gplay-metadata-sync

gplay-metadata-sync is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from PollyGlot/google-play-cli-skills. It costs 66 tokens per session (1,495 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for keeping Google Play store listings and their images in sync with files on disk. Google Play is the Android app store, and each language or region can have its own listing text and images.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps pull live listings, edit localized titles and descriptions, manage listing images, validate character limits and locale codes, and gate changes in CI before release.
Why use it?
It gives teams a version-controlled copy of store content, so listing changes can be reviewed, checked offline, tested without publishing, and then applied deliberately.

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-metadata-sync 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 4d 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 — 108 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

gplay metadata sync (listings + images)

Manage the store front: per-locale listing text and images, kept as an on-disk tree and reconciled with Play. Shared conventions (auth, --package, output, exit codes) are in gplay-cli-usage.

The sync model

gplay treats a local ./metadata tree (<locale>/<field>.txt, plus image files) as the desired state and reconciles it with Play (ADR-0011). The loop:

pull  →  edit on disk  →  validate (offline)  →  apply --dry-run  →  apply --confirm
  • metadata pull rapatriates the live Listings into the tree (<locale>/title.txt, short_description, full_description, video). It reads inside a read-only Edit (nothing committed) and is additive, a field empty online writes no file, a local locale absent online is left intact. A metadata apply immediately after a pull is a guaranteed no-op.
  • metadata validate lints the tree offline (no auth, no network): character limits (title 30, short 80, full 4000), required non-empty fields (title + full description), and known Play locale codes. Any violation exits 20. Safe in a pre-commit hook or CI gate. (--allow-locale xx-YY whitelists a locale Google added after this gplay release.)
  • metadata apply reconciles disk → Play. Additive by default: it upserts the locales/fields on disk and leaves online-only locales intact (reported). --prune also deletes online-only locales (it refuses to remove the app's defaultLanguage). Note a locale counts as "present on disk" only if its directory holds at least one recognized field file, a folder with only a README is not managed, and under --prune would be deleted online.
  • metadata list summarizes what is live on Play, per locale.

Apply safely

gplay metadata pull --dir ./metadata
# …edit the .txt files…
gplay metadata validate --dir ./metadata          # offline lint, exit 20 on error
gplay metadata apply --dir ./metadata --dry-run    # ONLINE diff, prints per-locale delta
gplay metadata apply --dir ./metadata --confirm    # publishes, live immediately

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.
