Describe a Shortcut could soon support actions from third-party developers. Currently, the feature only supports Apple-developed actions. With a new feature flag in iOS 27.2 and macOS 27.2, the model can now choose actions from third-party apps. To enable: sudo mkdir -p /Library/Preferences/FeatureFlags/Domain && \ sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/FeatureFlags/Domain/Shortcuts third_party_generative_tools -dict Enabled -bool true and reboot your Mac. Then tell siriactionsd to re-build its tool database: metadata="$HOME/Library/Shortcuts/ToolEmbeddingDatabase/toolEmbeddingDatabaseMe
