I was really, really hoping this was about enabling emacs to be scripted via siri shortcuts. (Though this is super useful, too).

Honestly, just being able to set emacs full/split screen via a siri shortcut (and hence, any Shortcut script) would be unbelievably useful for automating pieces of my workflow.

You should be able to attach an apple script to a Siri shortcut that runs emacsclient:

/opt/homebrew/bin/emacsclient -e '(toggle-frame-maximized)'

You may find this osx tiler useful. These days I can't live without it and it's been stable for me for quite some time.

Did yabai ever fix native tabs totally breaking your window layout? I really want to use it, but not being able to use terminal or finder tabs with it is a tough sell.
Well I guess the answer is yes but since I never encountered that issue in the first place I wouldn't consider my opinion definitive. I did just test tabs in iTerm and Finder, both functioned just fine without any weirdness. Hope that helps!
