appstoreconnect-mcp: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

appstoreconnect-mcp AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from yuraist/appstoreconnect-mcp. It costs 704 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for a TypeScript and Node.js MCP server that connects to Apple's App Store Connect API and optionally the Apple Ads API. App Store Connect manages Apple apps, in-app purchases, subscriptions, and releases; an API is a programmatic interface to a service.

In plain words
What is it for?
They help developers work on app-store product management, subscription pricing, release monitoring, and app-store search-term research.
Why use it?
They give coding agents the project structure, authentication rules, error-handling patterns, and testing guidance needed to modify the integrations safely.

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: mentions Claude Code.

This is yuraist/appstoreconnect-mcp's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on appstoreconnect-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything appstoreconnect-mcp configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

appstoreconnect-mcp AGENTS.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Project Overview

TypeScript MCP server wrapping two Apple APIs: the App Store Connect API v2 (IAP management, subscription pricing, product page optimization, release monitoring) and, optionally, the Apple Ads Platform API 1.0 (search term popularity and keyword research for ASO). Designed for local use with Claude Code / Claude Desktop, structured for eventual npm publishing.

Stack

  • TypeScript + Node.js
  • @modelcontextprotocol/sdk — official MCP SDK
  • jsonwebtoken — ES256 JWT signing
  • dotenv — environment variable loading
  • Native fetch for HTTP (no axios/node-fetch)

Architecture

Entry point: src/index.ts — MCP server bootstrap

Auth (src/auth/jwt.ts): Reads ASC_ISSUER_ID, ASC_KEY_ID, ASC_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH from environment. Generates ES256-signed JWTs from .p8 private key, cached for 15 minutes with auto-refresh.

API Client (src/api/client.ts): Single AppStoreConnectClient class. Unwraps JSON:API envelopes into flat objects. Handles cursor-based pagination (auto-fetch-all by default), rate limiting via Retry-After headers, and single retry with exponential backoff.

Ads Auth (src/auth/ads-oauth.ts): Apple Ads uses OAuth2 client-credentials, not the ASC scheme. A long-lived ES256 JWT (iss=teamId, sub=clientId, aud=appleid.apple.com, ≤180 days) serves as the client_secret, which is exchanged at appleid.apple.com/auth/oauth2/token for a 1-hour access token. The two credential sets are not interchangeable.

Ads Client (src/api/ads-client.ts): AppleAdsClient. Base https://api.ads.apple.com, paths carry their own /v1/ prefix. Unwraps the {data, pagination, error} envelope. Note the context header is X-AP-Context: adAccountId=… — the old Campaign Management v4/v5 orgId= form is wrong for Platform API 1.0. query() walks the {offset, pageSize} cursor (max 5000/page); 429s back off exponentially and give up after 5 retries.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
