gplay-appstore

gplay-appstore is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from PollyGlot/google-play-cli-skills. It costs 59 tokens per session (1,213 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command set for operating a third-party Android app store and its connection to Google Play review. It covers the store's mirrored catalogue and apps hosted by that store.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to mirror Google Play catalogue exports and update events, create or update hosted apps, upload them for review, and check or publish their review status.
Why use it?
It keeps the store operator's package separate from the hosted app being managed, reducing errors when mirroring catalogue data or sending an app through Google's review process.

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

gplay-appstore 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 10d 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.

gplay appstore (alternative app store operations)

gplay appstore acts for the operator of a third-party Android app store: the catalog that store mirrors from Play, and the apps it hosts and must send to Google for review. Publishing your own app to Google Play is gplay-release-flow.

Shared conventions (auth, output, exit codes, --dry-run/--confirm, the [experimental] contract) are in gplay-cli-usage. Read the current flags from gplay appstore <command> --help: it is long and complete, and this skill carries the order the commands go in and the traps between them.

Caller and subject: two packages, one command

Flag Role Falls back to
--store-package the caller, your app store's own package $GPLAY_APP_STORE_PACKAGE (ADR-0043)
--package the subject, the hosted app acted on the repo's .gplay/config.json pin

Swapping the two is the standard failure here. The catalog reads take the caller only, and address the Play app as a positional argument: they ignore the repo pin, so a resolved .gplay/config.json still leaves --store-package required. A missing caller is a usage error (exit 2) before any HTTP call.

A 403 (exit 11) on any of these commands means the caller is not enrolled for alternative distribution; the message names the enrollment.

Mirror Play's catalog

gplay appstore catalog view com.example.app --store-package com.mystore.app

gplay appstore catalog events list \
  --start-time 2026-07-01T00:00:00Z --end-time 2026-07-08T00:00:00Z

catalog events list is the incremental sync feed, and the reason to script this surface at all: each event is a MODIFICATION (re-fetch that app with catalog view) or a DELETION (delist it). Persist each run's --end-time and feed it back as the next run's --start-time; both bounds are required, the range is [start, end), and an end at or before the start is exit 2.

Pagination is one page per invocation, and the page token is only valid against identical parameters: carry --start-time, --end-time and --page-size unchanged into every follow-up call with --page-token. In table output the next token arrives on stderr, in --output json as nextPageToken.

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.
