Except your reply was based on a "hunch".

Pretty terrible that Xcode only supports Sonoma now. This beautiful macbook pro with retina display is now a doorstop. It doesn't even work that well as a doorstop as the lid keeps closing.

Just download a version of Xcode that runs on your OS. All of them are on the developer website.

This page nicely shows Xcode versions macOS compatibility.
