Verify an Apple app is submission-ready and ship it — the FINAL App Store / Mac App Store step: confirm the content is already in place (signing, compliance, metadata, screenshots, app record), then archive, upload, complete the App Store Connect website steps, and submit. Use this when the user wants to release, publish, submit or upload an iOS or Mac build ("תעלה לאפסטור", "תשלח לבדיקה"), asks "how do I upload or submit to the App Store", or is at the end of the process and wants the verify…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Ship an Apple App — verify & submit

> **Conversational language:** talk to the user — questions, summaries, reports — in **the language the user writes in** — unless a `conversational language` is set in the hub `DATA.md` (`$APP_HUB/DATA.md`), which overrides it. This sets the *conversation* language only — content/deliverables follow the app's target locales.

This is the **final** step of the App Store / Mac App Store path. By the time you run
it, the content should already exist: signing set up, compliance passed, listing
metadata + screenshots produced, the app record created. **This skill does not
re-produce any of that** — it **verifies** each piece is ready, then **archives →
uploads → finishes on the App Store Connect website → submits**.

If a verification check fails, **hand off to the skill that owns that piece** to
produce it, then come back and re-verify. This skill owns only the ship itself
(build, upload, the website-only steps, submit).

## Prerequisites

- **Tools:** Xcode (`xcodebuild` archive/export, `xcrun altool`); `fastlane`
  (`gem install fastlane`) only if you archive with `gym` / `build_app`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add yybd/app-factory/ship-apple-app@sha256:93d5a58dec67725d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261014.83b3817, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
