SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Developers targeting macOS 26 (Tahoe) often struggle to find accurate, up-to-date guidance on new platform APIs like Apple Intelligence, MLX, and Continuity, and risk using deprecated approaches or hallucinated APIs. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Tahoe Feature Guidance: Covers redesigned Spotlight integration, Phone app links, Control Center widgets, custom folder icons, and high-priority reminders with Swift code examples. - Apple Intelligence & MLX: Explains FoundationModels availability handling, on-device inference, and MLX framework usage with M5 neural accelerator optimization. - Continuity Integration: Provides patterns for Universal Clipboard, Handoff via NSUserActivity, and AirDrop sharing. - Use Case: When adding Spotlight quick actions to a macOS app, the Skill supplies the correct NSUserActivity and CoreSpotlight indexing code with handling for user selection. ## Quick Start Ask how to implement a macOS 26 Tahoe feature such as Spotlight quick actions or FoundationModels on-device inference in your Swift app.

Frequently Asked Questions about macos-tahoe-apis

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I use Apple Intelligence FoundationModels on macOS 26?▼

Import FoundationModels and use SystemLanguageModel.default with LanguageModelSession for on-device inference. Always check model.availability first, since Apple silicon is required and users must enable Apple Intelligence in System Settings.

How to add Spotlight quick actions to a macOS app?▼

Create an NSUserActivity with a custom activity type, set isEligibleForSearch and isEligibleForPrediction to true, and call becomeCurrent. Handle the action in application(_:continue:restorationHandler:) and index content with CSSearchableItem for deeper Spotlight integration.

Does the MLX framework support M5 neural accelerators?▼

Yes, MLX can leverage M5 neural accelerators by setting MLX.configuration.useNeuralAccelerators to true and preferredDevice to .neuralEngine. Check MLX.neuralAcceleratorsAvailable to verify hardware capabilities before configuring.

Is there an urgent priority flag for EventKit reminders on macOS 26?▼

No, EventKit has no separate urgent flag. EKReminder.priority uses the standard 1-9 scale where 1 is highest, and Reminders surfaces priority 1 as a high-priority item.

Can Intel Macs run Apple Intelligence features?▼

No, Intel Macs are not eligible for Apple Intelligence. The availability check returns .unavailable(.deviceNotEligible) on Intel hardware, so apps should present an unsupported UI state in that case.
