asc-cli-usage

A reference for using the asc command-line tool to work with App Store Connect, Apple's service for managing app releases and distribution. It explains commands, options, login, JSON output, pagination, and safe update patterns.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to discover and run asc commands for app records, builds, versions, pricing, availability, and other App Store Connect data.
Why use it?
It reduces errors when automating or debugging App Store Connect tasks from a terminal or script.

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.

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-cli-usage 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 yesterday.

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.

asc cli usage

Use this skill when you need to run or design asc commands for App Store Connect.

Command discovery

  • Always use --help to discover commands and flags.
    • asc --help
    • asc builds --help
    • asc builds list --help

Canonical verbs (current asc)

  • Prefer view over legacy get aliases for read-only commands in docs and automation.
    • asc apps view --id "APP_ID"
    • asc versions view --version-id "VERSION_ID"
    • asc pricing availability view --app "APP_ID"
  • Prefer edit for update-only availability surfaces and other canonical edit flows.
    • asc pricing availability edit --app "APP_ID" --territory "USA,GBR" --available true
    • asc app-setup availability edit --app "APP_ID" --territory "USA,GBR" --available true
    • asc xcode version edit --build-number "42"
  • Keep set where the CLI intentionally models a higher-level replacement/configuration flow and --help still shows set as the canonical verb.

Flag conventions

  • Use explicit long flags (e.g., --app, --output).
  • Prefer explicit flags in automation; some newer commands can prompt for missing fields when run interactively.
  • Destructive operations require --confirm.
  • Use --paginate when the user wants all pages.

Output formats

  • Output defaults are TTY-aware: table in interactive terminals, json when piped or non-interactive.
  • Use --output table or --output markdown only for human-readable output.
  • --pretty is only valid with JSON output.

Authentication and defaults

  • Prefer keychain auth via asc auth login.
  • Fallback env vars: ASC_KEY_ID, ASC_ISSUER_ID, ASC_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH, ASC_PRIVATE_KEY, ASC_PRIVATE_KEY_B64.
  • ASC_APP_ID can provide a default app ID.
  • When permissions are unclear, inspect exact API key role coverage with asc web auth capabilities.
    • This lives under the experimental web auth surface.
    • It can resolve the current local auth by default, or inspect a specific key with --key-id.

Timeouts

  • ASC_TIMEOUT / ASC_TIMEOUT_SECONDS control request timeouts.
  • ASC_UPLOAD_TIMEOUT / ASC_UPLOAD_TIMEOUT_SECONDS control upload timeouts.

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.

asc-cli-usage is a skill published in the GitHub repository moasq/ios-dev-agent (4 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 43 tokens to every session and 578 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
