smbcloud-ascapi

smbcloud-ascapi is the app stores coolest API.

Six crates, split by domain and layered so neither front end can drift from the other:

Crate	What it is
smbcloud-ascapi-core	Shared transport: JWT auth, the HTTP client, JSON:API envelopes, error types
smbcloud-ascapi-aso	App Metadata: apps, app infos, versions, bundle IDs, localizations, screenshots
smbcloud-ascapi-signing	Code signing: certificates, plus local RSA key pair and CSR generation
smbcloud-ascapi-frontend	Operations both surfaces share, so the CLI and the MCP server agree by construction
smbcloud-ascapi-mcp	The MCP contract and stdio server
smbcloud-ascapi-cli	The ascapi binary: clap command tree, plus --mcp

aso and signing know nothing about each other, and neither knows anything about the front ends. Both add their calls to smbcloud_ascapi_core::Client as extension traits, since Rust only allows inherent impls in the crate that defines a type:

use smbcloud_ascapi_core::{ApiKey, Client};
use smbcloud_ascapi_aso::prelude::*;      // or signing::prelude
