Automated summary

This skill documents how to look up App Store Connect IDs (apps, builds, versions, TestFlight groups, testers) from human-friendly names using the asc CLI.

Strengths

  • Covers each ID type with its matching asc command
  • Recommends practices such as --paginate and --sort for complete and deterministic results
  • Shows how to set a default APP_ID through the ASC_APP_ID environment variable
  • Explains JSON, table, and markdown output options for different needs

Limitations

  • Assumes the asc CLI is already installed and authenticated with App Store Connect
  • Only addresses ID lookup, not creating or editing App Store Connect resources
  • The listed commands and flags depend on the installed asc version
When to use it

Use it when an asc command or iOS release script needs an ID you only know by name or bundle ID.

When not to use it

Avoid it for actually submitting to the App Store or editing metadata, since the skill is scoped to ID resolution.

Security analysis

Safe
Quality score85/100

The skill only documents read-only asc CLI commands for listing and resolving App Store Connect IDs. It does not instruct destructive actions, credential exfiltration, obfuscated payloads, or safety bypasses.

How this analysis is made

Examples

Resolve app and build IDs
Find the App Store Connect app ID for bundle com.example.app and the latest build ID for version 1.2.3 on iOS, using asc.
List TestFlight groups
Get the TestFlight beta group IDs for app 1234567890 so I can add testers to the right group.
Find review submission ID
Look up the pending review submission ID for my app using asc review submissions-list.

asc id resolver

Use this skill to map names to IDs needed by other commands.

App ID

  • By bundle ID or name:
    • asc apps list --bundle-id "com.example.app"
    • asc apps list --name "My App"
  • Fetch everything:
    • asc apps --paginate
  • Set default:
    • ASC_APP_ID=...

Build ID

  • Latest build:
    • asc builds info --app "APP_ID" --latest --version "1.2.3" --platform IOS
  • Recent builds:
    • asc builds list --app "APP_ID" --sort -uploadedDate --limit 5

Version ID

  • asc versions list --app "APP_ID" --paginate

TestFlight IDs

  • Groups:
    • asc testflight groups list --app "APP_ID" --paginate
  • Testers:
    • asc testflight testers list --app "APP_ID" --paginate

Pre-release version IDs

  • asc testflight pre-release list --app "APP_ID" --platform IOS --paginate

Review submission IDs

  • asc review submissions-list --app "APP_ID" --paginate

Output tips

  • JSON is default; use --pretty for debug.
  • For human viewing, use --output table or --output markdown.

Guardrails

  • Prefer --paginate on list commands to avoid missing IDs.
  • Use --sort where available to make results deterministic.

From the file to a first result

The download contains exactly the content displayed on this page. This copy may differ from the latest version in the source repository.

View the source and supporting files

This download contains SKILL.md only. Any scripts, references, templates and dependencies are not included. Get the required files from the source, preserving their directory structure, before continuing.

1. Download the file

Download SKILL.md

From the root of a test project, save the file as .skill-downloads/app-store-connect-id-resolver-ms47vqj8/SKILL.md, or use the command below. This folder is for inspecting the skill before installation.

Command for macOS/Linux or WSL: requires a POSIX shell and curl. On Windows without WSL, use the download button and create the folder manually.

mkdir -p '.skill-downloads/app-store-connect-id-resolver-ms47vqj8' && curl --fail --show-error --location 'https://skills-guides.com/api/skills/app-store-connect-id-resolver-ms47vqj8/download' --output '.skill-downloads/app-store-connect-id-resolver-ms47vqj8/SKILL.md.part' && mv '.skill-downloads/app-store-connect-id-resolver-ms47vqj8/SKILL.md.part' '.skill-downloads/app-store-connect-id-resolver-ms47vqj8/SKILL.md'

2. Check prerequisites

Read SKILL.md before using it. If it references scripts or external services, inspect them and prepare the required access in your test environment.

No recognized prerequisites section in this file. This does not mean it is self-contained: libraries, tools and access requirements may be mentioned elsewhere in the content or source repository.

The platforms on this page are catalog indications. The paths below follow tool documentation; they do not prove this skill has been run in those tools. No minimum tool version is confirmed for this listing.

3. Load the skill

After inspection, copy the complete folder into your project using one of the commands below, then open a new tool session. The command stops if a folder with the same name already exists: compare the files before replacing it.

Claude Code
test -f '.skill-downloads/app-store-connect-id-resolver-ms47vqj8/SKILL.md' && test -s '.skill-downloads/app-store-connect-id-resolver-ms47vqj8/SKILL.md' && mkdir -p '.claude/skills' && test ! -e '.claude/skills/asc-id-resolver' && cp -R '.skill-downloads/app-store-connect-id-resolver-ms47vqj8' '.claude/skills/asc-id-resolver'

OpenSkills

OpenSkills must already be installed. The local install/read procedure is checked with OpenSkills 1.5.0, which requires Node.js ≥ 20.6.0. Catalog slugs are not resolved automatically.

Official OpenSkills installation
openskills install './.skill-downloads/app-store-connect-id-resolver-ms47vqj8'

openskills read 'app-store-connect-id-resolver-ms47vqj8'

Reading should display the installed file content and its base directory. It does not run the skill or install its dependencies.

For an agent that reads AGENTS.md, then sync the index. This command changes AGENTS.md: review the diff before using it.

openskills sync

Manual method or another tool: attach SKILL.md to a conversation, or open it in an agent that can read files. Include any required supporting resources. No universal folder is recognized by every tool.

4. Try a first task

Use a short, synthetic input: an API endpoint, a small document or an interface brief. In a new conversation, attach the file or give the agent its path, then adapt this request:

Read .skill-downloads/app-store-connect-id-resolver-ms47vqj8/SKILL.md and apply its instructions to this example: [describe a test input]. Identify any missing files, dependencies or access. Produce the result requested by the skill without inventing data or running unreviewed scripts.

Expected result: output matching the skill instructions, or a precise list of missing prerequisites. A read confirmation alone does not validate a first use. If an external resource is unavailable, that path remains untested.
