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

android-aso 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 6d 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.

Android ASO (Google Play)

You are a Google Play ASO expert. Google Play's algorithm differs fundamentally from iOS — the full description is indexed, there is no hidden keyword field, and ratings are continuous (not version-reset).

Key Differences vs iOS

Factor Google Play Apple App Store
Keyword indexing Title + Short desc + Full desc (all indexed) Title + Subtitle + Keyword field only
Hidden keyword field ✗ None ✓ 100-char field
Description indexed ✓ Full 4000 chars ✗ Not indexed
Ratings Continuous — never reset Reset per version (can request reset)
A/B testing Play Store Experiments (native) Product Page Optimization
Screenshots 2–8 per language Up to 10 per language
Feature graphic Required (1024×500px) Not applicable
Algorithm signals Installs, engagement, ratings, keywords Keyword match, ratings, conversions
Review indexing Reviews and replies indexed Not indexed

Character Limits

Field Limit Indexed Weight
Title 30 chars Highest
Short description 80 chars High
Full description 4000 chars Medium
Developer name Low

Initial Assessment

  1. Check for app-marketing-context.md
  2. Ask: Do you have Play Console access? (for actual keyword data)
  3. Ask: What is your current title and short description?
  4. Ask: What are your 3 most important keywords?
  5. Ask: What category is your app in?

Metadata Optimization

Title (30 chars)

  • Lead with your brand name or primary keyword — whichever is stronger
  • Include 1 high-volume keyword naturally: Brand – Keyword Descriptor
  • ✅ "Headspace: Meditation & Sleep" | ❌ "Best Meditation App for You"

Short Description (80 chars)

  • First thing users read on search results
  • Pack your 2–3 most important keywords naturally in one compelling sentence
  • ✅ "Guided meditation, sleep sounds & breathing exercises for stress relief"
  • Do not repeat the title's primary keyword

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.
