Hopper's MCP in something like Codex is *killer*. I can ask it things like, 'what private API could I use to make a UIKit window dockable on visionOS', and it will just figure it out from the disassembly, same way I would — just a lot faster.
Its solution matches the one I reverse-engineered myself a while back (https://github.com/steventroughtonsmith/VisionImmersiveDockableUIKit/blob/main/VisionImmersiveDockableUIKit/Source/Application/VVUDockableWindowScene.swift)

Liquid Glass is a catastrophe.

OMG, @khaost is my hero. They posted about this Apple Watch repair dock which allowed for direct connection debugging in Xcode. Just got mine in the mail and it 100% works. For the first time in my 11 years of active watchOS development that I can reliably/quickly step through code running on device.
It is a bit pricing and does feel a little bit sketchy in terms not being officially supported but I don't care…it will save me huge amounts of time and gray hairs to not doing it wirelessly.
