Conversation
Adds a 4th release step that prepares an App Store version for review without submitting, so the only manual action left is clicking Submit in App Store Connect. The prepare_release lane uses deliver to: create/update the App Store version, attach the latest processed TestFlight build, push the release notes from fastlane/metadata/en-US/release_notes.txt (a fixed string, overridable in ASC), and mark the version for automatic release once approved. Screenshots and all other metadata are left untouched (managed manually in ASC). Takes an optional version input, defaulting to the branch MARKETING_VERSION.

Lets you pin a specific TestFlight build for the App Store version instead of always using the latest. Defaults to the latest processed build when omitted. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

1.3is currentlyWAITING_FOR_REVIEW, so running this against it would collide with the in-review version. Syntax/config verified; the lane will be validated on the next version (1.4). Safe to merge — nothing runs until the workflow is dispatched.
