What problem does it solve? Choosing App Store keywords per locale is guesswork without verified popularity and difficulty data, and manual edits risk exceeding Apple's 100-byte keyword limit or duplicating title terms. This Skill audits existing localized keyword fields, mines competitor keywords with measured Astro metrics, and applies only evidence-backed updates through App Store Connect. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Baseline Audit: Reads exact title, subtitle, and keyword values per locale, detecting duplicates, empty tokens, title overlap, and UTF-8 byte counts. - Metric-Gated Candidate Mining: Pulls competitor keywords from Astro per storefront and keeps only candidates passing product-fit, locale-fit, popularity, and difficulty gates. - Safe Mutation Workflow: Composes byte-validated keyword values, renders a dry-run mutation ledger, requires explicit confirmation, and round-trips every write for verification. - Use Case: An indie iOS developer expanding into German and Japanese storefronts uses this Skill to find high-popularity, low-difficulty localized keywords competitors rank for, then updates only those two locales without touching App Review state. ## Quick Start Use app-store-keyword-ops to audit my app's current keywords for all locales and propose verified Astro-backed additions as a dry run.
