Asc Aso Audit

Runs a two-phase ASO audit on App Store Connect metadata that's already pulled locally. First it does offline checks: finds keywords wasted in your subtitle, flags underused character limits, catches formatting errors like spaces after commas, and spots lazy copy-paste localization. Then it hits Astro MCP to extract competitor keywords and surface ranking gaps across multiple store territories. The cross-locale competitor analysis is the real value here, since keyword popularity varies wildly by market. You'll want references/aso_rules.md in your project for the full ruleset. Best used after asc metadata pull when you're prepping an update and need to squeeze more discoverability out of your 100-character keyword budget.

Files

asc ASO audit

Run a two-phase ASO audit: offline checks against local metadata files, then keyword gap analysis via Astro MCP. When available, include Apple-generated app tags as a discoverability signal.

Preconditions

Metadata pulled locally into canonical files via asc metadata pull --app "APP_ID" --version "1.2.3" --dir "./metadata".
If metadata came from asc migrate export or asc localizations download, normalize it into the canonical ./metadata layout before running this skill.
For Astro gap analysis: app tracked in Astro MCP (optional — offline checks run without it).
For Apple-generated discoverability tags: asc app-tags list --app "APP_ID" --output json works when the API returns tags for the app.

Before You Start

Read references/aso_rules.md to understand the rules each check enforces.
Identify the latest version directory under metadata/version/ (highest semantic version number). Use this for all version-level fields.
The primary locale is en-US unless the user specifies otherwise.
