App Store Readiness

Audit a mobile app project for app store submission readiness. Detect the project type automatically and check against platform-specific requirements for the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

Workflow

1. •Detect project type and target platforms
2. •Run the automated scanner
3. •Load relevant platform checklist(s) and review results
4. •Walk through items that cannot be automated
5. •Produce a final readiness report

Step 1: Detect and Scan

Run the scanner to auto-detect framework and platforms and perform automated checks:

python3 <skill-path>/scripts/check_project.py <project-root>

Output: JSON with project_type (framework + platforms), summary (error/warning/pass counts), and issues array.

Step 2: Load Platform Checklists

Based on detected project type, read the relevant reference files for the full checklist:

Each reference file contains a complete checklist organized by category. Use these to supplement the automated scan with manual review items.

Step 3: Review Automated Results

Present scanner results grouped by severity:

1. •Errors (blockers) - Must fix before submission
2. •Warnings (risks) - Likely to cause rejection or should be addressed
3. •Passed - Checks that look good

Step 4: Manual Review

Walk through critical items that cannot be verified by scanning files alone:

Store Assets and Metadata

• •Screenshots for all required device sizes
• •App description, keywords, promotional text within character limits
• •Privacy policy URL live and accessible
• •Support URL or email functional
• •Age rating questionnaire accuracy

Testing

• •Tested on physical devices
• •Tested on oldest and newest supported OS versions
• •In-app purchases tested in sandbox (if applicable)
• •Push notifications verified end-to-end
• •Deep links and universal links working

Legal and Compliance

• •Privacy policy hosted and URL submitted
• •Data collection declarations match actual behavior
• •ATT prompt before tracking (iOS)
• •Account deletion offered (required by both stores)
• •COPPA compliance if targeting children

App Review Preparation

• •Demo account credentials ready (if login required)
• •Review notes for non-obvious features
• •Contact information current

Step 5: Produce Report

Summarize findings using this structure:
