asc screenshot resize

Use this skill to prepare screenshots for App Store Connect. Do not rely on a hard-coded dimension table in this skill; the CLI owns the current size matrix.

Source of truth

Always discover current accepted sizes from asc first:

asc screenshots sizes --output table
asc screenshots sizes --all --output table

For local validation before upload:

asc screenshots validate --path "./screenshots/iphone" --device-type "IPHONE_65" --output table
asc screenshots validate --path "./screenshots/ipad" --device-type "IPAD_PRO_3GEN_129" --output table

Common current device-type anchors:

  • IPHONE_65 for the common 6.5-inch iPhone screenshot set.
  • IPAD_PRO_3GEN_129 for the common 12.9/13-inch iPad screenshot set.

Run asc screenshots sizes --all when targeting other display types such as 6.9-inch iPhone, Apple TV, Mac, Vision Pro, iMessage, or Watch.

Workflow

1. Sanitize filenames

macOS screenshots can contain hidden Unicode spaces that make tools fail with "not a valid file". Sanitize before batch work:

python3 -c "
import os
for f in os.listdir('.'):
    clean = f.replace('\u202f', ' ')
    if f != clean:
        os.rename(f, clean)
        print(f'Renamed: {clean}')
"

2. Inspect dimensions and metadata

sips -g pixelWidth -g pixelHeight screenshot.png
sips -g hasAlpha -g space screenshot.png

App Store Connect rejects screenshots with alpha transparency. Strip alpha by round-tripping through JPEG:

sips -s format jpeg input.png --out /tmp/asc-screenshot-no-alpha.jpg
sips -s format png /tmp/asc-screenshot-no-alpha.jpg --out output.png
rm /tmp/asc-screenshot-no-alpha.jpg

Batch-strip alpha from PNGs:

for f in *.png; do
  if sips -g hasAlpha "$f" | grep -q "yes"; then
    sips -s format jpeg "$f" --out /tmp/asc-screenshot-no-alpha.jpg
    sips -s format png /tmp/asc-screenshot-no-alpha.jpg --out "$f"
    rm /tmp/asc-screenshot-no-alpha.jpg
    echo "Stripped alpha: $f"
  fi
done

3. Resize only after choosing a target from asc

Pick a width and height from asc screenshots sizes --all. sips -z takes height first, then width:

# Example: portrait IPHONE_65 1284 x 2778
sips -z 2778 1284 input.png --out output.png

Batch resize to a chosen target:

mkdir -p resized
for f in *.png; do
  sips -z 2778 1284 "$f" --out "resized/$f"
done

4. Validate outputs with asc

sips -g pixelWidth -g pixelHeight -g hasAlpha resized/*.png
asc screenshots validate --path "./resized" --device-type "IPHONE_65" --output table

5. Upload only after validation

asc screenshots upload --version-localization "LOC_ID" --path "./resized" --device-type "IPHONE_65" --dry-run --output table
asc screenshots upload --version-localization "LOC_ID" --path "./resized" --device-type "IPHONE_65"

Guardrails

  • Treat asc screenshots sizes --all as authoritative; Apple size requirements change.
  • Do not stretch screenshots across incompatible aspect ratios unless the user accepts the visual tradeoff.
  • Always output to a separate file or directory to preserve originals.
  • Screenshots must be PNG or JPEG and must not include alpha transparency.
  • Convert Display P3 or other color spaces to sRGB when needed:
sips -m "/System/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/sRGB IEC61966-2.1.icc" input.png --out output.png
  • Prefer asc screenshots validate over visual inspection before upload.

Annotate UI screenshots with documentation callouts in Fellyph's established visual style — uniform-width orange arrows with white halos, double-stroke target outlines, numbered callout cards, dim overlays and a framed canvas. Use this whenever the user asks to annotate a screenshot, add arrows or callouts to a screenshot, create documentation images, highlight UI controls in a capture, or produce docs/tutorial visuals for Playground, Studio or any web UI — even if they just say "add arrows to this" or "make a docs screenshot".

Generate high-density editorial HTML info cards in a modern magazine and Swiss-international style, then capture them as ratio-specific screenshots.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take rorkai/asc-screenshot-resize from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
