aso-localization

Use to pick new App Store markets, research keywords natively per country, or exploit cross-locale keyword indexing with the `aso` CLI, the single most under-used ASO lever for most apps. Trigger on "localize my app", "target new markets", "international ASO", "which locales should I fill", "translate my keywords", or "how does cross-locale indexing work". Uses `aso storefronts` and the per-country `-c` flag for native market research plus `aso lint --fastlane` to validate every locale at once, and warns against ever just translating one locale's keywords into another instead of researching them fresh.

# ASO Localization

Fill more of a storefront's indexing capacity than the primary locale alone gives you: the single most under-used ASO lever for most apps.

Preflight: see the `aso` router skill.

## Iron law

**Research each locale natively: never translate.** A translated keyword is a guess about what a market searches; a keyword pulled from `aso suggest`/`aso keywords` with `-c <that country>` is measured. "Überwachungskamera" outperforms a literal translation of "security camera" in DE because it's what Germans actually type, not what English maps to.

## Step 1: Pick markets

```bash
aso storefronts
