| description | Set up a complete RevenueCat project from scratch — creates apps, products, entitlements, offerings, and packages in the correct order. Use when the user wants to create a new RevenueCat project, configure in-app purchases, set up subscriptions or monetization, or bootstrap IAP infrastructure for iOS, Android, or Web. |
RevenueCat Project Bootstrap
Guide through setting up a complete RevenueCat project from scratch.
Instructions
Important: Use the RevenueCat MCP server for all tool calls. The MCP server may have access to multiple projects. Always use list-projects first to retrieve all accessible projects. If multiple projects are returned, ask the user which project to use or if they want to create a new one.
Phase 1: Discovery
Ask targeted questions to understand the developer's needs:
- Platforms — "Which platforms are you building for?" (iOS, Android, Web, or multiple)
- Business Model — "What type of monetization are you planning?" (subscriptions, one-time purchases, consumables, or a mix)
- Subscription Tiers (if applicable) — "What subscription options do you want to offer?" (common: Monthly + Annual, single tier, Freemium + Premium)
- App Details — Bundle ID (iOS, e.g.
com.company.appname), package name (Android), and display name
Phase 2: Create Resources
Execute in this order — dependencies matter.
-
Verify/Create Project
list-projects - list accessible projects
If multiple: ask user which to use, or offer to create a new one
To create a new project, use the create-project MCP tool
Store project_id for all subsequent calls
-
Create Apps (for each platform):
- For mobile apps, ask if the user already has set up their app in App Store Connect / Google Play Console. If so, create an app using the
create-app tool (type: app_store | play_store). If not, use the automatically generated test_store app and tell the user that they can set up the integration with App Store Connect / Google Play Console later.
- For web apps,
create-app with type rc_billing
-
Create Products (for each subscription/purchase): create-product tool
-
Create Entitlements (for each feature/access level): create-entitlement tool
-
Attach Products to Entitlements: attach-products-to-entitlement tool
-
Create Default Offering: create-offering tool (lookup_key: "default")
-
Create Packages in Offering: create-package tool (for subscriptions, use $rc_monthly, $rc_annual, etc.)
-
Attach Products to Packages: attach-products-to-package tool
-
Get API Keys: list-app-public-api-keys tool
Phase 3: Summary & Next Steps
Provide a complete setup summary:
Project Setup Complete!
=======================
Project: {project_name} ({project_id})
Apps Created:
iOS: {app_name} - API Key: appl_xxxxx
Android: {app_name} - API Key: goog_xxxxx
Products:
- monthly_premium (subscription, P1M)
- annual_premium (subscription, P1Y)
Entitlements:
- premium → monthly_premium, annual_premium
Offering: default (current)
└── $rc_monthly → monthly_premium
└── $rc_annual → annual_premium
Next Steps:
1. Configure store credentials in RevenueCat dashboard
2. Create products in App Store Connect / Play Console
3. Add SDK to your app (see /rc:create-app)
4. Implement paywall UI using the "default" offering
Error Handling
If any step fails:
- Report the specific error clearly
- Suggest fixes (e.g., "Bundle ID may already be in use")
- Offer to retry or skip that step
- Continue with remaining steps if possible
