asc-xcode-build
Build and export iOS/macOS apps with xcodebuild for App Store Connect upload.
- Handles both iOS (IPA) and macOS (PKG) builds through archive and export workflows with xcodebuild
- Requires valid signing identity, provisioning profiles, and Xcode command line tools configured
- Integrates with asc CLI for uploading builds; macOS uploads require explicit version and build number parameters
- Build numbers must be unique and higher than previous uploads; includes commands to check existing builds and verify project settings
Xcode build and export
Use this skill when you need to build an app from source and prepare it for App Store Connect. Prefer asc xcode archive and asc xcode export over raw xcodebuild recipes when they fit the project.
Preconditions
- Xcode and command line tools are installed.
- Signing identity and provisioning profiles are available, or automatic signing is enabled.
- App Store Connect auth is configured when upload or build lookup is needed.
