Play Store Publish

You are in AUTONOMOUS MODE. Do NOT ask questions. Do NOT pause for confirmation. Execute every phase below in sequence, making decisions based on what you find.

============================================================ PHASE 0 — INPUT

$ARGUMENTS may contain:

• A specific focus: signing, metadata, internal, rollout, data-safety, fastlane
• --first-upload — include extra guidance for first-time Play Store submissions
• If no arguments, configure the complete publishing pipeline

============================================================ PHASE 1 — PROJECT ASSESSMENT

1. Detect the Android project:

   • Look for build.gradle.kts, build.gradle, or settings.gradle.kts
   • If Flutter: look for pubspec.yaml and android/ directory
   • If React Native: look for android/ directory
   • Read applicationId, versionCode, versionName from build config
   • Check for existing Fastlane configuration (fastlane/ directory)

2. Assess signing status:

   • Check for existing keystore files (*.jks, *.keystore)
   • Check build.gradle for signingConfigs
   • Determine if Play App Signing is enabled

3. Assess bundle configuration:

   • Verify AAB (Android App Bundle) is configured, not APK
   • Check for split APK / dynamic feature module configuration
   • Review minSdk, targetSdk, and compileSdk versions

============================================================ PHASE 2 — SIGNING KEY MANAGEMENT

Upload key generation:

• Generate keytool command for creating upload keystore (RSA 2048, 10000 day validity)
• Configure signing in app/build.gradle.kts using environment variables (never hardcoded)
• Document Play App Signing enrollment (strongly recommended — Google manages app signing key, you manage upload key only)

Security:

• Add to .gitignore: *.jks, *.keystore, key.properties
• Generate key.properties template with empty values
• Document that if upload key is compromised, Google can reset it without affecting users

============================================================ PHASE 3 — AAB CONFIGURATION

Ensure Android App Bundle is properly configured:

• Enable splits: language, density, ABI
• Enable R8 minification and resource shrinking for release builds
• Configure ProGuard/R8 rules to preserve:
  • Retrofit API interfaces and DTOs
  • Room entities and DAOs
  • Serialization models (Gson, Moshi, Kotlinx)
  • Firebase classes
  • Any reflection-based code

============================================================ PHASE 4 — FASTLANE CONFIGURATION

Generate fastlane/Fastfile with these lanes:

Generate fastlane/Appfile with json_key_file and package_name references.

All signing credentials passed via environment variables, never hardcoded.

============================================================ PHASE 5 — PLAY CONSOLE SERVICE ACCOUNT

Document the Google Play Console API setup:

1. Create a Google Cloud project linked to Play Console
2. Enable the Google Play Android Developer API
3. Create a service account with Editor role
4. Download the JSON key file
5. Grant the service account access in Play Console (Settings > API access)
6. Required permissions: Release management, Store presence editing

Generate fastlane/.env.default template with placeholder values. Add to .gitignore: fastlane/play-store-key.json, fastlane/.env

============================================================ PHASE 6 — STORE LISTING METADATA

Generate fastlane/metadata/android/en-US/ directory structure:

• title.txt (max 30 chars) — primary keyword + brand
• short_description.txt (max 80 chars) — strongest value proposition
• full_description.txt (max 4000 chars) — structure: value prop, key features, social proof, CTA. First 5 lines visible before "Read more". Include relevant keywords naturally.
• changelogs/default.txt — release notes template

Image requirements:

• phoneScreenshots/ — 2-8 phone screenshots required
• sevenInchScreenshots/ — 7" tablet screenshots
• tenInchScreenshots/ — 10" tablet screenshots
• featureGraphic.png — 1024x500 required
• icon.png — 512x512 hi-res icon

============================================================ PHASE 7 — DATA SAFETY FORM

Analyze the app's actual data collection and generate a data safety response template:

Check for:

• Analytics SDKs (Firebase Analytics, Amplitude, Mixpanel)
• Crash reporting (Crashlytics, Sentry)
• Ad SDKs (AdMob, Unity Ads)
• Auth providers and what user data they collect
• Network calls to identify data sent to servers

============================================================ PHASE 8 — CONTENT RATING

Generate content rating questionnaire guidance based on app analysis:

• Violence, sexual content, language, controlled substances
• User interaction (can users communicate?)
• Personal information sharing
• Ad content

Recommend the expected IARC rating based on findings.

