Shopify MCP Server

Open-source Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Shopify Admin API. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, OpenClaw, and any MCP-compatible client.

Why This Exists

• Composio = commercial, paid, complex
• Shopify's Storefront MCP = Hydrogen-only, limited scope
• This = open-source, self-hosted, Admin API coverage

Features

• 🔍 Product Search — Find products by title, handle, or tags
• 📦 Product Management — Get, update products and variants
• 📋 Order Queries — View orders and line items
• 🏷️ Metafield Operations — Read and write metafields on products, collections, customers
• 🎨 Theme Asset Editing — Read and edit Liquid, CSS, JS files directly
• 👥 Customer Management — Customer queries (coming soon)
