Headless store management for Claude Code

Run `list_submissions` or `list_flights` directly from your shell. Claude Code pipes this data into your scripts, letting you automate checks in your CI/CD pipeline. This removes the need for browser-based testing. You get raw JSON responses from the store API delivered right to your terminal session.

Scripted application auditing

Use `list_applications` to ingest your store inventory into a bash loop. Claude Code then calls `get_application` for each item to verify settings programmatically. This is ideal for bulk auditing. You can verify your entire app portfolio against your local config files in seconds, without leaving the command line.

Direct access to flight and add-on data

Claude Code calls `get_flight` and `get_addon` to retrieve specific store states for your deployment logs. It makes tracking store-side changes part of your standard terminal workflow. No manual polling required. If you need to verify a release candidate, just ask Claude Code to check the flight status via the MCP Server.
