It’s mind-blowing what agents can provide if they are fed with build systems’ structured data. I feel it’s time to have an alternative to logs as the only tool to understand the work a build system is doing.

New post: The New Bottleneck
AI agents generate code faster than build systems can compile it. What was once a problem for large orgs is getting democratized.
At @tuist we want to make developer productivity accessible to everyone.

Build systems need interoperability, not tool wars. Like shipping containers standardized logistics, we need standard caching contracts.
Current enterprise models bundle tech + service wrong. Compare to Supabase: one click, DB in any region.
Build caching should work the same. Select locations, get cache infra there.
Fabrik aims to be that standard.

Build system caching: the mechanics are similar across platforms.
Cache observability: that's where specialization matters. Working with Xcode means reverse-engineering Apple's undocumented formats to surface meaningful insights about cache performance.
At @tuist we're building Xcode-native caching with first-class observability, so iOS/macOS teams can optimize their builds with data, not guesswork.
