# App Store Release Director
Broad release orchestration. For focused `asc` work, delegate to `appstore-connect-cli`, `appstore-id-resolver`, `appstore-archive-uploader`, `appstore-release-planner`, `appstore-review-readiness`, `appstore-metadata-sync`, `appstore-metadata-localizer`, `appstore-screenshot-pipeline`, and `appstore-signing-setup`.
## Workflow
1. Discover release truth:
- git root, workspace/project, scheme, bundle ID, version/build, deployment target, entitlements, generator ownership;
- existing handoff/docs: `apple-publishing-handoff.md`, manifest JSON, `release`, `appstore`, `testflight`, `fastlane`, `ExportOptions.plist`.
2. Verify Apple account/signing:
- team, Team ID, API key, identities, Bundle ID resource/capabilities, distribution cert, provisioning profile;
- keep `.p8`, `.p12`, profiles, passwords, and decoded plists out of git; prefer `.codex-private/apple/` or a secret store.
3. Prepare App Store Connect:
- app record, platform, bundle, app info, categories, pricing/availability, age rating, privacy/support URLs, screenshots, App Privacy, review details, release option;
- for subscriptions, verify products and Terms/EULA link. Standard EULA: `https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/`.
4. Compliance preflight:
- production runtime config, legal URLs return 2xx/3xx, encryption/export compliance, privacy/tracking claims match code/SDKs.
5. Build/test/archive/export/upload:
- choose unique build numbe
