Apple developer tools (swift test, xcodebuild) output symbols from SF Symbols font using Unicode private use area characters. Without SF fonts in the fallback chain, these characters render as placeholder boxes. Add SF Mono and SF Pro to the end of terminal font family list to properly render symbols from Apple tools output while preserving the default font.
