GitHub tool automates App Store checks
App Store Preflight, a GitHub tool, automates iOS/macOS pre‑submission audits and includes AI‑specific checklists to reduce rejection risk during app review. The project aims to streamline app deployment for teams shipping AI features. (x.com)
The repository named app-store-preflight-skills is published under the user truongduy2611 and is described as an AI agent “Preflight” skill that scans Xcode projects, source code, metadata, and configuration files for App Store Review violations. (github.com)) Installation guidance in the SKILL.md instructs teams to install the App Store Connect CLI via Homebrew with brew install asc and to pull canonical metadata using asc metadata pull --app "<APP_ID>" --version "<VERSION>" --dir./metadata for the scanner to run against concrete App Store metadata. (github.com)) The README documents a structured index that the author says covers 100+ App Review guideline sections and lists 10 app-type checklists; one of those is an AI/Generative‑AI checklist (references/guidelines/by-app-type/ai_apps.md) that explicitly mentions model vendors such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude. (github.com)) SKILL.md enumerates workflow features including severity-tagged findings with affected files and resolution steps, a report model that classifies issues as blocking or warning, and an “Autofix + Validate” flow to apply fixes and re-run the affected checks. (github.com)) The repository’s references include app‑type rules for macOS, subscriptions/IAPs, UGC, kids, health & fitness, games, crypto/finance and VPN, and a concrete rule file labels “Minimum Functionality” as guideline 4.2 with severity REJECTION. (github.com)) Public metadata and mirrors show the project has been forked multiple times (fork count shown as 18 on repository listings) and appears across skill marketplaces and forks (for example, forks by matou9 and listings on SkillsMP), indicating community uptake and adaptation paths for CI/agent-driven preflight workflows.
