Apple's WWDC26 session covers new Shortcuts features for developers. Automations are now integrated directly into the Shortcuts editor, with three new automation types: screenshot, keyboard, and notification automations. The Use Model action gains access to more capable Apple Intelligence models with web browsing capability, plus a new transcript inspector for debugging model inputs. A new Storage feature lets shortcuts persist data between runs, with values syncing across devices — enabling use cases like tracking previous model outputs to avoid repetition. Developers are guided on exposing App Entities with the right properties for LLM use and ensuring stable cross-device entity identifiers.
