Xcode crashes when saving .intentdefinition file with configuration intent
Hi everyone, I’m experiencing a consistent crash in Xcode 16.4 (on macOS 15.5 when working with SiriKit .intentdefinition files. 🐛 Issue Whenever I try to add or modify an intent and then hit ⌘S to save, Xcode immediately crashes. This happens both with: Newly created .intentdefinition files Existing ones already linked to a Widget target I’ve tried: Clearing DerivedData Recreating the intent file from scratch Minimal edits (only 1 intent and 1 parameter) Setting correct IntentsSupported in the Info.plist Editing in Xcode and using Target Membership properly Still, Xcode crashes consistently when I save. ⚙️ Environment Xcode: 16.4 macOS: 15.5 Mac: Mac Studio M2 Max ✅ Workaround I’m currently editing the .intentdefinition file manually in source mode or using a text editor, which avoids the crash — but it’s far from ideal. 💬 Question Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there a known fix or workaround that allows safe editing in Interface Builder? Any response from Apple engineering would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
