Version 13.0 is out: https://github.com/kean/Nuke/releases/tag/13.0.0. It was a monumental effort to update it to all the latest Swift features, namely Swift Testing and Data Race Safety. You skip a major release or two, and the amount of catch-up really adds up.

Most of your AI automation ideas don’t need AI. Just ask the AI to script it for you instead.
I bet the main reason people don't use Xcode Coding Assistant is simply its placement, which makes it mutually exclusive to Navigators. It's such a better experience to just have a large CC terminal window separate from Xcode.
I can't wait for the real-world compile time numbers on these.
The ExecuteSnippet tool is fantastic. It really speeds up the trial-and-error process.
One obvious caveat – I ran a detailed side-by-side comparison based on the up-to-date codebases, but, in some cases, it still simply blindly trusted what's written in the README.
