Create Revenuecat Project

RevenueCat Project Bootstrap

Guide through setting up a complete RevenueCat project from scratch.

Instructions

Important: Use the RevenueCat MCP server for all tool calls. The MCP server may have access to multiple projects. Always use list-projects first to retrieve all accessible projects. If multiple projects are returned, ask the user which project to use or if they want to create a new one.

Phase 1: Discovery

Ask targeted questions to understand the developer's needs:

1. Platforms — "Which platforms are you building for?" (iOS, Android, Web, or multiple) 2. Business Model — "What type of monetization are you planning?" (subscriptions, one-time purchases, consumables, or a mix) 3. Subscription Tiers (if applicable) — "What subscription options do you want to offer?" (common: Monthly + Annual, single tier, Freemium + Premium) 4. App Details — Bundle ID (iOS, e.g. com.company.appname), package name (Android), and display name

Phase 2: Create Resources

Execute in this order — dependencies matter.

1. Verify/Create Project list-projects - list accessible projects If multiple: ask user which to use, or offer to create a new one To create a new project, use the create-project MCP tool Store project_id for all subsequent calls

2. Create Apps (for each platform):

• For mobile apps, ask if the user already has set up their app in App Store Connect / Google Play Console. If so, create an app using the create-app tool (type: app_store | play_store). If not, use the automatically generated test_store app and tell the user that they can set up the integration with App Store Connect / Google Play Console later.
• For web apps, create-app with type rc_billing

3. Create Products (for each subscription/purchase): create-product tool

4. Create Entitlements (for each feature/access level): create-entitlement tool

5. Attach Products to Entitlements: attach-products-to-entitlement tool

6. Create Default Offering: create-offering tool (lookup_key: "default")

7. Create Packages in Offering: create-package tool (for subscriptions, use $rc_monthly, $rc_annual, etc.)

8. Attach Products to Packages: attach-products-to-package tool

9. Get API Keys: list-app-public-api-keys tool

Phase 3: Summary & Next Steps

Provide a complete setup summary:

Project Setup Complete!
=======================

Project: {project_name} ({project_id})

Apps Created:
  iOS: {app_name} - API Key: appl_xxxxx
  Android: {app_name} - API Key: goog_xxxxx

Products:
  - monthly_premium (subscription, P1M)
  - annual_premium (subscription, P1Y)

Entitlements:
  - premium → monthly_premium, annual_premium

Offering: default (current)
  └── $rc_monthly → monthly_premium
  └── $rc_annual → annual_premium

Next Steps:
1. Configure store credentials in RevenueCat dashboard
2. Create products in App Store Connect / Play Console
3. Add SDK to your app (see /rc:create-app)
4. Implement paywall UI using the "default" offering

Error Handling

If any step fails: 1. Report the specific error clearly 2. Suggest fixes (e.g., "Bundle ID may already be in use") 3. Offer to retry or skip that step 4. Continue with remaining steps if possible
