  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 12 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 13 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass

  • Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
Install

How do I install the ShipASO MCP server?

ShipASO is a hosted endpoint at https://api.shipaso.com/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 12 exposed · ~1,320 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
audit_app ~89

Read-only listing audit: prioritized findings (severity + impact) plus a summary, derived from the live public listing. Read-only — never edits or pushes.

NameTypeReqDescription
bundleIdstringExact bundle id (skips resolution)
countrystringISO country storefront, e.g. US
querystringApp name, App Store URL, numeric id, or bundle id

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

audit_play_app ~209

Read-only GOOGLE PLAY listing audit: screenshot grade, the 30/80/4000 title/short/long-description budget, target-term coverage in the long description (Play's keyword surface), a keyword-stuffing guard, prioritized findings + summary, and capability locks for surfaces a public read can't see. Takes a Play package id (com.foo.bar) or a play.google.com URL — NOT a free-text name (Play has no public name search). Play has NO keyword field. Reads public Play data only; never edits or pushes.

NameTypeReqDescription
brandstringApp brand name, so brand-burn in the short description is flagged
countrystringISO country storefront, e.g. US
packageNamestringExact Play package id (skips resolution)
querystringGoogle Play package id (com.foo.bar) or a play.google.com app URL
targetsarrayTarget search terms to measure long-description coverage for

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

audit_play_app_owner ~167

Read-only audit of YOUR OWN Google Play app via the official Play Developer API — full fidelity including the short description (which the public page can't show), with NO capability locks. Requires a configured Play service account (GOOGLE_PLAY_SERVICE_ACCOUNT). Reads only — it opens and DISCARDS a Play 'edit' and NEVER commits, so it can't publish. Owner-only; for a competitor use audit_play_app.

NameTypeReqDescription
brandstringApp brand name, so short-description brand-burn is flagged
languagestringBCP-47 listing language, e.g. en-US

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

competitor_watch ~118

Read-only competitor diff: resolves the named competitors and reports their current listings, what changed vs. the last seen state, and a digest line. Read-only metadata comparison; no ranking-algorithm data is invented.

NameTypeReqDescription
bundleIdstringExact bundle id (skips resolution)
competitorsarrayyesCompetitor app names or bundle ids to compare against
countrystringISO country storefront, e.g. US
querystringApp name, App Store URL, numeric id, or bundle id

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

keyword_gaps ~104

Read-only keyword opportunities: terms tracked competitors VISIBLY use that this app doesn't target and doesn't rank top-50 for, sorted by winnability. Inferred from competitor name/subtitle only — never their ranking algorithm.

NameTypeReqDescription
bundleIdstringExact bundle id (skips resolution)
countrystringISO country storefront, e.g. US
querystringApp name, App Store URL, numeric id, or bundle id

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

localization_gaps ~80

Read-only localization expansion recommendations (ROI-sorted locales to add) for one of YOUR connected apps, from its most recent App Store Connect run. A static, bundled heuristic over the locales already read — no live install data is fabricated. Empty until you've run an ASC-connected pass.

NameTypeReqDescription
appIdstringyesId of a connected app you own

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

preview_app ~105

Read-only ASO snapshot of any App Store app (grade, lead rank, top-10 count, sample). No account or store push — the optimized copy + push commands stay behind the human-approved loop. Works without a key.

NameTypeReqDescription
bundleIdstringExact bundle id (skips resolution)
countrystringISO country storefront, e.g. US
querystringApp name, App Store URL, numeric id, or bundle id

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

proof ~59

Read-only, anonymized aggregate proof across all tracked apps (real rank-win numbers — no app names, no user data). This is the 'prove the rank moved' surface that closes the prepare → approve → push → prove loop. Works without a key.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

propose_copy ~126

Returns a DRAFT optimized listing (name/subtitle/keywords/description) with validation for any app. THIS IS A DRAFT ONLY: it does NOT persist a proposal and does NOT push to the App Store. Publishing stays a human-approved action in ShipASO — an agent can draft and read; only a human approves and pushes.

NameTypeReqDescription
bundleIdstringExact bundle id (skips resolution)
countrystringISO country storefront, e.g. US
querystringApp name, App Store URL, numeric id, or bundle id

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

rank_check ~91

Read-only organic rank check across the app's target keywords, plus winnability-ranked opportunities computed from those measured positions. Positions are live-measured, never fabricated.

NameTypeReqDescription
bundleIdstringExact bundle id (skips resolution)
countrystringISO country storefront, e.g. US
querystringApp name, App Store URL, numeric id, or bundle id

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

screenshot_coverage ~91

Read-only screenshot scoring for the app's live store gallery (count, score, grade, levers to improve). Read-only — never uploads or pushes assets.

NameTypeReqDescription

No output schema declared.

war_room ~81

Read-only head-to-head rank war room for one of YOUR connected apps: your tracked-keyword rank history vs. live competitor positions on those same keywords. Reads stored data + live competitor ranks; writes nothing.

NameTypeReqDescription
appIdstringyesId of a connected app you own
competitorsarrayCompetitor names to compare (max 4)

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

Common questions

What is the ShipASO MCP server?

ShipASO is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.airowe/shipaso. Audit any App Store or Google Play listing: measured ranks, keyword gaps, draft copy. Read-only. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://api.shipaso.com/mcp).

Is the ShipASO MCP server safe to use?

ShipASO scores 68 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the ShipASO MCP server expose?

ShipASO exposes 12 tools: preview_app, audit_app, audit_play_app, audit_play_app_owner, keyword_gaps, and 7 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,320 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the ShipASO MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to ShipASO without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

Is the ShipASO MCP server still maintained?

ShipASO is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
