Archive Recovery and Signing Validation Xcode Organizer stores build archives locally, allowing developers to re-export binaries for distribution. When these archives are recovered via external macOS backup tools, Xcode does not provide an automated mechanism to verify the internal integrity of the restored archive or the validity of the associated signing i
