aso-skills

aso-skills is a collection of AI agent skills that integrate with Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI assistants to help indie developers and app marketers optimize their mobile app listings, conduct keyword research, analyze competitors, and execute growth strategies. It pulls live data from the Appeeky API and provides structured frameworks—scoring rubrics, templates, and checklists—to guide ASO and app marketing workflows.

What aso-skills is

A Shell-based, MIT-licensed skill collection designed for Agent Skills-compatible AI platforms. It wraps ASO and app-growth workflows as modular skills that route requests to specialized handlers (e.g., /aso-audit, /keyword-research, /metadata-optimization), leveraging the Appeeky API for real App Store and Google Play data. Last updated June 2026; no formal release versioning.

Quickstart

Get the aso-skills source

Clone the repository and explore it locally.

Best use cases

ASO Audits and Metadata Optimization

Teams conducting app store listing audits, writing app titles/subtitles, or optimizing keyword fields. The aso-audit skill scores listings across 10 factors; metadata-optimization generates title variants with character counts. Real data via Appeeky API ensures recommendations reflect current market conditions.

Keyword Research and Competitor Analysis

Indie developers and growth teams researching ASO keywords by volume/difficulty/relevance or identifying competitor keyword gaps and positioning opportunities. The keyword-research and competitor-analysis skills group findings into primary/secondary/long-tail buckets and flag exploitable gaps.

Growth Campaign Planning and Launch Strategy

Teams planning app launches, user acquisition campaigns (ASA, Meta, Google UAC), or seasonal strategy shifts. Skills cover 8-week launch timelines, Apple Search Ads campaign structure, creative briefs (screenshots, preview videos, icons), and In-App Events planning—all with checklists and templates.

Implementation considerations

Appeeky API authentication and account setup required before any data-driven skill can execute. Verify API key availability and rate limits (Unknown).
Choose integration path: Cursor (via Settings > Rules > Remote Rule), Claude Code (npx), or manual Git clone. Each path has different setup friction.
Skills assume familiarity with app store metadata fields (title, subtitle, keyword field, description, screenshots) and basic ASO terminology. Review README examples to confirm alignment with team knowledge.
Router skill (/aso-skill) auto-routes requests to specialists, but direct skill invocation (/aso-audit, /keyword-research, etc.) is also supported. Team may need to establish naming conventions to avoid confusion.
Output templates are provided (e.g., 3 title variants, keyword groupings, competitor teardowns), but teams must customize them for their app category, audience, and brand voice.

When to avoid it — and what to weigh

Requires Appeeky API Key / Paid Account — The skills depend on Appeeky API access to retrieve live App Store and Google Play data. Teams without an Appeeky account or API key cannot execute data-driven workflows (ASO audits, market intelligence, competitor tracking). Unknown pricing and SLA terms.
Non-Mobile / Non-App Businesses — aso-skills is purpose-built for app store optimization and mobile app marketing. SaaS web platforms, desktop software, or non-software products will find little relevance.
Unfamiliar with AI Agent Platforms (Cursor, Claude Code) — The skills are designed for integration into Cursor, Claude Code, or MCP-compatible AI assistants. Teams without these tools or without familiarity with Agent Skills syntax will need setup and training overhead.
Minimal ASO / Marketing Expertise — While the skills provide templates and scoring rubrics, they assume users understand ASO fundamentals (keyword volume, app store metadata, competitor positioning). Teams entirely new to app marketing may need external learning or domain expertise to interpret and act on skill outputs.

License & commercial use

MIT License (permissive, OSI-compliant). Permits commercial use, modification, distribution, and private use with only requirement to include original license and copyright notice in distributions.

MIT is a permissive, well-established OSI license that explicitly allows commercial use. Skills themselves are free to use and modify under MIT terms. However, commercial value flows through Appeeky API (which is separate from this repo and may require commercial licensing; Appeeky terms are not included in DATA). Verify Appeeky's commercial use policy with their documentation before deploying in paid products or services.

Security considerations

Skills handle sensitive inputs: App Store app IDs, competitor app names, market data, and potentially API credentials. Ensure Appeeky API key is stored securely in agent environment (method Unknown; requires review of Cursor, Claude Code, or MCP security practices). No data is committed to this repo, but downstream Appeeky API calls transmit app data over network (standard HTTPS assumed, not verified). No stated security audit, pen test, or vulnerability disclosure policy. Review Appeeky's privacy and data retention policies separately.

Alternatives to consider

App Annie (now data.ai)

Commercial ASO and market intelligence platform with built-in dashboards, benchmarking, and competitor tracking. Broader feature set but vendor lock-in, higher cost, and no open-source integration. Suitable for enterprises; smaller teams may find aso-skills lighter weight.

Mobile Action / Sensor Tower

Specialized ASO SaaS tools with visual editors, A/B testing frameworks, and ranking trackers. Easier onboarding for non-technical users but closed-source and paid. aso-skills is code-first and free, leveraging AI agent platforms instead.

Manual ASO via App Store Connect + Google Play Console APIs

Direct, free integration with native app store APIs (App Store Connect API, Google Play Developer API) for metadata updates and performance metrics. Requires custom scripting but avoids Appeeky dependency. Less opinionated guidance than aso-skills; higher development burden.

aso-skills FAQ

Do I need Appeeky to use aso-skills?

Yes, many skills (aso-audit, market-pulse, competitor-analysis, asc-metrics) require Appeeky API access to fetch live App Store and Google Play data. Some skills (e.g., metadata-optimization, onboarding-optimization) provide templates and frameworks without API calls. Verify Appeeky account and API key availability before deploying.

Which AI agents are supported?

Cursor (via Settings > Rules > Remote Rule), Claude Code (npx skills add), and Agent Skills-compatible AI assistants. Manual integration (git clone) also works for any environment that can source skill definitions. Specific support for other agents (ChatGPT, Gemini, etc.) is not documented in available data.

Can I customize or extend the skills?

Yes. MIT license permits modification. Skills are modular (/skills/ folder structure), so you can fork the repo, edit skill templates, outputs, and scoring rubrics, and integrate custom data sources. Ensure you understand ASO frameworks and Agent Skills syntax before making changes.

What if I'm not a mobile app developer?

aso-skills is purpose-built for app store optimization and mobile app marketing. If your business does not distribute via Apple App Store or Google Play, the skills will have limited utility. Consider whether your use case (web-only, desktop software, SaaS) aligns with the project's scope.

Work with a software development agency

Adopting aso-skills is usually one piece of a larger software development effort. As a software development agency, DEV.co provides software development services and web development expertise — pairing senior software developers and web developers with your team to design, build, and operate mcp servers software in production.
