asc-app-create-ui
by rudrankriyamasc-app-create-ui creates a new App Store Connect app record through browser automation when the public API is not enough. It helps you complete the New App form after sign-in, with clear preconditions for bundle ID, app metadata, and final confirmation.
This skill scores 78/100, which means it is a solid listing candidate for directory users who need App Store Connect app creation via browser automation. The repository gives a clear trigger, concrete prerequisites, and a stepwise workflow, so an agent can understand when to use it and what inputs are required with less guesswork than a generic prompt.
- Explicit trigger: create a new App Store Connect app record via browser automation when no public API is available.
- Good operational clarity: lists prerequisites such as signed-in browser session, existing bundle ID, platform, SKU, language, and access level.
- Useful guardrails: warns against cookie export, requires visible browser use, and pauses before final Create action.
- Workflow appears partial in the excerpt and the repo has no supporting scripts/references/resources, so some steps may still require interpretation.
- No install command or companion files are provided, which reduces plug-and-play adoption for agents and users.
Overview of asc-app-create-ui skill
What asc-app-create-ui does
The asc-app-create-ui skill creates a new App Store Connect app record by driving the browser UI. It is meant for the one case where the public API is not enough: you need an agent to fill the New App form after the user has signed in.
Who should use it
This asc-app-create-ui skill is a good fit for developers, release managers, and automation agents handling Apple app setup. It is most useful when you already know the app metadata and want a reliable, repeatable asc-app-create-ui for Workflow Automation step instead of manual clicking.
What you need before starting
The skill assumes a visible browser session, an authenticated App Store Connect account, and a bundle ID that already exists in Apple Developer and is not yet attached to another app. If any of those are missing, asc-app-create-ui install alone will not solve the workflow.
Why it differs from a generic prompt
A plain prompt can describe the form, but this skill encodes the real preconditions and guardrails that block bad runs: required fields, account state, and the “do not retry Create automatically” rule. That makes the asc-app-create-ui guide more decision-useful than an ad hoc browser instruction set.
How to Use asc-app-create-ui skill
Install and open the right source files
Install with npx skills add rudrankriyam/app-store-connect-cli-skills --skill asc-app-create-ui. Then read SKILL.md first, followed by any linked repo context such as README.md, AGENTS.md, metadata.json, or supporting folders if present. For this repo, SKILL.md is the primary source of truth.
Build a complete request
Give the agent all required inputs up front: app name, bundle ID, SKU, platform, primary language, and access level. A strong prompt looks like: “Create a new App Store Connect app for com.example.app, name Example App, SKU example-ios-001, platform iOS, primary language English, full access. Stop before final submission and ask me to confirm.”
Follow the workflow in order
Use the skill after you have already confirmed the bundle ID exists and no app record is present. Then navigate to https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/apps, verify the signed-in account, open the New App form, review all fields, and pause before the final Create action unless your environment explicitly supports a confirmation step.
Practical tips that improve output quality
Keep the prompt narrow: one app, one bundle ID, one platform. Mention any login constraints, 2FA friction, or org-level access limits before the browser step begins. If the app name is near the 30-character limit or the SKU has a naming convention, state that explicitly so the agent does not improvise.
asc-app-create-ui skill FAQ
Is asc-app-create-ui only for browser automation?
Yes. The core job of the asc-app-create-ui skill is to create the App Store Connect record through the web UI, not to replace Apple’s account setup or app registration steps outside the browser.
Do I need the bundle ID first?
Yes. The skill assumes the bundle ID has already been registered in Apple Developer and is unused by another app. If you skip that prerequisite, the workflow can stall before the form is even valid.
Is this better than a generic prompt?
Usually yes, because the skill captures the real boundaries: required inputs, the signed-in browser requirement, and the final-click safety rule. That reduces guesswork and helps prevent half-completed app creation attempts.
When should I not use it?
Do not use asc-app-create-ui if you do not have interactive browser access, if you cannot complete login and 2FA, or if you still need to register the bundle ID first. It is also a poor fit when you want unattended retries on failure.
How to Improve asc-app-create-ui skill
Give the agent the exact app identity
The most important way to improve asc-app-create-ui usage is to supply precise app metadata. Use the final app name, exact bundle ID, SKU format, platform, language, and access level rather than asking the agent to infer them from a product brief.
Prevent failures before the form opens
Common failure modes are missing bundle IDs, duplicate app records, and unclear account permissions. Before running the skill, verify the bundle ID status and the App Store Connect role, because those issues are faster to fix outside the browser than during form entry.
Make confirmation points explicit
If you want a human check before submission, say so in the prompt. The skill already warns against auto-retrying Create, but you can improve reliability further by asking the agent to summarize the filled fields and wait for approval before the final click.
Iterate using the first attempt
After the first run, inspect which field caused friction: naming, platform choice, access level, or login state. Then update your next asc-app-create-ui guide request with that missing detail so the agent spends less time recovering and more time completing the form correctly.
