asc-testflight-orchestration is an asc CLI skill for TestFlight groups, testers, build distribution, and What to Test notes.

About

The asc-testflight-orchestration skill guides TestFlight beta distribution with the asc CLI for groups, testers, builds, and What to Test localizations. It starts by exporting current config to YAML with optional builds and testers included, then documents listing and creating groups, adding and inviting testers by email, and attaching or removing builds from groups by ID. What to Test notes are created or updated per build locale with whats-new text. Commands emphasize paginate for large lists and prefer stable IDs over names, pointing to the asc-id-resolver skill when human-friendly names must be mapped. Distribution examples use asc builds add-groups and remove-groups with confirm flags. The skill targets teams rolling out betas who need repeatable CLI workflows instead of manual App Store Connect UI steps. It assumes an APP_ID is known or resolvable and that build and group IDs are used for deterministic attach and detach operations across environments.

  • Export TestFlight config to YAML with optional builds and testers.
  • Create groups, list testers, add emails, and send invites via asc.
  • Attach or remove builds from groups using build-id and group-id.
  • Create and update What to Test notes per build locale.
  • Use --paginate on large lists; prefer IDs from asc-id-resolver.
