Shopify Dev MCP - AI Agent Plugin

This plugin connects AI coding agents to the Shopify Dev MCP server, giving them access to Shopify's developer docs, API schemas, and development guidance. Ask questions and build Shopify apps without leaving your editor or terminal.

**What you get:**

• Search Shopify docs and API schemas on the fly
• Generate code for GraphQL Admin API, Storefront API, Functions, Liquid, and more
• Validate components, GraphQL, and theme files to ensure they're free of hallucinations
• Build Shopify apps faster with context-aware assistance

Requirements

• Node.js 18+ with npm/npx available
• One of the supported agents below

**First-run note:** On first use, npx will download the `@shopify/dev-mcp` package and its dependencies (~3 MB). This takes a few seconds and only happens once per machine.
