asc-release-flow – OpenClaw Skill

---

name: asc-release-flow description: End-to-end release workflows for TestFlight and App Store using asc publish, builds, versions, and submit commands. Use when asked to upload a build, distribute to TestFlight, or submit to App Store.

Release flow (TestFlight and App Store)

Use this skill when you need to get a new build into TestFlight or submit to the App Store.

Preconditions

• Ensure credentials are set (asc auth login or ASC_* env vars).
• Use a new build number for each upload.
• Prefer ASC_APP_ID or pass --app explicitly.

Preferred end-to-end commands

• TestFlight:
  • asc publish testflight --app <APP_ID> --ipa <PATH> --group <GROUP_ID>[,<GROUP_ID>]
  • Optional: --wait, --notify, --platform, --poll-interval, --timeout
• App Store:
  • asc publish appstore --app <APP_ID> --ipa <PATH> --version <VERSION>
  • Optional: --wait, --submit --confirm, --platform, --poll-interval, --timeout

Manual sequence (when you need more control)

1. Upload the build:
   • asc builds upload --app <APP_ID> --ipa <PATH>
2. Find the build ID if needed:
   • asc builds latest --app <APP_ID> [--version <VERSION>] [--platform <PLATFORM>]
3. TestFlight distribution:
   • asc builds add-groups --build <BUILD_ID> --group <GROUP_ID>[,<GROUP_ID>]
4. App Store attach + submit:
   • asc versions attach-build --version-id <VERSION_ID> --build <BUILD_ID>
   • asc submit create --app <APP_ID> --version <VERSION> --build <BUILD_ID> --confirm
5. Check or cancel submission:
   • asc submit status --id <SUBMISSION_ID> or --version-id <VERSION_ID>
   • asc submit cancel --id <SUBMISSION_ID> --confirm

Notes

• Always use --help to verify flags for the exact command.
• Use --output table / --output markdown for human-readable output; default is JSON.
