Use when the user mentions "app rating", "star rating", "review prompt", "SKStoreReviewRequest", "In-App Review API", "ask for review", "low rating", "rating drop", "get more reviews", or "recover from 1-star".

App Launch
99When the user wants to plan a launch strategy for a new app or major update. Also use when the user mentions "app launch", "launch plan", "launch checklist", "pre-launch", "launch day", or "how to launch my app". For ongoing ASO after launch, see aso-audit. For paid acquisition during launch, see ua-campaign.
App Analytics
99When the user wants to set up, interpret, or improve their app analytics and tracking. Also use when the user mentions "analytics", "tracking", "metrics", "KPIs", "App Store Connect analytics", "install tracking", "funnel", "attribution", or "how is my app performing". For A/B testing, see ab-test-store-listing. For retention metrics, see retention-optimization.
Retention Optimization
98When the user wants to reduce churn, improve user engagement, or increase lifetime value. Also use when the user mentions "retention", "churn", "users leaving", "engagement", "DAU/MAU", "user activation", or "why are users uninstalling". For onboarding-specific issues, see app-launch.

For overall retention strategy, see retention-optimization. For paywall placement, see monetization-strategy.
Aso Router
98Single entry point that routes any ASO, App Store, Google Play, app marketing, paid UA, monetization, retention, reviews, ratings, market-intel, or app-analytics question to the correct specialist skill in this library. Use FIRST whenever the user mentions an app, App Store, Play Store, keywords, ranking, downloads, revenue, subscriptions, screenshots, icon, reviews, competitors, charts, in-app events, launch, press, or ads — but the right specialized skill is not obvious. Triggers: "/aso-skill", "/aso", "aso help", "help me with my app", "I need ASO", "which skill should I use", or any ambiguous app-marketing request. Skip this router only when the user explicitly invokes a specific skill (e.g. /aso-audit, /keyword-research).
