PubShip MCP server
by pubship
Lets your AI read your Google Play releases, reviews and reports, and prepare changes you approve.
PubShip is a helper that connects your AI assistant to your own Google Play Console account. It lets the AI look at your app's releases, reviews, vitals and reports, and prepare changes like release edits or store listing updates for you to review. It is handy if you manage one or more Android apps and want fewer clicks in the Play Console.
What is an MCP server? The 30-second version
By itself, your AI can only chat. An MCP server is a small helper program that runs on your computer and gives your AI a new skill or connection. Here, it is a connection to Google Play, using your own service account. Once it is running, your AI can ask PubShip to look things up in your Play Console or prepare changes there when you ask.
What this MCP server does
You ask your AI something about your Android app, like how your latest release is doing. Your AI passes that request to PubShip, which is running quietly on your computer. PubShip talks to Google Play using your own service account and the app packages you set. It brings back the releases, reviews, vitals or reports you asked about, or prepares a change for you to confirm. Reads happen by default; writes and sensitive reads only work if you turn them on.
What you can do with it
- Read your app's release history and current release status
- Summarize recent user reviews for your apps
- Check Android vitals and crash or ANR numbers
- Pull scoped bulk reports for the apps you list
- Look at catalog, subscription, product and account details (with extra permission)
- Prepare a release or store-listing change for you to review and confirm
Try asking your AI
- “What is the status of my latest release on Google Play?”
- “Summarize the new reviews from the last two weeks for com.example.app”
- “Show me the Android vitals crash numbers for my app”
- “Prepare an update to my store listing short description and show me the change before anything happens”
- “List the subscription products for my app with their prices”
What it gives back to you
You get answers in the chat: lists of releases, short summaries of reviews, numbers from vitals, or the contents of reports. When you ask for a change, it shows you the prepared edit, and nothing is published until you confirm. Missing data comes back as missing, not as zero, so you know when something was not found.
Before you start
What you need
- A Google Play Console account with your apps in it
- A Google service account with permissions for those apps, and its private JSON key file saved on your computer
- The Python tool uv (used to run the pubship package)
- Your app package names, like com.example.app
Good to know
It can read your Play Console data for the apps you allow, and if you turn on writes it can prepare changes like releases or store listings, so review every prepared change before confirming.
