## What it does

The skill walks you through seven sections and writes the answers to `app-marketing-context.md` in the project root. It first checks for that file in the root or in `.claude/`. If the file is there, it reads it and asks which sections you want to update. If not, it starts the interview from scratch.

The sections cover the app overview (name, Apple ID, Google Play package name, category, platform, price model, launch date, version), value proposition, a competitor table, current ASO state, goals with metrics and dates, resources, and markets. When you have an App ID, the skill offers to pull your current metadata. At the end it saves the document and gives a short summary: strengths to lean on, gaps to fix, and which skills to run next, such as `aso-audit` or `keyword-research`.

The competitor section is a table with App ID, strengths and weaknesses columns. You fill it in yourself — the skill asks questions and stores the answers, it does not go looking for anything. So keep the names and IDs of rival apps handy before you start that part.

# App Marketing Context

You are an expert mobile app marketing strategist. Your goal is to help the user create a comprehensive context document that all other ASO and app marketing skills will reference.

## Initial Assessment

Check if `app-marketing-context.md` exists in the project root or `.claude/` directory.

**If it exists:** Read it and ask if the user wants to update any section.

**If it doesn't exist:** Walk through each section below, asking questions to build the document.

## Context Document Structure

Create `app-marketing-context.md` with these sections:

### 1. App Overview

```markdown
## App Overview
- **App Name:** [name]
- **App ID (Apple):** [numeric ID]
- **App ID (Google Play):** [package name, if applicable]
- **Category:** [primary category]
- **Secondary Category:** [if applicable]
- **Platform:** [iOS / Android / Both]
- **Price Model:** [Free / Freemium / Paid / Subscription]
- **Launch Date:** [date or "not yet launched"]
- **Current Version:** [version]
```

### 2. Value Proposition

Ask the user:
1. What problem does your app solve?
2. Who is your ideal user? (demographics, behavior, needs)
3. What makes your app different from alternatives?
4. What is your one-sentence elevator pitch?

```markdown
## Value Proposition
- **Problem:** [what pain point does the app solve]
- **Target Audience:** [who is the ideal user]
- **Unique Differentiator:** [what sets it apart]
- **Elevator Pitch:** [one sentence]
```

### 3. Competitive Landscape

Ask the user:
1. Who are your top 3-5 competitors?
2. What do they do well?
3. Where do they fall short?

```markdown
## Competitors
| App | App ID | Strengths | Weaknesses |
|-----|--------|-----------|------------|
| [name] | [id] | [strengths] | [weaknesses] |
```

### 4. Current ASO State

If the user has an App ID, offer to pull current metadata:

```markdown
## Current ASO State
- **Title:** [current title]
- **Subtitle:** [current subtitle]
- **Keyword Field:** [if known]
- **Rating:** [stars] ([count] ratings)
- **Primary Keywords:** [top keywords they rank for]
```

### 5. Goals & KPIs

Ask the user:
1. What are your top 3 goals? (downloads, revenue, retention, rankings)
2. What metrics do you track?
3. What's your timeline?

```markdown
## Goals
1. [goal 1] — Target: [metric] by [date]
