Has anyone experimented with integrating AppIntents as a sort of core part of their SwiftUI apps architecture? It seems like it could be an interesting idea at least for manipulating data? AddItemIntent().perform()?

And underneath it’s all AppIntents so any one can develop for it. So its capabilities expand when people make for it.
Not when an AI cobbles up more data.

However, before full migration, I plan to move all data operations to #AppIntents. I played with them for a while, and only now I see that I should have started with them from the beginning. 🙈

Apple should totally ditch the proprietary nature of #appintents and instead each app with intents should expose them through a mini #mcp server. Free all those actions from the confines of Siri and Shortcuts, and let apps freely trigger and combine each others’ actions.

Took me a whole day to add it, but all the errors it's possible for my AppIntents to throw should now have actually-helpful information like this rather than the developer-ese Shortcuts outputs by default from the first post in this thread.

Nerdsniped myself into seeing if I could get shortcuts support in Framous before v1. 😅
Got it working with files pretty quickly, but accepting photos is alluding me. AppIntents are such a mystery box to me sometime 🙃

Interactive Snippets come in two flavors — result and confirmation styles. The difference is subtle.

I added MCP support to some of my Mac apps & consider it an alternative to AppIntents for automation.
In many ways MCP is different from other API models being invoked by natural language rather than programming language.
It is very loose but can still work well.

The lack of the ability to actually factor code with AppIntents goes beyond frustrating. Emasculating even?

This is possible now as I am removing the legacy Intents that read/write from these DBs. The new AppIntents are run in the main app process and widgets use a readonly JSON file that is reactively updated.

Today I’ll be giving the AppIntent framework and shortcut automations another look for a side project I’m working on. I’m trying to build an Intent that conditionally opens the app, which seems possible with SiriKit but I haven’t yet found a way to achieve it with AppIntents. #iosdev

Gosh darn AppIntents. For the life of me, I can’t get EntityStringQuery working in a widget configuration. The UI shows the search box, but it just doesn’t call `entities(matching:)`. Literally already wasted hours on this.

Regarding the OpenAI Operator web issues you mentioned (websites forbidding access), there’s an elephant in the room: Almost every iOS app implements AppIntents, an API for Siri, Shortcuts and… Apple Intelligence.

Creating AppIntents and running into a problem on the watch. Working with the OpenIntent and associated domains, but it is not working on the watch. Maybe it takes longer for the watch to “know” about the associated domains. #appintents

If you want to know how sparse the documentation for AppIntents are, just try asking ChatGPT or Claude to help you out - you'll get hallucinations all day long
I really like the API, once you get the basics in place, but it requires great tooling, and a ton of samples - neither of which exist.

The new app I’m developing I’ve gone heavy on widget support and everything within my data layer is managed through AppIntents.
Honestly it’s a game changer in architecture. I think @FloWritesCode recommends a similar pattern.

So… I’ve just learned that most of my adoration for #AppIntents was premature. 😆 I discovered why they didn’t work from actionable notifications, by having the same issue when I tried to use them in .onMove. 😬

Works normally. Except when running in within AppIntents (specifically in AppEntity functions that fetch the entities) on Release mode, where the uuid isn't found in the schema of models. Works on Debug.
