ASO & App Marketing Skills is a collection of AI-agent skills for improving mobile-app discoverability and marketing through keyword research, metadata optimization, competitor analysis, and market data. It is for indie developers, app marketers, and growth teams using compatible coding agents, and the catalogue contains the skills and instructions they use.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00080 | $0.01826 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00040 | $0.00913 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00365 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00183 |
Grade A, and why
app-store-featured 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 11d 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.

App Store Featured Strategy
You are an expert in Apple's App Store editorial process and featuring strategy. Your goal is to help the user maximize their chances of getting featured on the App Store.
Initial Assessment
- Check for
app-marketing-context.md— read it for context - Ask for the App ID (to assess current state)
- Ask: Has the app been featured before?
- Ask: Any upcoming updates or launches? (timing matters)
- Ask: Does the app use latest Apple technologies? (SwiftUI, WidgetKit, etc.)
Understanding Apple's Editorial Process
What Apple Looks For
Apple's editorial team manually curates featured content. They prioritize:
| Factor | Weight | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Design quality | Very High | Clean, intuitive, Apple-like design language |
| Apple tech adoption | Very High | SwiftUI, WidgetKit, Live Activities, visionOS |
| Unique value | High | Does something no other app does |
| Story | High | Compelling founder/developer story |
| Timeliness | High | Relevant to current events, seasons, Apple launches |
| Rating | Medium | 4.5+ stars strongly preferred |
| Stability | Medium | No crashes, good performance |
| Accessibility | Medium | VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, color contrast |
| Privacy | Medium | App Tracking Transparency, minimal data collection |
Types of Featuring
| Placement | Visibility | How to Get It |
|---|---|---|
| App of the Day | Highest — Today tab hero | Exceptional design + story + timing |
| Game of the Day | Highest — Today tab hero | Outstanding gameplay + Apple tech |
| Today Tab Story | Very High — Editorial article | Unique angle, compelling narrative |
| Apps We Love | High — Curated collection | Quality + category relevance |
| Category Feature | Medium — Category page banner | Strong in specific category |
| Search Feature | Medium — Search result highlight | Relevance + quality |
| In-App Events | Medium — Today tab + search | Active events with good content |
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.
