# cmux Dev Workflow ## Initial setup `./scripts/setup.sh` initializes submodules, builds GhosttyKit, and installs the pbxproj normalization pre-commit hook. ## Tagged local dev Build the Debug app after every code change: ```bash ./scripts/reload.sh --tag <short-tag> ``` It builds without launching; pass `--launch` only when you need the app open. Never run bare `xcodebuild` or open an untagged `cmux DEV.app`: untagged builds share the default debug socket and bundle ID with other agents, causing conflicts and stealing focus. For CLI or socket dogfood against a tagged Debug app: ```bash CMUX_TAG=<tag> scripts/cmux-debug-cli.sh list-workspaces ``` Do not use `/tmp/cmux-cli` for tagged dogfood; that symlink points at the most recently reloaded build. See [references/tagged-builds.md](references/tagged-builds.md). ## Xcode toolchain The team is pinned to Xcode 26.x. `.xcode-version` is the single source of truth for the major; `cmux.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj` carries `objectVersion = 60`, what Xcode 26 writes by default. (`objectVersion = 77` is reserved for synchronized folder groups, which cmux does not use.) Intel Macs on macOS 14 with Xcode 16.2 (Swift 6.0.3) can still build the macOS app and run tagged `reload.sh` dev builds as a best-effort pathway. Keep app-linked Swift within Swift 6.0 syntax: no trailing commas in parameter or argument lists (SE-0439), no `nonisolated` on type declarations (SE-0449), and the `#if compiler(>=6.2)` / `#else @Sendable` split fo
