ASO Documentation

Use the local MCP server

AppSprint ASO includes a local MCP server so AI assistants can read your tracked apps, keyword metrics, metadata suggestions, Apple Ads insights, and App Store Connect metadata.

Setup

In the macOS app sidebar, turn on MCP Server. When it is running, the local endpoint is:

http://localhost:9001/mcp

Local to your Mac

Keep AppSprint ASO open while your assistant uses the MCP server. The server runs locally on your Mac and uses the data already available inside the app.

Client setup

Use the same configuration shown in the app's MCP Server sheet. Pick your assistant or editor and copy the snippet.

claude mcp add --transport http app-sprint-aso http://localhost:9001/mcp
claude mcp list

Troubleshooting

  • Assistant cannot connect: confirm MCP Server is enabled in the AppSprint ASO sidebar and the app is still open.
  • Tools cannot read App Store Connect metadata: connect App Store Connect first.
  • Cursor or VS Code does not show the server: save the config file, then restart the editor.
