In Xcode's Settings → Intelligence section, there's no built-in AI agent/model available, only chat bots. I'm not able to download a model through the Components section as well, but no models are offered or downloadable there either.

Environment:

  • Xcode 26.6 and Xcode 27 beta 6
  • macOS 26.6.2
  • MacBook Pro (Apple M4 Pro)

The issue here is that the OS Setting "Apple Intelligence" must be turned on. Other requirements are a Silicon Mac and latest MacOS 26.

Hi @Amer1go I can't reproduce this the only thing I can think of is to check your system settings and ensure that "Apple Intelligence & Siri" is enabled

Hi @GayleDDS

Unfortunately, there is no the Apple Intelligence & Siri settings on my MacBook. Do you think that settings might be related to the absence of built-in AI agents in Xcode?

I've used the "Add an Agent" option via ACP (Agent Client Protocol). I installed the claude-agent-acp tool. I hope Apple will pay attention to this issue soon – (FB24876852).
