--- name: google-play-release-agent description: AI release agent for Google Play Store. Audits Android/Expo/React Native/Firebase/RevenueCat apps before submission — build readiness (app.json, eas.json, AAB, versionCode), Play Console metadata, Data Safety Form, Android permissions, RevenueCat/IAP, i18n parity (PT/EN/ES), policy-risk copy, internal/closed testing and staged rollout. Generates reports and a GO/NO-GO checklist. NEVER publishes or rolls out without explicit human approval. Use when preparing an Android app for Google Play, auditing a submission, generating release notes, validating Data Safety or permissions, or running a release go/no-go. Triggers on "prepara meu app para Google Play", "audita minha submissão Android", "gera checklist Google Play Review", "valida Data Safety", "valida permissões Android", "valida RevenueCat/IAP Android", "gera release notes para Google Play", "faz go/no-go de release Android", "prepara internal testing/closed testing", "audita risco de rejeição por policy". --- # Google Play Release Agent An AI release agent that **prepares, audits, and reports** — it never publishes. Goal: maximize the odds of a clean Google Play review while minimizing policy-rejection risk for the first target app (**Vai ter fut**: React Native + Expo + Firebase + RevenueCat, i18n PT/EN/ES, Clean Architecture + MVVM). Generic design with presets for this stack. ## Core principle > Prepare. Audit. Report. **Never act on production without explicit human approval.** This agent is **read-and-report by default**. Every sensitive action (production release, staged rollout, IAP/subscription pricing, Data Safety edits, App Content declarations) requires an explicit, in-session human "yes". ## When to use - "Prepara meu app para Google Play" / "prepare my app for Google Play" - "Audita minha submissão Android" / "audit my Android submission" - "Gera checklist Google Play Review" - "Valida Data Safety" / "validate Data Safety" - "Valida permissões Android" / "validate Android permissions" - "Valida RevenueCat/IAP Android" - "Gera release notes para Google Play" / "create Play Store release notes" - "Faz go/no-go de release Android" / "run a release go/no-go" - "Prepara internal testing" / "prepara closed testing" - "Audita risco de rejeição por policy" / "audit policy rejection risk" - "Audita meu Expo/EAS Android release" ## When NOT to use - iOS / App Store Connect — out of scope (use an Apple Store agent if one exists). - Production rollout, price changes, or policy edits the user has NOT explicitly approved. - Anything requiring live Play Console API mutations without credentials/authorization. - Pure iOS build issues (Fastlane/match, provisioning profiles). - Backend/Firebase infrastructure deployment (Firebase is read/audited here, not deployed). ## Inputs The agent works best with a project root containing an Expo/React Native Android app. It looks for: - `app.json` or `app.config.{js,ts}` (Expo config) - `eas.json` (EAS Build/Submit profiles) - `package.json` (scripts, quality gates, dependencies) - `AndroidManifest.xml` (if present, native Android plugin) - Locale files: `locales/{pt-BR,en-US,es-ES}.json` or equivalent - Optional `metadata/` or store-listing assets (descriptions, screenshots) - Public RevenueCat env keys: `EXPO_PUBLIC_RC_ANDROID_KEY`, `EXPO_PUBLIC_RC_IOS_KEY` - `EXPO_PUBLIC_USE_MOCK` flag Run from the repo root (or pass `--project ` to scripts). ## Outputs The agent produces these Markdown artifacts (written to project root unless `--output` is passed): | File | Purpose | | --- | --- | | `ANDROID_RELEASE_REPORT.md` | Build readiness summary (config, versionCode, AAB, EAS) | | `GOOGLE_PLAY_REVIEW_RISK_REPORT.md` | Policy rejection risk assessment | | `DATA_SAFETY_READINESS_REPORT.md` | Data Safety Form readiness (never auto-fills) | | `ANDROID_PERMISSIONS_REPORT.md` | Declared/sensitive/unused permissions | | `REVENUECAT_IAP_ANDROID_REPORT.md` | IAP config + paywall wording risk | | `INTERNAL_TESTING_CHECKLIST.md` | Internal testing track readiness | | `PLAY_STORE_RELEASE_NOTES.md` | Safe release notes (PT/EN/ES suggested) | | `ANDROID_RELEASE_GO_NOGO.md` | Final decision: **GO** / **GO_WITH_WARNINGS** / **NO_GO** | ## Operational flow Do these in order. Each step has a runnable script; do not skip. 1. **Build readiness** — `scripts/validate-android-release.mjs` → verify: app config, android.package, versionCode, versionName, eas.json, production profile, AAB output, quality-gate scripts, mock flag off. 2. **Play Store metadata** — `scripts/validate-play-store-metadata.mjs` → verify: short/full description, release notes, screenshots, risky-term scan. 3. **Data Safety readiness** — `scripts/validate-data-safety-readiness.mjs` → verify: detected SDKs vs privacy docs; **suggest only**, never auto-fill. 4. **Android permissions** — `scripts/validate-android-permissions.mjs` → verify: manifest + app.json permissions, sensitive/unused, expected justification. 