We currently don't have any concept of an app ID in the scopes run time,
except for one place, where we check whether a scope ID looks like
<scope_id>_<app_id>. That's the case for scopes that are bundled with an
app into the same click.

Is this what you mean?

The easiest way to implement this would be to write a little scopes
client that gets the list of scopes from the registry and then iterates
over the scope ID to check whether there is a scope with an ID that
looks like <some-string>_<app_id>.

Title:
  API needed to determine if App ID is a scope

Status in unity-scopes-api package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  
  There are a few cases where we'd like it if a higher level service could determine if a particular AppID is connected to a scope. This mostly deals with requests that relate to trusted session prompts as they need to be overlayed on top of the dash instead of the calling process. Another is so that URL dispatcher can return better errors on the scope:// URL namespace. I don't think that it needs to be complex, roughly something like this:

  bool isScope (const char * appid);