============================================================ PHASE 9 — STAGED ROLLOUT STRATEGY

Document how to: pause, resume, halt, and rollback a staged rollout.

============================================================ SELF-HEALING VALIDATION (max 2 iterations)

After completing deployment/infrastructure changes, validate:

1. Verify all generated files are syntactically valid (YAML, JSON, HCL, Dockerfile).
2. Run validation commands if available (terraform validate, docker build --check, kubectl dry-run).
3. Verify no secrets, credentials, or sensitive values are hardcoded.
4. If validation fails, diagnose and fix the specific syntax or config error.
5. Repeat up to 2 iterations.

IF STILL FAILING after 2 iterations:

• Document what failed and the exact error
• Include partial output if available

============================================================ OUTPUT

## Play Store Publishing Pipeline Complete

### Signing
- Upload Key: {generated / existing}
- Play App Signing: {enabled / not enrolled}
- Package Name: {detected applicationId}

### Fastlane Lanes
| Lane | Action | Trigger |
|------|--------|---------|
| test | Run unit tests | Pre-flight |
| internal | Build AAB + upload to internal | Merge to develop |
| beta | Promote internal to beta | Manual |
| release | Promote beta to production (10%) | Tag on main |
| increase_rollout | Increase production rollout | Manual |

### Metadata Status
| File | Status | Notes |
|------|--------|-------|
| title.txt | {READY / TEMPLATE} | max 30 chars |
| full_description.txt | {READY / TEMPLATE} | max 4000 chars |
| screenshots | {PRESENT / NEEDED} | 2-8 phone required |
| featureGraphic.png | {PRESENT / NEEDED} | 1024x500 required |

### Data Safety
| Data Type | Collected | Shared | Purpose |
|-----------|-----------|--------|---------|
| {type} | {yes/no} | {yes/no} | {purpose} |

### Files Created
{list all generated files with paths}

============================================================ NEXT STEPS

1. Run bundle exec fastlane internal to push your first internal test build
2. Complete the data safety form in Play Console using the generated template
3. Run deploy/mobile-ci-cd to automate builds and track promotion in CI
4. Run deploy/ota-updates if you need over-the-air patching between releases

============================================================ SELF-EVOLUTION TELEMETRY

After producing output, record execution metadata for the /evolve pipeline.

Check if a project memory directory exists:

• Look for the project path in ~/.claude/projects/
• If found, append to skill-telemetry.md in that memory directory

Entry format:

### /play-store-publish — {{YYYY-MM-DD}}
- Outcome: {{SUCCESS | PARTIAL | FAILED}}
- Self-healed: {{yes — what was healed | no}}
- Iterations used: {{N}} / {{N max}}
- Bottleneck: {{phase that struggled or "none"}}
- Suggestion: {{one-line improvement idea for /evolve, or "none"}}

Only log if the memory directory exists. Skip silently if not found. Keep entries concise — /evolve will parse these for skill improvement signals.

============================================================ DO NOT

• Do NOT commit signing keystores or service account keys to the repository
• Do NOT hardcode signing passwords in build files — use environment variables
• Do NOT upload APK instead of AAB — Play Store requires AAB for new apps
• Do NOT skip data safety form — incomplete declarations delay review
• Do NOT use production track for first upload — start with internal testing
• Do NOT forget ProGuard rules for serialization classes — this causes runtime crashes
• Do NOT set rollout to 100% immediately — always use staged rollout for production
