App Store Connect MCP Server
Automate App Store Connect from your AI agent.
Overview
This MCP server lets AI agents like Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and Cursor manage your App Store Connect workflows through natural language. Create versions, update metadata, attach builds, and submit for review β all without leaving your editor.
Built in Swift with the MCP Swift SDK, it connects directly to the App Store Connect REST API using ES256 JWT authentication.
Key Features
- Release workflows β Prepare releases, check status, validate before submission, and clone metadata between versions
- Version management β Create, update, and list App Store versions
- Localized metadata β Add descriptions, keywords, release notes, and URLs for any locale
- Build management β List builds, upload IPAs, and attach builds to versions
- Diagnostics & performance β View diagnostic signatures, logs, and performance metrics per build
- Review submission β Submit versions to App Review in one step
- Multi-organization β Manage multiple App Store Connect teams from a single server
- Secure auth β ES256 JWT signing via Apple CryptoKit with automatic token refresh
Build From Source (Setup)
Use this path if you want to work on or build this repository locally.
Prerequisites
- macOS 13+, Swift 6.0+ / Xcode 16+
- Tuist 4.x (
brew install tuist) - An App Store Connect API key with App Manager role or higher
Install and Build
./bootstrap.sh
This fetches dependencies, generates the Xcode project, and builds. Or manually:
tuist install && tuist generate && tuist build
Configure
Set your API credentials:
export ASC_KEY_ID="your-key-id"
export ASC_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH="/path/to/AuthKey_XXXXXX.p8"
export ASC_ISSUER_ID="your-issuer-id" # required for team keys
export ASC_AUTH_MODE="team" # "team" (default) or "individual"
Get these values from App Store Connect > Users and Access > Integrations > App Store Connect API. For individual keys, set ASC_AUTH_MODE="individual" and omit ASC_ISSUER_ID.
Install via npm
Use this path if you only want to run the MCP server and not build from source.
Prerequisites
- Node.js 18+ and npm
- macOS
Install/Run Command
npx -y @vvlladd/appstoreconnect-mcp
Connect to Claude Code
Add to ~/.claude.json (global) or .claude/settings.json (project) and use the npm package:
{
"mcpServers": {
"appstoreconnect": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@vvlladd/appstoreconnect-mcp"],
"env": {
"ASC_KEY_ID": "your-key-id",
"ASC_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH": "/path/to/AuthKey.p8",
"ASC_ISSUER_ID": "your-issuer-id",
"ASC_AUTH_MODE": "team"
}
}
}
}
Then ask your agent something like:
"Prepare version 2.1.0 for my app, validate it's ready for submission, and show me the full release status."

Configuration
Environment Variables
| Variable | Description | Required |
|---|---|---|
ASC_KEY_ID | API key ID | Yes |
ASC_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH | Path to .p8 private key file | Yes |
ASC_ISSUER_ID | API issuer ID | Team keys only |
ASC_AUTH_MODE | team (default) or individual | No |
Multi-Organization Support
Manage multiple App Store Connect teams by setting org-prefixed environment variables:
ASC_ORG_acme_ISSUER_ID=xxx
ASC_ORG_acme_KEY_ID=yyy
ASC_ORG_acme_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH=/path/to/acme.p8
ASC_ORG_acme_AUTH_MODE=team
ASC_ORG_startup_ISSUER_ID=aaa
ASC_ORG_startup_KEY_ID=bbb
ASC_ORG_startup_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH=/path/to/startup.p8
ASC_DEFAULT_ORG=acme # optional, defaults to first org alphabetically
When multi-org variables are present, single-org variables are ignored. Use list_orgs to see configured organizations and set_default_org to switch at runtime.
