AppMate

Open-standard Agent Skills for App Store Connect — a toolkit for indie developers that works in Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Goose, OpenCode, and 50+ other AI coding agents. Python data-layer scripts plus LLM-driven skills covering sales reporting, ASO optimization, ASO daily monitoring, competitor research, feature ideation, and growth strategy.

Design pattern: scripts do the deterministic data work (API calls, caching, rank lookups); the LLM does everything that needs semantic judgment (CJK / Latin tokenization of App Store metadata, candidate generation, strategy reasoning, report rendering). Each workflow involves you only at the start and the end.

The 7 skills are defined in standard SKILL.md format under skills/ — every compatible agent finds them automatically. Same files, same Python data layer, same reports. Only the invocation syntax differs by agent.

Install (any AI coding agent — recommended)

One command, works for Cursor, Codex, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Goose, OpenCode, Cline, and 40+ more:

npx skills add fengyiqicoder/AppMate

Then install the Python data-layer dependencies (PyJWT + cryptography + requests):

pip install -r requirements.txt

Trigger any skill by natural language — say "跑日报" / "run my sales report" / "优化 ASO" and the agent will match the request against each skill's description and pick the right one. No slash commands needed.

See skills.sh and agentskills.io for the full agent compatibility matrix.

Install (Claude Code)

Two steps, run them one at a time inside Claude Code — wait for step 1 to finish before pasting step 2.

Step 1 — register this repo as a plugin marketplace:

/plugin marketplace add fengyiqicoder/AppMate

Wait until Claude Code confirms the marketplace was added.

Step 2 — install the appmate plugin from that marketplace:

/plugin install appmate@appmate-marketplace

That's the whole install. The plugin pulls itself from GitHub, registers the seven /appmate-* slash commands, and loads the seven skills.

Then install the Python data-layer dependencies (App Store Connect API client uses PyJWT + cryptography + requests):

# in the plugin repo directory that Claude Code cloned for you
pip install -r requirements.txt

To find that directory, run /plugin inside Claude Code and look at the path next to appmate. The default is ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/appmate-marketplace/plugins/appmate/.

Python: tested on 3.10+. No virtualenv required — the three dependencies are tiny.

Install (Codex CLI)

Two steps, run them one at a time inside Codex CLI — wait for step 1 to finish before running step 2.

Step 1 — register this repo as a plugin marketplace:

codex plugin marketplace add fengyiqicoder/appmate

Wait until Codex confirms the marketplace was added.

Step 2 — install the appmate plugin from that marketplace:

codex plugin install appmate

Codex pulls the repo, reads .codex-plugin/plugin.json, and registers all seven skills. There are no slash commands on Codex — Codex deprecated custom prompts in favor of skills. Invoke a skill either explicitly ($sales-daily-report, $aso-optimize Sticky Note Pro) or by asking in natural language ("跑下今天的销量日报", "帮我优化 Sticky Note Pro 的 ASO") — Codex matches against each skill's description frontmatter to route the request.

Install the Python data-layer dependencies the same way:

# in the plugin repo directory Codex cloned for you, default ~/.codex/plugins/appmate/
pip install -r requirements.txt

The repo also ships an AGENTS.md at the root, so running codex inside a clone of the repo (without going through the marketplace) also works — Codex auto-loads the agent context and finds skills under skills/.

What's different vs Claude Code

Aspect	Claude Code	Codex CLI
Invocation	/appmate-sales, /appmate-aso-optimize Sticky Note Pro	$sales-daily-report, $aso-optimize Sticky Note Pro, or natural language
Skills	skills/ (7 SKILL.md, same files)	skills/ (7 SKILL.md, same files)
Credentials gate	Inline in each skill's Step 0	Inline in each skill's Step 0 (same)
Reports	Identical	Identical
Setup walkthrough	/appmate-setup	$appmate-setup or "set up AppMate"

Wherever a SKILL.md says "run /appmate-setup", on Codex that means "invoke the appmate-setup skill" — same workflow, different invocation syntax.
