Validating an app version, preparing its metadata and privacy details, submitting or cancelling a review, monitoring submission status, and repairing review-readiness problems.
Why use it?
It checks and fixes release blockers before or during submission, while leaving release strategy decisions to another skill.

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

appstore-review-readiness 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/review_readiness_plan.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 40 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

App Store Review Readiness

Use asc validate and current review commands. Do not use legacy submit-preflight or submit-create shortcuts.

For go/no-go planning, first-submission strategy, or choosing which release skill owns a blocker, use appstore-release-planner first. This skill owns command execution once the review-readiness path is selected.

Preconditions: auth configured; app/version/build IDs resolved; build processing complete unless using --wait; metadata, app info, screenshots, review details, content rights, encryption, pricing, availability, and App Privacy expected complete.

Command Plan Helper

For a deterministic dry-run command plan, run the helper from the plugin root:

python3 "$PLUGIN_ROOT/skills/appstore-review-readiness/scripts/review_readiness_plan.py" \
  --app "APP_ID" --version "1.2.3" --platform IOS --build "BUILD_ID" \
  --version-id "VERSION_ID" --submission-id "SUBMISSION_ID" \
  --metadata-dir "./metadata" --include-submit

The helper prints commands only; it does not call ASC, mutate review state, or read credentials. Pass --json for machine-readable output. Pass --confirming-actions only after manually verifying that generated --confirm commands are intended.

Workflow

  1. Generate the helper plan unless the user requested one specific command.
  2. Run read-only readiness checks first: processed build state, normal validate, strict validate, and version-id validate when available.
  3. Repair blockers in the smallest owning surface: encryption, content rights, metadata, screenshots, IAP/subscriptions, or App Privacy.
  4. Submit only after dry-run output is clean and the user has clearly selected the build/version to send.
  5. Monitor by app, version ID, or submission ID; cancel only when the active submission is identified and the user intends cancellation.

For macOS App Store review, use the same flow with --platform MAC_OS.

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.