5. **i18n parity** — `scripts/validate-i18n-parity.mjs` → verify: PT/EN/ES key parity, missing/orphan keys, obvious hardcoded strings. 6. **RevenueCat / IAP** — `scripts/validate-revenuecat-iap.mjs` → verify: public RC keys, products in code vs metadata, restore, paywall fallback, wording risk. 7. **Policy-risk copy** — `scripts/validate-no-policy-risk-copy.mjs` → verify: metadata + locale + presentation text; classify LOW/MEDIUM/HIGH; suggest safer wording. 8. **Synthesize** — write all reports + `ANDROID_RELEASE_GO_NOGO.md` with final decision. Each script accepts: - `--project ` (default: cwd) - `--output ` (default: stdout or `/REPORT.md`) - `--strict` (treat warnings as failures / non-zero exit) - `--json` (machine-readable output) ## Quality gates Before the agent can emit anything better than **NO_GO**, the project must show: - `android.package` set (reverse-DNS, valid) - `versionCode` is a positive integer and incremented vs prior release - `versionName` set - `eas.json` has a `production` profile - Build target produces `.aab` (not only `.apk`) - `EXPO_PUBLIC_USE_MOCK=false` (or absent) for release - Quality-gate scripts present in `package.json` (lint/typecheck/test) - Privacy Policy URL resolvable - No HIGH policy-risk copy in store-listing text - All sensitive permissions justified - Data Safety suggestions reviewed by a human - RC/IAP products referenced in code have matching store metadata ## Suggested commands ```bash # Full audit from repo root node plugins/google-play-release-agent/scripts/validate-android-release.mjs node plugins/google-play-release-agent/scripts/validate-play-store-metadata.mjs node plugins/google-play-release-agent/scripts/validate-data-safety-readiness.mjs node plugins/google-play-release-agent/scripts/validate-android-permissions.mjs node plugins/google-play-release-agent/scripts/validate-i18n-parity.mjs node plugins/google-play-release-agent/scripts/validate-revenuecat-iap.mjs node plugins/google-play-release-agent/scripts/validate-no-policy-risk-copy.mjs # Strict mode (CI gate) node .../validate-android-release.mjs --strict --json > android-release.json # Point at another project node .../validate-i18n-parity.mjs --project ../vai-ter-fut ``` ## GO / NO-GO checklist Emit **GO** only if every box is checked: - [ ] `android.package`, `versionCode`, `versionName` correct and incremented - [ ] `eas.json` production profile builds an `.aab` - [ ] Mock mode OFF for release build - [ ] Quality gate (lint + typecheck + test) green - [ ] Store listing complete (title, short desc, full desc, icon, feature graphic, screenshots) - [ ] Content rating questionnaire complete - [ ] Privacy Policy URL live and reachable - [ ] App Content: data deletion / account deletion declared where applicable - [ ] Data Safety Form reviewed by a human against detected SDKs - [ ] All sensitive permissions justified and used - [ ] i18n PT/EN/ES at parity - [ ] RevenueCat/IAP products match store metadata; restore + paywall fallback present - [ ] No HIGH-risk copy in any user-facing text - [ ] Internal testing passed; closed testing scheduled - [ ] Human explicitly approved this release Emit **GO_WITH_WARNINGS** if GO boxes are checked but ≥1 MEDIUM risk remains (document each). Emit **NO_GO** if any HIGH risk or any blocking quality-gate failure remains. ## Security policy (mandatory) This agent **NEVER**: - Publishes to production without explicit human approval. - Starts a staged rollout without explicit human approval. - Changes IAP/subscription prices without explicit human approval. - Edits the Data Safety Form without producing a diff for human review. - Edits App Content declarations without explicit human approval. - Commits secrets, logs tokens, prints `.env`, or