Audit a macOS or iOS Xcode project against Apple's App Store Review Guidelines and fix the issues that get apps rejected, BEFORE submitting to App Store Connect. Use this whenever the user is preparing an app for the App Store or Mac App Store ("נדחה באפסטור", "בדוק תאימות"), mentions an Apple rejection or a guideline number (e.g. "2.1", "5.1.1", "Guideline 3.1.1"), asks why their app might get rejected, talks about App Review / demo accounts / demo mode / review notes, or is about to archive/upload a build. ALSO consult this skill at build time — before archiving or uploading — so the app ships compliant the first time. Covers privacy usage strings, PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy + Required-Reason APIs, ATT, IAP rules, Sign in with Apple, account deletion, sandbox/entitlements justification, and app-completeness (demo mode) requirements. It audits against App Review policy; it does NOT review visual design (apple-hig-design-review) or hunt for bugs (apple-bug-flow-review).

From the source SKILL.md

Apple rejects apps for a fairly predictable set of reasons. This skill scans an Xcode project, maps what it finds against the guidelines that actually cause rejections, reports the gaps with severities, and fixes the safe ones — so a submission passes on the first try instead of bouncing through multiple review cycles (each costing days).
