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
# Apple Search Ads for Indie Developers Plan, launch, and optimize Apple Search Ads campaigns that deliver profitable user acquisition for indie apps. ## When This Skill Activates Use this skill when the user: - Asks about paid user acquisition or running ads for their app - Mentions "Apple Search Ads", "Search Ads", or "ASA" - Wants to set up ad campaigns in the App Store - Asks about keyword bidding, CPT, or CPA optimization - Needs help with campaign structure or budget allocation - Wants to understand if paid acquisition makes sense for their app - Asks how to complement ASO with paid promotion ## Pre-Requisite Check: Are You Ready for Ads?

How to install
mdr add rshankras/claude-code-apple-skills/apple-search-ads@sha256:e8df02a21a001c41The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260716.32566aa, 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.
