Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Agent request
Review the Skillstore skill "expo-dev-client" from https://skillstore.io/skills/expo-expo-dev-client.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/expo-expo-dev-client/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it
Using "expo-dev-client". I added a native module and need testers to use it on iPhones.
Expected outcome:
A plan that confirms Expo Go is not enough, prepares EAS, builds iOS, submits to TestFlight, and verifies Metro connection.
Using "expo-dev-client". My local Android development client finished building. What should I do next?
Expected outcome:
A short checklist that identifies the Android artifact, installs it on a device, launches the dev client, and connects it to the local development server.
Using "expo-dev-client". The iOS build failed during signing.
Expected outcome:
A troubleshooting path that checks Apple credentials, confirms the EAS CLI version, clears build cache when needed, and retries the development profile.
Security Audit

The static findings are false positives caused by Markdown inline code and fenced command examples in SKILL.md. The skill documents legitimate Expo and EAS development client workflows, and no prompt injection, exfiltration intent, or hidden automation was found.

What You Can Build
Test Native Modules
Create a development client when a React Native feature needs native code that Expo Go does not include.
Share iOS Builds
Build and submit an iOS development client to TestFlight for team testing on real devices.
Install Local Builds
Install local iOS or Android development builds during native debugging and device validation.
Try These Prompts
Check Need
Review my Expo app needs and tell me if I need a development client or if Expo Go is enough.
Configure EAS
Help me confirm my EAS configuration has a development profile for an Expo dev client build.
Plan TestFlight Build
Create a step plan to build an iOS Expo development client and submit it to TestFlight.
Troubleshoot Build
Analyze my Expo development client build failure and list focused checks for credentials, cache, and EAS CLI version.
Best Practices
- Try Expo Go before creating a development client.
- Keep EAS build profiles clear and separate for development and production.
- Confirm signing credentials and device targets before running local or cloud builds.
Avoid
- Creating a development client for apps that work fully in Expo Go.
- Mixing production and development build settings in one EAS profile.
- Submitting builds before checking credentials, version settings, and platform requirements.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should I use this skill?
Use it when an Expo app needs custom native code or native modules that Expo Go does not include.
Does this skill build the app automatically?
No. It provides guidance and command examples for EAS, local builds, TestFlight, and installation steps.
Can I use Expo Go instead?
Yes. The skill recommends trying Expo Go first when the app does not need custom native code.
Does it support Android development clients?
Yes. It includes Android cloud build, local build, and install guidance for development clients.
Does it help with TestFlight?
Yes. It explains how to build an iOS development client and submit it through EAS to TestFlight.
What tools must I have?
You need an Expo project, EAS CLI access, and platform tools such as Xcode or Android tooling for local builds.
