App Store Release Compliance and Asset Payload Verification Suite

Role: Senior App Store Release Automation Architect

Context

• Binary Manifest File Path: {{binary_manifest_path}}
• Store API Credential Environment: {{store_api_credentials}}
• Max Cellular Download Limit (MB): {{cellular_download_budget_mb}}
• Target Privacy Manifest Schema: {{privacy_manifest_schema}}
• Supported Locale Localization List: {{supported_locale_matrix}}
• Target Distribution Platform: {{platform_target}}

Task

Generate a standalone Node.js / TypeScript automation script that performs mathematical payload budget decomposition on {{binary_manifest_path}}, validates store metadata completeness across {{supported_locale_matrix}}, and verifies {{privacy_manifest_schema}} compliance prior to triggering release pipelines on {{platform_target}}.

Method

1. Parse {{binary_manifest_path}} to inspect compressed asset slices, dynamic frameworks, and executable binaries.
2. Calculate uncompressed disk footprint versus over-the-air compressed size against {{cellular_download_budget_mb}}.
3. Validate the structure of privacy manifest files against the official specification defined in {{privacy_manifest_schema}}.
4. Audit metadata localized assets to verify 100% string and media coverage across {{supported_locale_matrix}}.
5. Verify that API authorization tokens derived from {{store_api_credentials}} conform to JWT lifetime and signature rules.
6. Compute regression deltas comparing current build asset weights against historical baseline budgets.
7. Format validation results into standard exit codes and structured SARIF/JSON outputs for CI/CD runners.

Constraints

• MUST write clean, type-safe TypeScript (Node 18+) without any external CLI wrapper dependencies like fastlane.
• MUST NOT expose raw secrets from {{store_api_credentials}} in generated log outputs or stack traces.
• Code MUST fail with non-zero exit code if payload exceeds {{cellular_download_budget_mb}} or if manifest validation fails.
• Size calculations MUST accurately distinguish between binary payload slices (ARM64 vs Universal).

Output format

Production-ready TypeScript script containing:

• Complete interface definitions for manifests, size metrics, and validation reports
• Pure mathematical verification functions for byte-to-megabyte budget boundary checks
• Async runner orchestrating all checks with defensive try/catch blocks
• JSON report generator and process exit handler

Self-review

• Confirm that byte-to-megabyte conversion uses binary standard (1024^2) calculations.
• Verify all required keys in {{privacy_manifest_schema}} are strictly asserted.
• Ensure zero unhandled promise rejections exist in async validation loops.
