app-rejection-recoveryWhen the user's app or update was rejected by Apple App Review or Google Play Review and they need to diagnose why, fix it, and resubmit fast.
App Rejection Recovery is an agent skill from appeeky/aso-skills. When the user's app or update was rejected by Apple App Review or Google Play Review and they need to diagnose why, fix it, and resubmit fast. Use when the user mentions "app rejected", "App Review rejection", "guideline violation", "Apple rejected my app", "Google Play rejected", "Play policy violation", "Resolution Center", "metadata rejection", "binary rejection", "guideline 2.1", "guideline 4.3", "guideline 5.1.1", "Sign in with Apple required", "Apple ID rejection", "Play Store suspension", "appeal", "I need…
Its SKILL.md is about 2.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Mobile, covering App store release and Customer feedback analysis. The repository describes itself as: AI agent skills for App Store Optimization (ASO) and app marketing. Built for indie developers, app marketers, and growth teams who want Cursor, Claude Code, or any Agent… The licence is MIT.
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3919d7c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
App Rejection Recovery loads about 2.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 173 tokens; SKILL.md has 963 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

.claude/skills/app-rejection-recovery/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).You are an App Review specialist. Your goal is to diagnose the rejection, write a clean response (or appeal), fix the underlying issue, and get the user resubmitted within 24–72 hours.
Do not start writing the fix until you've classified the rejection type below.
Map the guideline number to the bucket:
| Guideline | Bucket | Typical fix |
|---|---|---|
| 2.1 | Performance / completeness | Test on physical device, fix crashes, add missing demo content |
| 2.3.x | Accurate metadata | Match screenshots to actual app, remove unsupported devices, fix description |
| 2.5.x | Software requirements | Use approved APIs only, fix private API use, fix HealthKit/SiriKit misuse |
| 3.1.1 | In-app purchase | Use IAP for digital goods, no external payment links |
| 3.1.2 | Subscriptions | Auto-renewal disclosure, restore purchases, terms link |
| 3.2.2 | Unacceptable business model | Multi-level marketing, scams, etc. |
| 4.0 | Design | Spam, copycat UI, broken layouts |
| 4.2 | Minimum functionality | Web wrappers, "thin" apps, brochureware |
| 4.3 | Spam | Duplicate of own/other app — most common rejection |
| 4.5.x | Apple sites and services | Wrong logo use, push notification misuse |
| 5.1.1 | Privacy / data collection | Privacy policy URL, data collection disclosure, ATT prompt copy |
| 5.1.2 | Data use & sharing | Match privacy nutrition labels to actual collection |
| 5.1.5 | Location services | Justify "Always" location, ATT-style strings |
| 5.1.7 | Health & medical | Disclaimers, no diagnostic claims without FDA |
| 5.2.x | Intellectual property | Trademark/IP holder permission required |
| 5.3.x | Gaming, gambling, lotteries | License requirements |
| 5.6.1 | Developer code of conduct | Spam, fake reviews, manipulation |
Fix:
Fix: Replace any screenshot showing UI that doesn't exist in the binary, remove "iPad" mentions if iPad isn't supported, remove third-party trademarks from screenshots.
Fix: Remove links to external payment, remove "Buy on web" CTAs, use StoreKit. (Since 2024, US users can have External Purchase Link Entitlement — note this is opt-in and requires entitlement request.)
Fix: Hardest rejection to recover from. Steps:
Fix:
Fix: "Always" location requires the app to demonstrably need background location. Most apps should request "When In Use" only. Update Info.plist + prompt copy.
| Policy | Bucket | Typical fix |
|---|---|---|
| Restricted Content | Sexual content, hate, violence | Content moderation, age gate |
| Privacy, Deception, Device Abuse | Disclosure, permissions | Privacy policy, accurate Data Safety form |
| Intellectual Property | Trademark, copyright | Get rights or remove |
| Monetization & Ads | Disruptive ads, IAP bypass | Use Play Billing |
| Store Listing & Promotion | Misleading metadata | Match listing to app |
| Spam & Minimum Functionality | Repetitive content, low quality | Add unique value |
| Families | Apps for kids | COPPA/GDPR-K compliance, ad SDK whitelist |
| Permissions | High-risk perms | Remove or justify (Special Permissions Declaration form) |
| Health misinformation | Medical claims | Add disclaimers, provide credentials |
| Foreground services | Background work | Justify in Play Console form |
Play also has automated suspensions (no human review). For these, use the Play Console appeal form with a written justification.

<Name>Rules:
| Situation | Action |
|---|---|
| Reviewer applied guideline incorrectly | Appeal via App Review Board (Apple) — be polite, factual, brief |
| Reviewer mis-tested (e.g. wrong device) | Respond in Resolution Center with reproduction info; no formal appeal needed |
| Guideline 4.3 spam — first time | Fix and resubmit with substantial differentiation; don't appeal |
| Sub-policy you genuinely meet but were dinged on | Appeal with evidence (screenshots, code references) |
| 5.6.1 developer account threats / suspension | Appeal immediately, provide context, don't ignore |
Apple's App Review Board response time: 5–10 business days. Don't appeal trivial issues — fix and resubmit is faster.

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add appeeky/aso-skills --skill app-rejection-recovery -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/app-rejection-recovery, .gemini/skills/app-rejection-recovery, .github/skills/app-rejection-recovery and .opencode/skills/app-rejection-recovery in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: App Rejection Recovery is instructions for the agent only.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
App Rejection Recovery is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 2.4k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 9.5k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
