Create, organize, translate, and validate App Store / Mac App Store listing metadata for an Xcode project — localized text (name, subtitle, description, keywords, promo text, release notes, URLs), review information, categories, and screenshot file placement. Use whenever the user wants to write, translate, fix or validate App Store listing text, set up the fastlane metadata structure, or manage multi-language listings ("טקסט לאפסטור", "תתרגם את הליסטינג"). It scaffolds the per-locale files, validates against Apple's limits, and says which steps are website-only. It authors into a hub when there is one and the repo's fastlane/ when there is not — so it is the direct route for a single app, while store-metadata-writer is preferable once a hub holds the profile and both stores must stay consistent. It does NOT upload: delivery to App Store Connect is app-store-deliver's job.

From the source SKILL.md

Getting an app listing accepted means every localized field is present, within Apple's character limits, and consistent across languages — and that the things that can't be set programmatically (age rating, pricing, privacy questionnaire) get done on the website. This skill authors and validates that metadata; the actual deliver upload to App Store Connect is the app-store-deliver skill.

What this skill does

App Store Metadata is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the translation sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/app-store-metadata/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use whenever the user wants to write, translate, fix or validate App Store listing text, set up the fastlane metadata structure, or manage multi-language listings ("טקסט לאפסטור", "תתרגם את הליסטינג"). It scaffolds the per-locale files, validates against Apple's limits, and says which steps are website-only.
