitted this feedback: FB17896752

Vision Framework - Testing RecognizeDocumentsRequest
How do I test the new RecognizeDocumentRequest API. Reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-GCNsXdKzM I am running Xcode Beta, however I only have one primary device that I cannot install beta software on. Please provide a strategy for testing. Will simulator work? The new capability is critical to my application, just what I need for structuring document scans and extraction. Thank you.

FoundationModels and Core Data
Hi, I have an app that uses Core Data to store user information and display it in various views. I want to know if it's possible to easily integrate this setup with FoundationModels to make it easier for the user to query and manipulate the information, and if so, how would I go about it? Can the model be pointed to the database schema file and the SQLite file sitting in the user's app group container to parse out the information needed? And/or should the NSManagedObjects be made @Generable for better output? Any guidance about this would be useful.

App Shortcuts Limit (10 per app) — Can This Be Increased?
Hi Apple team, When using AppShortcutsProvider, I hit the hard limit: Each app may have at most 10 App Shortcuts. This feels limiting for apps that offer multiple workflows and would benefit from deeper Siri integration. Could this cap be raised — ideally to 30 — to support broader use of AppIntents, enhance Siri automation, and unlock more system-level capabilities? AppShortcuts are a fantastic tool. Increasing the limit would make them even more powerful. Thanks!

Model Guardrails Too Restrictive?
I'm experimenting with using the Foundation Models framework to do news summarization in an RSS app but I'm finding that a lot of articles are getting kicked back with a vague message about guardrails. This seems really common with political news but we're talking mainstream stuff, i.e. Politico, etc. If the models are this restrictive, this will be tough to use. Is this intended? FB17904424

Model Rate Limits?
Trying the Foundation Model framework and when I try to run several sessions in a loop, I'm getting a thrown error that I'm hitting a rate limit. Are these rate limits documented? What's the best practice here? I'm trying to run the models against new content downloaded from a web service where I might get ~200 items in a given download. They're relatively small but there can be that many that want to be processed in a loop.

Does Generable support recursive schemas?
I've run into an issue with a small Foundation Models test with Generable. I'm getting a strange error message with this Generable. I was able to get simpler ones to work. Is this because the Generable is recursive with a property of [HTMLDiv]? The error message is: FoundationModels/SchemaAugmentor.swift:209: Fatal error: 'try!' expression unexpectedly raised an error: FoundationModels.GenerationSchema.SchemaError.undefinedReferences(schema: Optional("SafeResponse<HTMLDiv>"), references: ["HTMLDiv"], context: FoundationModels.GenerationSchema.SchemaError.Context(debugDescription: "Undefined types: [HTMLDiv]", underlyingErrors: [])) The code is: import FoundationModels import Playgrounds @Generable struct HTMLDiv { @Guide(description: "Optional named ID, useful for nicknames") var id: String? = nil @Guide(description: "Optional visible HTML text") var textContent: String? = nil @Guide(description: "Any child elements", .count(0...10)) var children: [HTMLDiv] = [] static var sample: HTMLDiv { HTMLDiv( id: "profileToolbar", children: [ HTMLDiv(textContent: "Log in"), HTMLDiv(textContent: "Sign up"), ] ) } } #Playground { do { let session = LanguageModelSession { "Your job is to generate simple HTML markup" "Here is an example response to the prompt: 'Make a profile toolbar':" HTMLDiv.sample } let response = try await session.respond( to: "Make a sign up form", generating: HTMLDiv.self ) print(response.content) } catch { print(error) } }

BNNS random number generator for Double value types
I generate an array of random floats using the code shown below. However, I would like to do this with Double instead of Float. Are there any BNNS random number generators for double values, something like BNNSRandomFillUniformDouble? If not, is there a way I can convert BNNSNDArrayDescriptor from float to double? import Accelerate let n = 100_000_000 let result = Array<Float>(unsafeUninitializedCapacity: n) { buffer, initCount in var descriptor = BNNSNDArrayDescriptor(data: buffer, shape: .vector(n))! let randomGenerator = BNNSCreateRandomGenerator(BNNSRandomGeneratorMethodAES_CTR, nil) BNNSRandomFillUniformFloat(randomGenerator, &descriptor, 0, 1) initCount = n }

AI-Powered Feed Customization via User-Defined Algorithm
Hey guys 👋 I’ve been thinking about a feature idea for iOS that could totally change the way we interact with apps like Twitter/X. Imagine if we could define our own recommendation algorithm, and have an AI on the iPhone that replaces the suggested tweets in the feed with ones that match our personal interests — based on public tweets, and without hacking anything. Kinda like a personalized "AI skin" over the app that curates content you actually care about. Feels like this would make content way more relevant and less algorithmically manipulative. Would love to know what you all think — and if Apple could pull this off 🔥

Xcode Beta 1 and FoundationsModel access
I downloaded Xcode Beta 1 on my mac (did not upgrade the OS). The target OS level of iOS26 and the device simulator for iOS26 is downloaded and selected as the target. When I try a simple Playground in Xcode ( #Playground ) I get a session error. #Playground { let avail = SystemLanguageModel.default.availability if avail != .available { print("SystemLanguageModel not available") return } let session = LanguageModelSession() do { let response = try await session.respond(to: "Create a recipe for apple pie") } catch { print(error) } } The error I get is: Asset com.apple.gm.safety_deny_input.foundation_models.framework.api not found in Model Catalog Is there a way to test drive the FoundationModel code without upgrading to macos26?
