4.7.0-beta.1
I normally have mainstream taste in games, so it surprised me that I don’t like Expedition 33 at all.
I think the animations look bad, and I hate the combat system.
Playing it is a chore, and I’m not in the mood for chores.
I have been testing the new Siri AI on iOS 27 the last few days trying to implement the Files domain schema in Working Copy.

Nothing that I try seems to work.
Any other developers able to rename files conversationally?
Reply with the date at which you got access to the new Siri AI in the iOS 27 beta.
I have a feeling Apple hasn’t accepted new Siri AI users from the waiting list for weeks.
Please repost for reach.
It can be frustrating to check man-pages on a small screen when you don’t remember the exact parameters and I built something into ShellFish that checks and renders local man-pages.
This makes the manual match the actual software on that server and saves you from opening a browser or another terminal.

iOS 27 allows 3rd party shortcuts actions to run for longer than 30 seconds making me publish 2 actions that have been hidden behind feature flags for years.
Create cloud servers, run commands and destroy them again right from Shortcuts.
Video would have taken 107 seconds without edits.
Hips Don’t Lie, Waka Waka, La La La and now Dai Dai.
What is it with Shakira and the World Cup?
Claude Code worktrees are useful for parallel work but will eat up SSD space.
I wrote a small WorktreeCreate hook to share identical files between worktrees using APFS cloning. Byte-identical to git worktree add and easy to install.
This review made me very happy.

My S3 and FTP apps added support for MCP (Model Context Protocol) around this time last year, when I was caught up in the early MCP euphoria and Apple Intelligence disappointment.
MCP turned out to be mostly useful for developers, and even for them regular command line scripts are superior when working locally.
This feature had zero users, and MCP support will be purged in the next App Store update.
Anyone able to recommend some ollama model that supports tool-calling and can run on 32GB memory?
I’m having very poor results with qwen3 variants.
Couldn't stop myself from wiring up the on-device Apple Intelligence model with tool-calling.
It gets confused quickly as context grows and I don't expect this to land in the App Store version anytime soon, but it does sort of work - with all the usual caveats of LLM unreliability.
Try it out in the current Working Copy beta:

I love this thread and hope it will continue and cover many years.
Jobs said that “You can't start with the technology and try to figure out where you're gonna try to sell it.” but I never stopped trying.
Check out this new “Request Edit” feature in my S3 app that nobody asked for.
It allows you to share a link giving permission to edit a specific file on any S3 server merging changes if there is more than one person editing.
Working Copy 6.7.5 is out with custom repository icons making each project distinct.
It will try to pick something suitable but you have full and easy control.
Update now!

this review made me very angry 😡

I want my file transfer apps to offer cloud storage convenience with lower privacy and monetary costs, and I've been working on making photo backup as simple as possible.
Now there's something ready for iOS/Mac + FTP/S3 that I've found useful — but I need your input. Try it out and tell me what would make it perfect for your workflow.

After years of procrastination, I finally localized Working Copy into German, but it was difficult as some Git terminology should not be translated but still needs to be conjugated for German grammar.
Are you a German software developer? Please try out the Working Copy beta and tell me what to improve.

Secure ShellFish 2026.5 is out with adjustments to work better with Tailscale to easily reach computers on your local network from outside.
It also has a new Sentence mode, making it faster to type natural language with the on-screen keyboard.
As always, there is first-class tmux support and reasonable pricing. https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-store/id1336634154?pt=15897&ct=mastodon&mt=8
I have had support for spinning up Digital Ocean droplets in @ShellFish@indieapps.space for years and finally got around to implementing something similar for Hetzner.
Source Files is the opposite of Working Copy putting repositories in the Finder/Files app by using REST APIs for changes instead of cloning, committing and pushing.
It needs explicit API support which it has had for GitHub, GitLab and BitBucket but now I’m expanding with @gitea@social.gitea.io support.

I’m experimenting with a live activity in @ShellFish@indieapps.space that shows the last line and attempts to show progress in the dynamic island and it feels kind of promising.
