What is the App Store Connect MCP server?

Connect App Store Connect to Claude, Cursor or any other MCP client and it stops being a tab you switch to. A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for interacting with the App Store Connect API. This server provides tools for managing apps, beta testers, bundle IDs, devices, app metadata, and capabilities in App Store Connect. The app store connect mcp server is what makes that connection.

What the server does

The App Store Connect MCP Server is a comprehensive tool that bridges the gap between AI and Apple's App Store Connect ecosystem. Built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), this server enables developers to interact with their App Store Connect data directly through conversational AI, making app management, beta testing, and analytics more accessible than ever.

  • App Management —
  • List all apps
  • Get detailed app information
  • View app metadata and relationships
  • Beta Testing —
  • List beta groups

Available tools

The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:

  • macOS — The macOS tool exposed by this server
  • Windows — The Windows tool exposed by this server
  • list_apps — The list_apps tool exposed by this server
  • get_app_info — The get_app_info tool exposed by this server
  • list_beta_groups — The list_beta_groups tool exposed by this server
  • list_group_testers — The list_group_testers tool exposed by this server
  • add_tester_to_group — The add_tester_to_group tool exposed by this server
  • remove_tester_from_group — The remove_tester_from_group tool exposed by this server
  • list_beta_feedback_screenshots — The list_beta_feedback_screenshots tool exposed by this server
  • get_beta_feedback_screenshot — Get detailed information about a specific beta feedback screenshot
  • create_app_store_version — The create_app_store_version tool exposed by this server
  • list_app_store_versions — The list_app_store_versions tool exposed by this server

Credentials and setup notes

Configuration is passed through the environment: APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEY_ID, APP_STORE_CONNECT_ISSUER_ID, APP_STORE_CONNECT_P8_PATH, APP_STORE_CONNECT_VENDOR_NUMBER, YOUR_KEY_ID, YOUR_ISSUER_ID. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.

Installation

Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at @smithery/cli on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.

Where it fits

This sits in the browser automation group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. App Store Connect's toolset — macOS, Windows, list_apps and 11 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by JoshuaRileyDev; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

This entry was verified against App Store Connect's own documentation before publication; SyncDev keeps the directory reviewed rather than auto-generated.

Worth knowing first

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • With 14 tools registered it takes up a noticeable share of the context window; turn it off in projects that never touch App Store Connect.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.

Frequently asked questions
