A native macOS app that audits your Xcode project against real App Store Connect data before you submit — not a linter, a live diff against what's actually registered under your account. Catches IAP/Subscription ID mismatches, Privacy Manifest gaps (with suggested reason codes), incomplete App Information, Age Rating drift, and the five declarations you always forget. No backend — your API key never leaves your Mac.

Could you build this?
Partial The UI and Xcode project file parsing are straightforward, but deeply integrating and accurately diffing against private App Store Connect API endpoints and complex Apple compliance schemas is non-trivial.
What it would actually take: Requires a native Swift/macOS app with custom parsers for `.xcodeproj`, `Info.plist`, and `PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy` files, authenticated via App Store Connect API keys. The difficult component is reverse-engineering or continuously tracking Apple's opaque, undocumented App Review validation rules and edge cases across in-app purchases and privacy manifest requirement codes.
