app-launch-operator

app-launch-operator is a skill for Codex from MartinPuli/createAnApp. It costs 76 tokens per session (760 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A post-approval launch workflow for distributing an Apple app through the App Store and measuring whether it reaches and retains the right users. It covers setup, truthful marketing, campaign tracking, subscriptions, support, and response plans.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare support and legal pages, app-store optimization, campaign links, Custom Product Pages, Product Page Optimization, Apple Ads, social promotion, launch budgets, attribution, retention tracking, and subscription operations.
Why use it?
It separates store approval and initial downloads from evidence that the product is useful and commercially viable. It also helps prevent marketing claims, tracking, or promotional materials from creating policy and disclosure problems.

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

app-launch-operator 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 62 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

App Launch Operator

Turn approval into a controlled distribution experiment. Do not equate downloads, one purchase, or App Store approval with product-market fit.

Verify launch prerequisites

Confirm storefront availability/release state, working commerce, support coverage, public privacy/terms/support pages, product analytics source, campaign attribution, crash/incident response, rollback path, budget authorization, and policy-safe creative provenance.

Do not install tracking merely to optimize ads without reopening $app-compliance-auditor and updating disclosures/consent/labels.

Choose a beachhead

Define one target segment, painful job, purchase moment, territory, promise, proof, and primary channel. Select channels by buyer behavior rather than fashion. Favor high-intent search, niche communities, tutorials, creators, partners, and Apple product pages that match the job.

Build truthful assets

Create a hook, real app demonstration, proof, objection answer, and CTA. Use captured release UI rather than AI-generated fake screens. AI may assist production, but never fabricate a customer, testimonial, review, creator endorsement, expert, revenue, result, or scarcity. Preserve source/license/AI/approval records.

Read references/creative-and-presence.md when establishing the domain, support email, social profiles, short-form videos, or AI-assisted creative pipeline.

Instrument attribution

Use App Store campaign links and Custom Product Pages where useful. Define naming conventions for channel, audience, creative, promise, and date. Use App Analytics/Sales/Subscriptions as the source of truth when no declared first-party telemetry exists.

Measure the funnel:

  1. impression or qualified reach;
  2. product-page view;
  3. download;
  4. first launch;
  5. core-job activation;
  6. paywall view;
  7. trial/purchase;
  8. renewal/retention;
  9. refund/cancellation/support burden;
  10. proceeds and contribution after fees/spend.

Use App Store Connect Analytics definitions and account for usage-data opt-in/privacy thresholds. Compare channels on retained paying cohorts and contribution, not download volume alone.

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.
