PlayCraft — Claude Code Plugin

Automate every Google Play Store publishing task — store listings, ASO, release notes, policy declarations, and screenshot copy — all from Claude Code.

---

What It Does

1. Generates Play Store titles, short descriptions, and full descriptions — character limits enforced
2. Scores your ASO out of 30 and recommends keywords to add or remove
3. Writes release notes in plain user language, under 500 characters
4. Generates all required Play Console policy declarations — data safety, financial, AI content, families
5. Writes screenshot captions, alt text, and slot recommendations for up to 8 screenshots

Why This Exists

Play Store compliance had no repeatable structure. Each submission was manually reconstructed — listing copy format, release notes character limits, Data Safety section declarations. At fleet scale across 22+ apps, this was producing compliance gaps and inconsistent listing quality.

PlayCraft encodes the full Play Store submission workflow into structured commands. Every listing goes through the same format, the same character limit enforcement, the same ASO scoring pass. The compliance declarations checklist runs before every release. No manual reconstruction, no missed fields.

Install

Step 1 — Add the marketplace

/plugin marketplace add SUDARSHANCHAUDHARI/PlayCraft

Step 2 — Install the plugin

When you install, Claude Code prompts you for your developer details once (name, company, email, GitHub username, country, default locale). These are stored globally and used automatically in every project.

Troubleshooting

Commands say config is missing — Go to Claude Code Settings → Plugins → PlayCraft → Configure and fill in your developer details.

Character count exceeds limit — The listing-writer agent will catch this. If it doesn't, ask: "Rewrite the title to be under 30 characters."

Release notes over 500 characters — Ask: "Trim the release notes to under 500 characters, keep the most user-visible changes."
