What it does

rabdulsal/appstore-release-mcp is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that fully automates the App Store release workflow for iOS and macOS applications. It orchestrates the entire release pipeline including version bumping, app archiving, code signing, TestFlight beta distribution, and App Store metadata updates. Unlike traditional REST-only ASC (App Store Connect) servers, this tool handles asynchronous job processing with real-time log polling, enabling complex multi-step workflows that would otherwise require manual intervention.

How to set up

As an MCP server, integration involves: 1) Installing the server from the GitHub repository, 2) Configuring your fastlane environment and credentials for App Store Connect access, 3) Setting up your existing fastlane lanes that handle the actual build and signing operations, 4) Connecting the MCP server to your Claude instance or compatible AI platform, 5) Testing the connection to verify async job processing and log polling capabilities.
