Environment
- Version: 1.0.26 (@latest via npx)
- OS: macOS 26
- Client: Claude Code CLI
Problem
search_apple_docs returns "No results found" for ANY query, including basic terms:
- "ModelContext" → 0 results
- "SwiftData" → 0 results
- "UIKit" → 0 results
- "Query" → 0 results
- "View" → 0 results
Tested with fresh npx cache (deleted ~/.npm/_npx and restarted).
Other tools work fine
All JSON-based tools return correct results:
- ✅
list_technologies
- ✅
search_framework_symbols
- ✅
get_sample_code
- ✅
get_apple_doc_content
- ✅ All WWDC tools
Suspected cause
Unknown. The tool worked ~7 months ago (last npm release: September 2025).
Looking at the source code, search_apple_docs uses HTML scraping of developer.apple.com/search?q=....
Possible reasons:
- Apple changed the HTML structure of the search results page
- Apple changed/removed the endpoint
- Rate-limiting or blocking
The other tools (search_framework_symbols, get_sample_code, etc.) use JSON endpoints and still work correctly.
Possible solutions
- Use a headless browser (Puppeteer/Playwright) to execute JavaScript
- Find an alternative Apple API endpoint that returns JSON
- Reverse-engineer the XHR/fetch calls that Apple's search page makes
