# asc_upload_screenshot

Composite tool. Reads localFilePath from disk, reserves an AppScreenshot under the given set with fileName + fileSize derived from the file, PUTs every uploadOperation chunk to Apple storage in sequence, then commits with sourceFileChecksum (md5 hex) + uploaded=true. Returns the final committed resource + a per-chunk summary. Tilde paths (~/...) are expanded. For manual control over each step, use the raw asc_post_app_screenshot + asc_upload_asset_chunk + asc_patch_app_screenshot tools instead.

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "asc_upload_screenshot",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why asc_upload_screenshot is rated Medium

The tool creates a new screenshot resource in App Store Connect and uploads file content to Apple's storage, constituting irreversible data creation. While it doesn't delete data (not Destructive) or execute arbitrary code (not Execute), it modifies the app's store listing by adding media assets.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool 'reserves an AppScreenshot', 'PUTs every uploadOperation chunk to Apple storage', and 'commits with sourceFileChecksum + uploaded=true'. These are create/modify operations that persist data to App Store Connect."

Risk signals: Bulk/mass operation — affects multiple targets
