macOS failing to sign Shortcuts on 14.4+

[electrikmilk]

Describe the bug

When signing a Shortcut with the shortcuts binary on macOS through the Cherri compiler, when it attempts to sign the Shortcut produced by Cherri, it produces this output:

Error: Failed to sign Shortcut

shortcuts: ERROR: Unrecognized attribute string flag '?' in attribute string "T@"NSString",?,R,C" for property debugDescription
ERROR: Unrecognized attribute string flag '?' in attribute string "T@"NSString",?,R,C" for property debugDescription
ERROR: Unrecognized attribute string flag '?' in attribute string "T@"NSString",?,R,C" for property debugDescription
ERROR: Unrecognized attribute string flag '?' in attribute string "T@"NSString",?,R,C" for property debugDescription
ERROR: Unrecognized attribute string flag '?' in attribute string "T@"NSString",?,R,C" for property debugDescription
Error: The file “arr.shortcut” couldn’t be saved in the folder “cherri”.

To Reproduce

No code seems to trigger this specifically. Something about the general format of Shortcuts that Cherri currently creates is not compatible with the current version of macOS.

Debug output
Please use the --debug flag and copy the output.

Expected behavior

For the Shortcut to be signed.

Screenshots

Version Information (please complete the following information):

Darwin Kernel Version 23.4.0

go1.22.1 darwin/arm64

This is possibly a macOS bug. debugDescription is not a symbol in the compiler.

The unsigned Shortcut the compiler currently produces I'm not initially seeing anything wrong with.

If you haven't upgraded yet and the compiler still doesn't work, please comment here.

This isn't just main either, it's the latest release as well which worked when I last tested it, this is looking to almost certainly be a macOS bug.

Luckily, I tried playground.cherrilang.org, and that worked just fine. So that's good. I will notify the RoutineHub team to hold off on updating the macOS version on their signing server.

This has been fixed by 0dc365c.

Thanks to the folks at RoutineHub giving us the OK to use their HubSign service as a sustainable backup signing server for the compiler. The playground has been using this for a while and it works great! They will survey macOS updates to ensure that signing is not broken in the next version before they upgrade.

Much ❤️ to RoutineHub and https://github.com/scaxyz/shortcut-signing-server for making this possible!

Not sure if this is still an issue in Sequoia (macOS 15), I have yet to get around to upgrading my OS.

I confirmed this is still a bug on Sequoia (macOS 15).
