Overview
Shopify's AI Toolkit provides an official MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for developer workflows. This skill configures it for Claude Code, enabling GraphQL schema validation, Liquid template linting, and real-time Shopify documentation search without leaving your editor.
Prerequisites
- Node.js 18+ and npm/pnpm installed
- A Shopify store with a custom app or API access token
- Access scopes appropriate for your workflow (minimum:
,read_products
)read_themes - Claude Code with MCP support enabled
Instructions
Step 1: MCP Configuration
Create or update
.mcp.json in your project root:
{ "mcpServers": { "shopify": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "@shopify/ai-toolkit-mcp" ], "env": { "SHOPIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN": "${SHOPIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN}", "SHOPIFY_STORE_URL": "https://your-store.myshopify.com" } } } }
Note: The package name
may change. Check shopify.dev/docs for the latest official MCP package name and configuration.@shopify/ai-toolkit-mcp
Set your environment variables:
export SHOPIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN="shpat_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" export SHOPIFY_STORE_URL="https://your-store.myshopify.com"
See references/mcp-config.md for advanced configuration and troubleshooting.
Step 2: GraphQL Schema Validation
With the MCP server running, validate GraphQL queries against your store's live schema before executing them. The MCP introspects the schema and catches:
- Deprecated fields (e.g.,
should bepriceRange
)priceRangeV2 - Type mismatches in mutation inputs (e.g.,
split intoProductInput
/ProductCreateInput
in 2024-10)ProductUpdateInput - Missing required fields and incorrect enum values
See references/graphql-validation.md for common validation errors and deprecated field mappings.
Step 3: Liquid Template Linting
The AI Toolkit checks Liquid templates for syntax errors, deprecated filters, and performance anti-patterns:
| Issue | Bad | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Deprecated filter | | |
| Scope leak | | |
| Unbounded loop | | Add or use |
Step 4: Documentation Search
Query Shopify's official documentation through the MCP server for up-to-date API information:
# Example MCP queries you can make: # - "What fields are available on the Product object?" # - "Show me the companyCreate mutation input shape" # - "What scopes do I need for B2B operations?" # - "What changed in the 2024-10 API version?"
This is especially useful for checking API version changes and deprecated fields without leaving your editor.
See references/workflow-integration.md for combining MCP tools with other shopify-pack skills.
Output
- MCP server configured and connected to your Shopify store
- GraphQL queries validated against live schema before execution
- Liquid templates linted for deprecated filters and anti-patterns
- Real-time documentation search available in Claude Code
Error Handling
| Error | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| MCP server failed to start | Check Node.js version (18+), run manually to see errors |
| Token expired or wrong format | Regenerate token in Shopify admin (Settings > Apps > Develop apps) |
| Insufficient API scopes | Add and scopes to your app |
| Too many documentation requests | Space out queries; docs are cached after first fetch |
| Config file missing or wrong location | Must be in project root or for global config |
| MCP package name changed | Check shopify.dev/docs for the current official package name |
Examples
Validating a GraphQL Mutation Before Execution
You need to call
productCreate but aren't sure which input fields changed in the latest API version. Use the MCP server to validate your query against the live schema.
See GraphQL Validation for common validation errors and deprecated field mappings.
Setting Up MCP for a Team Project
Configure the Shopify MCP server at project, user, and global levels so the entire team gets schema validation automatically.
See MCP Config for advanced configuration and troubleshooting.
Combining MCP Validation with Other Shopify Skills
Chain MCP schema validation before running mutations from other shopify-pack skills like B2B or checkout extensions.
See Workflow Integration for the combined workflow patterns.
