Setup

Claude Desktop (recommended: uvx)

Install uv first (brew install uv on macOS).

Edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) and add:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shopline": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["shopline-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "SHOPLINE_API_TOKEN": "your_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

uvx downloads and runs the package on demand — no manual install needed. Quit Claude Desktop completely (Cmd+Q) and reopen.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport stdio shopline \
  -e SHOPLINE_API_TOKEN=your_token \
  -- uvx shopline-mcp

Alternative: pip install

If you prefer a permanent install:

pip install shopline-mcp

Then use the absolute path to the installed binary (which shopline-mcp) as the command in your Claude Desktop config.

Tools

The server exposes 140+ tools grouped into these categories:

• Orders & Sales — search, detail, fulfillments, transactions, cancel, returns, deliveries, conversations, reviews

• Products & Inventory — search, detail, variants, inventory, write operations, purchase orders

• Customers — info, orders, groups, store credits, membership tiers, member points, custom fields

• Promotions — promotions, flash prices, affiliate campaigns, gifts, addon products, subscriptions

• Categories — category tree, detail, write operations

• Store settings — merchant, payment, delivery options, channels, taxes, staff, tokens, agents

• Analytics — RFM, repurchase, geo, inventory turnover, category sales, promotion ROI, customer lifecycle, slow movers

Run claude mcp list (Claude Code) or check the tool picker in Claude Desktop to see the full list once configured.

API

This server uses the Shopline Open API at https://open.shopline.io/v1. It works with stores on shoplineapp.com (Taiwan / Asia region).

Troubleshooting

Claude Desktop doesn't show the tools — check that uvx is in PATH (which uvx). Claude Desktop inherits PATH from your shell on launch; if you installed uv after launching Claude Desktop, restart it. Check logs at ~/Library/Logs/Claude/.

Tool calls fail with auth errors — confirm SHOPLINE_API_TOKEN is set in the env block of the config (not just in your shell), and that the token has the required scopes in Shopline admin.

Test the server manually:

SHOPLINE_API_TOKEN=your_token uvx shopline-mcp

It will wait on stdin (correct — MCP uses stdio). Ctrl+C to exit.

Development

git clone https://github.com/tzangms/shoplinemcp.git
cd shoplinemcp
uv venv && source .venv/bin/activate
uv pip install -e .
