What is asc-app-create-ui?

A guide to creating an app record in App Store Connect through the signed-in website, using browser automation because app creation is not handled by the public API. It covers required app details, prerequisites, login, and safety checks.

Use it to create a new iOS, macOS, tvOS, or visionOS app record after registering its bundle ID and gathering the required name, SKU, language, access, and platform details.

It provides a controlled process for creating the record while checking that the bundle ID exists and preventing accidental duplicate or unconfirmed creation.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00039	$0.01299
Opus 5.5	$0.00016	$0.00520
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00008	$0.00260

Security

Grade A, and why

asc-app-create-ui 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 1mo 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.

Origin

This is a copy

asc app create (UI automation)

Use this skill to create a new App Store Connect app by driving the web UI. This is opt-in, local-only automation that requires the user to be signed in.

Preconditions

A browser automation tool is available (Playwright, Cursor browser MCP, or equivalent).
User is signed in to App Store Connect (or can complete login + 2FA).
The bundle ID must already be registered in the Apple Developer portal.
Required inputs are known:
- app name (max 30 characters)
- bundle ID (must exist and be unused by another app)
- SKU
- platform (iOS, macOS, tvOS, visionOS)
- primary language
- user access (Full Access or Limited Access)

Safety Guardrails

Never export or store cookies.
Use a visible browser session only.
Pause for a final confirmation before clicking "Create" (for standalone scripts).
Do not retry the Create action automatically on failure.

Workflow

1. Preflight: register bundle ID and verify no existing app

# Register the bundle ID via public API (if not already registered)
asc bundle-ids create --identifier "com.example.app" --name "My App" --platform IOS

# Confirm no app record exists yet
asc apps list --bundle-id "com.example.app" --output json

2. Open App Store Connect

Navigate to https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/apps and ensure the user is signed in.

3. Open the New App form

The "New App" button (blue "+" icon) opens a dropdown menu, not a dialog directly.

Click the "New App" button to open the dropdown.
Click the "New App" menu item inside the dropdown.
The creation dialog/modal appears.

4. Fill required fields (in order)

Platform (checkboxes)

The platforms are checkboxes (not radio buttons). Click the checkbox for the desired platform(s):

iOS, macOS, tvOS, visionOS
Multiple can be selected.

Name (text input)

Label: Name
Max 30 characters.

Primary Language (select/combobox)

Label: Primary Language
Use select_option or equivalent with the language label (e.g., "English (U.S.)").

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.
