Let me get this straight: I gave Codex full App Store Connect power with @rudrank ASC CLI. I went from having NOTHING configured to having an app in TestFlight public beta review in UNDER 2 minutes. The agent literally did everything itself. Insane. My mind is blown.

An Tran
@antranapp

I can't recommend App Store Connect CLI by @rudrank enough. I'm using it more and more in my workflow now. Just migrated my workflow to upload a build to TestFlight from fastlane to ASC CLI 🤟

Daniel Storm
@DanielStormApps

Used asc cli with cc to just localize my apps metadata to every supported language. This would have taken forever not too long ago.

Thank you for creating such a brilliant open source tool. We have already integrated it into our deployment workflow and agent bot.

@TheDavidDias

I want to give a big shoutout to @rudrank! A few days ago, he launched one of the most incredible project for iOS mobile developers! app-store-connect-cli-skills already saved me hours (not kidding) to create new pricing, create new events, and check what I was missing for more visibility. This is not just an open-source project, it's the best ALL iOS developers should install AND star!

Considering plugging openclaw to this repo and see if I can make some magic.

Just used @rudrank's AppStore Connect CLI and it's come in pretty clutch. I needed to setup 3 apps and wasn't excited to fill out the details for each one of them. Had Claude do it in a few minutes 👌🏾

Mason
@masoncaiws

For the first time ever, I've completed an App Store submission without even opening App Store Connect website. Huge thanks to @rudrank's App Store Connect CLI and Skills. They allowed me to automate the entire submission process using Skills + Agents.
