Christie McGee engineered robust build and CI automation across the swiftlang/swift, swiftlang/swift-driver, and swiftlang/github-workflows repositories, focusing on configurable symbol graph generation and reliable cross-platform workflows. She introduced new command-line options in C++ and Swift to control symbol graph output, enabling developers to skip synthesized members and pretty-print results, which improved debugging and reduced maintenance overhead. Her work included refactoring legacy options, enhancing test coverage, and streamlining license header enforcement through shell scripting and GitHub Actions. By addressing build stability and documentation generation, Christie delivered maintainable solutions that improved onboarding, reproducibility, and developer experience across Swift’s toolchain.

September 2025 net: delivered configurable, test-covered symbol graph tooling across swiftlang/swift and swiftlang/swift-driver, with stronger documentation signals, end-to-end configurability, and reliable build planning validation. Key changes include new options to skip inherited docs and synthesized members, pretty-printing, and propagation of driver/frontend options through compiler invocations, backed by expanded test coverage and targeted fixes to symbol graph extraction. These efforts reduce noise in generated symbol graphs, accelerate debugging, and improve maintainability of API surfaces.
