Shopify MCP
Build Shopify apps & themes with AI
Shopify's official Dev MCP server connects coding agents to Shopify's developer docs, GraphQL Admin/Storefront API schemas and validation tools — validate queries, Liquid and UI extensions without touching a live store. Runs via npx, no API key needed for docs/schema. Separately, every store exposes a Storefront MCP at /api/mcp for shopper-facing AI assistants.
