iap-finalizer
Take a one-time in-app purchase from MISSING_METADATA to READY_TO_SUBMIT in App Store Connect — set its price schedule and localized display name/description (and optional review screenshot) via the ASC REST API. Use at Phase 6 (Pre-Release), after the IAP is built in-app (Phase 4) and its ASC record exists. NOT for subscriptions, and NOT the same as promoted-iap (which displays IAPs in-app).
npx skills add rshankras/claude-code-apple-skills --skill iap-finalizer --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# IAP Finalizer Finish a **one-time** in-app purchase on the store side: **price + localization**, the two fields the `asc-metadata` MCP can't set (it exposes only reference name / review note / family-sharing). Moves an IAP from `MISSING_METADATA` → `READY_TO_SUBMIT` so it can ship with the build. > **This finalizes; it does not define.** The product id, tier, and price *decision* come from Phase 4 (Monetization / StoreKit). The ASC IAP record must already exist (created via the MCP `create_iap` or the ASC UI). This skill sets the metadata on that existing record. ## Where it fits (read the seams) - **Not Phase 4.** Phase 4 builds the IAP *into the app* (StoreKit 2, paywall) and *decides* the price. This is Phase 6 store-metadata finalization. - **Price = one source of truth.** Do **not** re-ask the price. **Read it** from the monetization decision in `.planning/` (e.g. `MONETIZATION.md` / `PLAN.md`); only *confirm* it. Re-eliciting risks drift from the paywall/StoreKit price. - **Not `promoted-iap`.** That generator displays promoted IAPs in-app; this sets ASC price/localization. Different jobs. - **One-time IAPs only.** Subscriptions are a separate ASC flow (groups/offers) — out

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add rshankras/claude-code-apple-skills --skill iap-finalizer --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From rshankras/claude-code-apple-skills, a repository with 589 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