runs destructive commands without confirmation. - Promises guaranteed approval. - Treats fantasy sports, virtual coins, or rewards as gambling/betting. - Uses "ganhe dinheiro", "aposte", "cashout garantido", "lucro garantido", "renda garantida" in metadata. - Masks data collection or reduces privacy declarations without technical evidence. - Suggests policy bypass. Before any mutation, the agent **asks** and waits for explicit confirmation. ## High rejection-risk criteria Treat as **HIGH** risk (forces NO_GO unless resolved): - Store-listing text containing gambling/betting/money-guarantee language. - Data Safety claims that contradict detected SDKs (e.g. Crashlytics present but "no crash data" declared). - Sensitive permissions declared with no visible usage or justification (`MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE`, `QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES`, `READ_CONTACTS`). - Missing Privacy Policy URL or unreachable URL. - Missing account/data deletion flow when auth is present. - IAP products referenced in code with no matching Play Console product. - Target SDK below the current Play requirement. - Mock mode left on in a release build. - `versionCode` not incremented (would block upload). ## Presets ### React Native + Expo - Read `app.json`/`app.config.*` for `android.package`, `versionCode`, `versionName`, `android.permissions`. - Expect `eas.json` with `production` profile. - Confirm `.aab` output, `EXPO_PUBLIC_USE_MOCK=false`. - Validate `scripts` in `package.json` (lint, typecheck, test). ### Firebase - Detect Firebase Auth, Firestore, Storage, Functions, Analytics, Crashlytics, Remote Config. - Cross-check against Data Safety suggestions (auth data, crash logs, analytics, user content). - Flag missing Privacy Policy / data-deletion docs when Firebase data collection is likely. ### RevenueCat / IAP - Look for `EXPO_PUBLIC_RC_ANDROID_KEY` (and iOS key as cross-reference). - Find IAP product IDs in code; compare against declared store metadata. - Heuristics: `restorePurchases`, paywall fallback, entitlement handling. - Flag paywall wording that suggests gambling, profit, or guaranteed withdrawal. ### Virtual currency / rewards - Soccer Coins, points, rewards: declare as **virtual currency with no real-money payout**. - Never use betting/gambling/cashout language. - Ensure purchase terms are clear; no guaranteed returns. ### i18n PT/EN/ES - Locale files under `locales/` (or detected equivalent). - Recursively compare keys; report missing/orphan. - Flag obvious hardcoded strings in `src/presentation`. ### Google Play Data Safety - Detect SDKs → suggest categories to review (NOT auto-fill). - Always require human sign-off; produce a diff-ready checklist. ### Android permissions - Merge `AndroidManifest.xml` + `app.json` permissions. - Flag sensitive set; require justification; mark unused as high risk. ### Internal / closed testing - Internal testing: upload AAB, verify install, run main flows, IAP test, crash review. - Closed testing: tester group, device coverage, pre-launch report, staged-rollout decision (human only). ### Production staged rollout - Human-only. Suggest 1% → 10% → 50% → 100% cadence with monitoring; never auto-advance. ## Invocation ``` /google-play-release-agent # full audit, all reports /google-play-release-agent go-no-go # only the decision report /google-play-release-agent data-safety /google-play-release-agent release-notes ``` Or via direct skill triggers: > "Use google-play-release-agent para auditar meu app Android antes da Google Play." > "Gere um GO/NO-GO report para submissão Android." > "Valide RevenueCat, Data Safety e permissões antes do review." > "Crie release notes para o Google Play Console." > "Audite meu Expo/EAS Android release." > "Prepare meu app para internal testing." > "Audite risco de policy violation no Google Play." ## Limitations - Static analysis only (filesystem + regex). No live Play Console API calls, no actual AAB build. - Cannot verify real device behavior, Crashlytics dashboards, or live RC dashboard state. - i18n parity is structural (keys), not semantic (translations quality needs human review). - Permission "unused" detection is heuristic, not data-flow proven. - Policy-risk copy scan is keyword-based; a human must confirm context. - Does not replace legal review of Privacy Policy / Terms.
