Shopify Dev MCP Server

This project implements a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that interacts with Shopify Dev. This protocol supports various tools to interact with different Shopify APIs. At the moment the following APIs are supported:

  • Admin GraphQL API
  • Functions
  • (Optional) Polaris Web Components

Setup

To run the Shopify MCP server using npx, use the following command:

npx -y @shopify/dev-mcp@latest

Usage with Cursor or Claude Desktop

Add the following configuration. For more information, read the Cursor MCP documentation or the Claude Desktop MCP guide.

{ "mcpServers": { "shopify-dev-mcp": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@shopify/dev-mcp@latest"] } } }

On Windows, you might need to use this alternative configuration:

{ "mcpServers": { "shopify-dev-mcp": { "command": "cmd", "args": ["/k", "npx", "-y", "@shopify/dev-mcp@latest"] } } }

Disable instrumentation

In order to better understand how to improve the MCP server, this package makes instrumentation calls. In order to disable them you can set the OPT_OUT_INSTRUMENTATION environment variable. In Cursor or Claude Desktop the configuration would look like this:

{ "mcpServers": { "shopify-dev-mcp": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@shopify/dev-mcp@latest"], "env": { "OPT_OUT_INSTRUMENTATION": "true" } } } }

Opt-in Polaris support (experimental)

If you want Cursor or Claude Desktop to surface Polaris Web Components documentation, include an env block with the POLARIS_UNIFIED flag in your MCP server configuration:

{ "mcpServers": { "shopify-dev-mcp": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@shopify/dev-mcp@latest"], "env": { "POLARIS_UNIFIED": "true" } } } }

Available tools

This MCP server provides the following tools:

  1. npm install
  2. Modify source files
  3. Run npm run build to compile or npm run build:watch to watch for changes and compile
  4. Run npm run test to run tests
