What it does

Web Presence is an agent skill from rshankras/claude-code-apple-skills. The discovery surfaces outside the App Store app — your apps.apple.com product page ranking on Google, an owned landing page with a Smart App Banner, and the deal-site ecosystem that auto-amplifies price drops. Use when building a landing page, improving Google visibility for an app, planning a price-drop promotion, or auditing off-store discovery.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k 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 Frontend & Design, covering App store release and Landing pages. The repository describes itself as: Claude Code skills for Apple platform development (iOS, macOS, iPadOS) — product validation, code generation, App Store optimization, and more. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Building a landing page
  • Improving Google visibility for an app
  • Planning a price-drop promotion
  • Auditing off-store discovery

Example prompts

  • “/web-presence”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Glob, Grep

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9ffb831. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Write
    • Edit
    • Glob
    • Grep

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are html).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • developer.apple.com
    • tools.applemediaservices.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Web Presence loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 91 tokens; SKILL.md has 541 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~91
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k

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.

Safety

Auto-check passed

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.

Web Presence

Every app has a public web page at apps.apple.com that ranks in Google — most developers never work that surface. Pair it with an owned landing page and the deal-site ecosystem and the open web becomes a free acquisition channel that compounds with everything on-store.

When This Skill Activates

  • "Make my app findable on Google" / no results for the app's own name
  • Building or reviewing a product landing page
  • Planning a temporary price drop or sale
  • The store-growth audit flags P6.6 (web presence) or P7.5 (deal sites)

Surface 1: The apps.apple.com page is a Google citizen

The store page's Google snippet draws from your app name, subtitle, and description opening — one more reason the first description paragraph must be benefit-led plain language (see app-store/app-description-writer).

  • ✅ Search your app's name + category terms on Google periodically; if the store page doesn't rank for your own brand, something is wrong (usually a generic name — see product/app-namer).
  • ✅ Ratings, price, and In-App Purchase labels appear in the snippet — per-storefront ratings mechanics apply (app-store/ratings-mechanics).
  • ❌ Treating the store URL as un-shareable internal plumbing. It's often your best-ranking page; link to it from everywhere (with ?pt= provider token for attribution where you need source data).

Surface 2: An owned landing page + Smart App Banner

One page, one job: convert a web visitor into a store visitor.

  • Structure: name + one-line promise → 2–3 screenshots or a short capture → social proof → a prominent Download on the App Store badge (Apple's official artwork, linked with your attribution token).

  • Smart App Banner — one meta tag; Safari renders a native install/open banner:

    html
    <meta name="apple-itunes-app" content="app-id=YOUR_APP_ID, app-argument=https://yourapp.com/from-web">

    ✅ The banner shows Open for installed users — deep-linking into the app, down to specific in-app content via app-argument — and View for everyone else, opening the App Store in one tap. ❌ Custom "download our app" interstitials — the native banner already does this for free.

  • App Store Marketing Tools (tools.applemediaservices.com) — use for referral links, QR codes, and localized badge assets instead of hand-rolling them.

  • The landing page is also where pre-launch waitlists live (TestFlight public link — see product/beta-testing) and where press/link-in-bio traffic should land, because you can measure it before it enters the store funnel.

  • App Clips can front the landing page with an instant experience (generators/app-clip).

Surface 3: The deal-site ecosystem

Deal aggregators scrape App Store price drops automatically — no submission needed, just drop the price.

Price drop → aggregator listing → download spike → chart climb → organic downloads that outlive the sale. Velocity is the product; the discounted revenue is the cost of the campaign.

  • ✅ Drop meaningfully (50%+ or free-for-a-day reads as a deal; 10% doesn't scrape well).
  • ✅ Time drops to compound: with an in-app event, a seasonal moment, or the announced On-Sale badge surface (see generators/in-app-events), and have the next release ready so climbers land on a fresh listing.
  • ✅ Prompt for ratings during the spike window — sale users rate too, and the count sticks after prices recover.
  • ❌ Permanent-discount theater (always "90% off") — scrapers and users both learn to ignore it, and review teams notice manipulated anchor pricing.
  • ❌ Dropping the price of a subscription app's download — use offer codes instead (generators/offer-codes-setup).

Output Format

Audit report:

Google: brand query rank · store-page snippet quality (name/subtitle/desc opener)
Landing page: live? banner tag? attribution token? waitlist path?
Deal readiness: pricing model compatible? last drop + result? next planned window?

Each gap routed: copy fixes → app-store/app-description-writer; page build → this skill; price-drop plan → this skill + monetization pricing.
