Cursor: Add to Cursor, or put this in ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{ "mcpServers": { "shotlingo": { "url": "https://mcp.shotlingo.com/mcp" } } }

What you can ask for

"Make a 6.9-inch App Store set for my habit tracker from these five simulator screenshots, one benefit per screen, then translate it into German, Japanese and Brazilian Portuguese."

"Take my English set, localize it for the top five markets, render all of it and upload it to App Store Connect."

"Which captions overflow in German? Shorten them and re-render only those pages."

What you get

Text is fitted by the same export pipeline the ShotLingo web editor uses, so a German caption that runs long shrinks to fit instead of spilling off the frame.

The Claude Code plugin also ships:

• app-store-screenshots skill: the screenshot design rules we use: what the first three screens must do, caption length, sizes, localization traps, App Review rules. It works on its own, with no account.

• /shotlingo:localize command: one command from "here is my English set" to a rendered, localized set.

Pricing and the free path

• The skill in this repo is free and needs no account.

• The ShotLingo web editor at shotlingo.com has a free plan.

• The MCP connector needs a paid plan (Pro, Plus or Studio). Store upload needs Plus or Studio. Limits are on shotlingo.com/plans.

The server is hosted and closed source. This repo is the open part: client configs, the Claude Code plugin and the design skill. Bugs and feature requests for the server are welcome here as issues.

Privacy

This repo collects nothing: it is configuration and Markdown. What the hosted service stores is described in shotlingo.com/privacy.

Contributing

Better screenshot rules, client configs for more editors, and clearer docs are all welcome. Open a pull request or an issue. Run npm test before you push.
