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

in-app-events 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 12d 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.

In-App Events Generator

Generate complete In-App Event metadata ready for App Store Connect upload, including event cards, descriptions, deep link configuration, and promotional image specifications.

When This Skill Activates

Use this skill when the user:

  • Asks to "create in-app events" or "add App Store events"
  • Mentions "event cards" or "App Store event metadata"
  • Wants to create seasonal campaigns or challenges on the App Store
  • Asks about "event badges" or "event promotion"
  • Mentions driving engagement through App Store events

How In-App Events Work

In-App Events appear on:

  • Your product page (up to 5 events visible)
  • Search results (when relevant to search term)
  • Editorial features and collections
  • Personalized recommendations

Events are visible to ALL users — including people who haven't downloaded your app. This makes them a powerful discovery and re-engagement tool. Users who opt in also get an App Store notification when the event starts.

Rules & Limits (per Apple)

Rule Value
Event duration 15 minutes to 31 days
Publish ahead of start Up to 14 days early — the card shows the start time
Concurrent limits 10 approved / 5 published simultaneously across storefronts — ASC blocks submission beyond either
Per-country schedules Custom start/end per country, within ±48 hours of the default schedule
Review time ~24 hours typical
Past-event URL Stays live for 30 days after the event ends
Card media One image, or a looping video ≤30 seconds
Submission conflict Marketing role can't submit an event while an app version is in submission
Analytics Event analytics appear only after ≥5 downloads from the event

Configuration Questions

Ask user via AskUserQuestion:

  1. Event type

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.
