Development
I reviewed my own iOS app with five parallel agents: here's what they found
Five ~700-line slices, briefs that ask what's well done too, and the verification step that separated real bugs from plausible ones.

Deleting an integration by moving it to Postiz
Routing Dev.to publishing through Postiz and deleting the native client: the DTO that validates stricter than the runtime, the draft that isn't, and a cover image lost to local storage.
Development
Wiring up SwiftLint and GitHub Actions CI for an iOS app (and the runner that lied)
Adopting a linter on code that never had one, a framework-free pre-commit hook, and three things the macOS runner did that the docs didn't mention.

StoreKit 2 lifetime unlock in a Swift 6 SwiftUI app: three things that bit me
The purchase API is the easy part. The seams between StoreKit 2, Swift 6 isolation, and SwiftUI observation are where the time went.
Development
Deleting a publishing integration I just built
Removing the never-used native Hashnode integration: 31 files, +14/-1126, a grep that lied a little, and the architecture question the deletion forced.
Development
The Postiz webhook I couldn't build, and polling instead
A spike that ended in "don't build this": private-IP rejection, an unauthenticated empty payload, and the pull API that had everything the push lacked.
Development
Building a music player I can't actually hear
An inline mini-player when MusicKit playback is silent in the simulator: a two-method protocol, an honest lie of an indicator, and a bug left in on purpose.
Development
The SwiftData test that crashed with no error message
Five tests reporting a bare "Crash": a tidy helper let the ModelContainer deallocate while the store kept its context. A context is a borrowed thing.
Development
When @MainActor and TaskGroup don't mix in Swift 6
The region-based isolation checker tells me to file a bug, and the unfashionable unstructured Task turns out to be the correct tool.
Development
Scheduling and smarter link-sharing for my Postiz cross-poster
Future scheduling, richer blurbs with thumbnails, and a which-URL picker, plus the wall-clock timezone bug and the import that copied the wrong column.
