The phase already declares its Rust source inputs and generated binary output, so Xcode can avoid rerunning the release sidecar build for unrelated app edits. Prior-art: teamleaderleo/Glaeda and teamleaderleo/Tact

Apple Xcode shell script build phase output files dependency analysis rerun when outputs exist after failed script
💡 Result:
<search_synthesis>
In Xcode, the build system determines whether to rerun a Run Script build phase based on its dependency analysis, which checks if the script's declared output files exist and if its input files have changed [1][2]. If a script fails during execution, it returns a nonzero exit code, which Xcode treats as a build failure [3]. If the script partially executed or failed after creating some of its declared output files, those files remain on disk. On the subsequent build attempt, Xcode's dependency analysis will see that these output files already exist [1]. If the input files have not changed, Xcode may incorrectly conclude that the script does not need to be rerun, potentially leading to a "false success" where the build proceeds using stale or incomplete outputs from the previous failed attempt [1][4]. To ensure the build system correctly identifies that the script must be rerun after a failure, you should consider the following strategies: 1. Clean the Build Folder: Manually performing a "Clean Build Folder" (Shift-Command-K) removes the derived data, including the stale output files, forcing the script to run again from scratch [5]. 2. Ensure Atomic Output Creation: Design your script to write its outputs to temporary files first and only move them to the final, declared output paths upon successful completion. This prevents the build system from seeing "valid" (but actually incomplete or corrupted) output files if the script crashes midway. 3. Use Unique/Dynamic Outputs: If possible, include a timestamp or build-specific identifier in your output filenames, though this is often impractical for standard build artifacts. 4. Disable Dependency Analysis (Not Recommended): You can uncheck "Based on dependency analysis" in the build phase settings [6][7]. This forces the script to run on every build, which guarantees it will run after a failure but significantly increases build times by eliminating incremental build optimizations [1][4]. For robust builds, it is best practice to keep "Based on dependency analysis" enabled and ensure your script is idempotent and handles failures gracefully by cleaning up its own partial outputs [3][1].

Prevent reuse of a sidecar built for another architecture. The phase keys its stamp by ARCHS, but the script writes the binary to the shared $(TARGET_BUILD_DIR)/.../bin/cmux-diff-sidecar path. A universal build followed by ARCHS=arm64 overwrites that binary while creating a different stamp. A later universal build can find its old stamp and the shared binary, so Xcode can skip the phase without checking the stamp checksum. The bundle then contains mismatched slices, and scripts/sign-cmux-bundle.sh rejects them.
Set alwaysOutOfDate = 1 on the Build Diff Sidecar phase so Xcode rebuilds the shared artifact for every architecture configuration.

Summary
Remove the unconditional
alwaysOutOfDateoverride from the Diff Sidecar phase. Its Rust manifest, lockfile, toolchain file, production sources, and build/verification scripts are already declared as inputs, and the generated sidecar path is declared as an output. Unrelated Swift edits can therefore avoid rerunning the release Cargo build.This is based directly on current upstream
main; it does not copy the fork-only branch or claim a measured end-to-end speedup.Build-setting contract
The phase now declares an architecture/deployment-target keyed stamp and the script writes it only after the verified destination artifact is complete. This prevents a reused DerivedData directory from treating an arm64 artifact as universal or vice versa. The Xcode phase explicitly pins
CMUX_DIFF_SIDECAR_ARCHSandCMUX_DIFF_SIDECAR_MIN_MACOSto the corresponding Xcode build settings before invoking the script. Direct script callers retain their override support.CMUX_DIFF_SIDECAR_MIN_MACOSand signing overrides remain script-level controls; changing them in a reused DerivedData path should be treated as invalidating the output and merits a follow-up keyed contract if those overrides become a supported Xcode configuration.Testing
bash -n scripts/build-diff-sidecar.sh./scripts/check-pbxproj.shgit diff --checkUpstream draft #12610 measured the Diff Sidecar phase at 25.3s in native logs, so this is a high-value incremental-build candidate even before a controlled end-to-end receipt exists.
