Does this skill work for Android apps?

This specific 'beta' skill is designed for iOS and TestFlight; however, the parent repository provides general Fastlane support for mobile development.

Can I skip the build number increment during a release?

Yes, you can use the --skip-build-increment argument to keep the current build number during the upload process.

What should I do if I get a 'username' error?

Ensure your Apple ID is correctly set in your fastlane/Appfile using the apple_id('your@email.com') directive.

What credentials are required to use this skill?

You need an Apple ID with App Store Connect access and an app-specific password configured as the FASTLANE_APPLE_APPLICATION_SPECIFIC_PASSWORD environment variable.

How do I distribute builds to external testers?

By using the --external flag, the skill will trigger the beta_external lane, allowing you to include a changelog and reach testers outside your internal team.

Mobile Development

Automates the building and uploading of iOS applications to TestFlight using Fastlane.

This skill streamlines the iOS beta distribution process by orchestrating complex Fastlane tasks directly through Claude. It handles certificate management via Match, automates build number increments, compiles release archives with Gym, and uploads builds to TestFlight via Pilot. It is an essential tool for mobile developers looking to maintain a consistent CI/CD workflow, allowing for rapid deployment to internal and external testers without manual intervention in App Store Connect.
