X-callback shortcuts broken in iOS 18 and Sequoia?

I’m assuming this is an iOS 18 and Sequoia thing. Is anyone else seeing x-callbacks not functioning properly in Shortcuts? It’s happening with Things 3 as well which is why I don’t think it’s Bear. It looks like a command callback will generally work, but when I need the response they don’t work at all.

I can confirm the issue and the callback is called by Bear’s code but doesn’t seem to be followed by any event in Shortcuts. Please report this problem to Apple as me.

I reported it for both OSs

I finally updated to ios18 and am seeing the same thing.

I currently use:

bear://x-callback-url/tags?token= (x bearToken) with x-callback

In shortcuts to get a list of tags,

Works fine in iOS 17, but not 18.

Is there any other mechanism that I can use until/if Apple addresses the x-callback-url issue?

I can tell this issue is fixed on macOS 15.1 and iOS 18.1 and both will be out of beta today.
