Hi all, I'm building an iOS app extension using ExtensionKit that works exclusively with its containing host app, presenting UI via EXHostViewController. I'd like the extension to have read-only access to the host's task for process introspection purposes. I'm aware this would almost certainly require a special entitlement. I know get-task-allow and the debugger entitlement exist, but those aren't shippable to the App Store. I'm looking for something that could realistically be distributed to end users. My questions: Does an entitlement exist (or is one planned) that would grant an extension limited, read-only access to its host's task—given the extension is already tightly coupled to the host? If not, is this something Apple would consider adding? The use case is an extension that needs to inspect host process state without the ability to modify it. Is there a path to request such an entitlement through the provisioning profile process, or is this fundamentally off the table for App Store distribution? It seems like a reasonable trust boundary given the extension already lives inside the host's app bundle, but I understand the security implications. Any insight appreciated. Thanks!

I'm adding a few custom signposts with mxSignpost(.begin,...) and mxSignpost(.end,...). Is there a way to force delivery of the MXMetricPayload so I don't need to wait for the daily aggregation to be pushed?

In MetricKit, a metric payload comes in with a time range which usually means it contains multiple launches/sessions. How can we relate things that will change between launches or sessions such as pid and lowPowerModeEnabled from the metadata. Will there be multiple payloads for each unique value or is there some other way to use this?

What are my options if I want to iterate over loaded images (dynamic libraries) within a signal handler? I have a few solutions that might work, but without going too much into them, i'm curious if anyone has experience here, or ideas what to look into. Cheers, AC
