Xcode makes projects from one set of templates (which can contain files and can start with references to frameworks) for projects, and another set (which can't do those things, except for a very limited repertoire of cheats) for targets. They're two different things. File an enhancement request to bring them into parity.

Most makers of custom SDKs provide project templates, but not target templates.

You say you want a command-line utility, which suggests the BSD category; but then you say you want a REALbasic plugin. Which is it?

Or do you mean you want to start a _new_ project, and add a tool target? Look through the BSD targets. You may have to edit the target build settings (double-click the target icon) and add framework references, but these aren't magic. Look through your working project and match the settings in it. Look in the documentation for .xcconfig files — they'll let you export the working settings and use them in the new target.
