AI will never understand when something deserves to be wrapped in DispatchQueue.main.async { }

Introducing Rork Max Publishing Rork Max can now fill your entire App Store page without you ever touching it. It fills in all the fields, generates beautiful icons & screenshots, makes a mock review so you don't get rejected, and submits for you. Yes, iPad screenshots too.

@rork How on earth did you guys pull this off?

@GeoffreyMintz Thank you man! I really appreciate that!!

@kyle_fowler2 That’s scary amazing. BTW, Loved your interview

Alright apparently 8 hours with codex was enough to do it. Dev in 2026 is weird as hell. I really do miss coding on the micro level, but, god damn, being able to essential say, “make this but android” and watching codex cook for an hour is nice. And then just sitting there and critiquing the mistakes to get the rest of the way there. Honestly, this should’ve been a 4 hour project, but I was tired and spent the first 4 hours pursuing Google authentication in a way that retrospectively was never going to work. Anyways, just felt I had to write somewhere about how insane it is that this is possible now.

@brian_lovin This is gold. Self-verification has to be one of the biggest unlocks

The current tactics for using AI coding agents well are roughly: 1. Give agents tools to self-verify • MCP servers (agent-browser, playwright) • tests • tsc, linters 2. Teach agents to build their own verification tools Agents can write their own scripts, skills, subagents, eval frameworks, plans, and success criteria. If you don't know what to ask, ask the agent: "what tools will you need to know you've done a good job?" 3. Point the agent back at itself • Turn complex workflows into reusable skills/subagents — after finishing a long session, ask the agent if there's anything you could extract into reusable skills. • Ask the agent to rewrite your prompts to be more clear • Use multiple models to evaluate each other (especially useful for evaluating plans + code review before a PR) • If a skill doesn't quite work, finish the task anyway, then feed the conversation back so it can improve the skill's instructions • If the agent asks you to do something manually, ask yourself: how do I teach the agent to answer this question on its own? • You can teach the agent to self-improve by writing meta-skills that update other skills/rules based on what worked (or didn't) as you close PRs. 4. Give better context • Attach screenshots • Link to docs/blog posts • Tell the agent to read source code for OSS dependencies • Link to examples of high-quality outcomes it should emulate And if you don't know how to do anything above—ask the agent.

@colderoshay @elirousso @Ibelick @vercel Is there anything like this for iOS / SwiftUI dev?

the holy trinity of agentic UI: - rams.ai from @elirousso - ui-skills.com from @Ibelick - vercel.com/design/guideli… from @vercel

@cormachayden_ Is this for oasis?

first $30k day

@samhbarton @zachtdavidson @kepano Hit me up as a tester as well!

@zachtdavidson @kepano I’ve got an extension I built that does this! Will share soon

I posted this thinking I'd get a handful of answers, but it turned into a massive thread with hundreds of thoughtful ideas it feels like a turning point of some kind?

@camsoft2000 How do build times compare with the MCP vs with Xcode?

Coming soon: XcodeBuildMCP debugging a run-time crash with the new LLDB capability. Coding agent can inspect an application at run-time, add/remove breakpoints, get stacktraces, and issue lldb commands just like a human developer would.

@peteralevin @jose_goncalves_ @alexlecointe God damn. I have no idea if that makes business sense, but it’s magical. I love it so much. The haptics are a wonderful touch too

@jose_goncalves_ @alexlecointe We’ve been trying a cinematic opener with INCOHEARENT! :)

Luma’s app open animation

@antons This is so beautiful

I’ve been spending a lot of time in Ghostty, and I wanted a nicer way to build and run our Xcode projects. So I’ve made a Codex-inspired TUI (fully vibe-coded with Codex, of course).

It begins

Anyone have bets on whether I can actually make Scanémon’s android app in a weekend?

Having cursor write scripts to analyze data is my new superpower

Anyone know any great SwiftUI freelancers?

@sir4K_zen @Superwall @JosephKChoi Switching to a hard paywall with a free trial instead of a “First 5 scans are free” model. It basically doubled are revenue instantly

@kyle_fowler2 @Superwall @JosephKChoi Nice breakdown. What was the most impactful move in 2025 for you?

I was on the @Superwall Podcast with @JosephKChoi and I explained everything I’ve done to build and market an app in 2025! P.S. Ignore the no-code title, I’m a developer through and through ;) Check it out here:
