asc-version-routing is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Abdullah4AI/apple-developer-toolkit. It costs 44 tokens per session (791 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A routing guide for App Store Connect, Apple’s service for submitting apps to the App Store. It checks an app version’s current state before deciding whether its metadata or submission workflow can continue.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before updating app metadata or submitting a version, especially when handling rejected, waiting-for-review, in-review, approved, or live versions.
Why use it?
It prevents you from trying to edit or submit a version while Apple is processing it, reviewing it, or has already released it.

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

asc-version-routing 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.

Version State Routing

Before doing ANY metadata or submission work, check the pre-flight version state from the system prompt and route accordingly.

Version State Reference

State Editable? Description
PREPARE_FOR_SUBMISSION Yes Version created, ready for metadata and submission
DEVELOPER_REJECTED Yes Developer pulled it back from review, editable again
WAITING_FOR_REVIEW No Submitted, waiting in Apple's queue
IN_REVIEW No Apple is actively reviewing
REJECTED No Apple rejected the submission
READY_FOR_SALE No Live on the App Store
PENDING_DEVELOPER_RELEASE No Approved, waiting for developer to release
PROCESSING_FOR_APP_STORE No Apple is processing after approval

First Action: Route by State

State Action
PREPARE_FOR_SUBMISSION Proceed with metadata and submission normally
DEVELOPER_REJECTED Inform user this is a resubmission, then proceed normally
WAITING_FOR_REVIEW Tell user the version is in queue. Ask: cancel review, create new version, or wait
IN_REVIEW Tell user Apple is reviewing. Ask: cancel review (warn loses queue slot), create new version, or wait
REJECTED Ask: view rejection reasons, or create a new version
READY_FOR_SALE This is the live version. Ask what version number for the update
PENDING_DEVELOPER_RELEASE Ask: release now, create new version, or wait
PROCESSING_FOR_APP_STORE Tell user to wait and re-check later, nothing can be done now
No versions exist Ask what version number for the first release

Creating a New Version

When a new version is needed (live app update, after rejection, etc.):

  1. Ask user for version number with a suggestion based on the current live version.
  2. Create via: asc versions create --app APP_ID --version VERSION --platform IOS
  3. If building is also needed, the MARKETING_VERSION in the Xcode project must match the new version number. Update it before building.

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.
