Shopify MCP Server

Shopify MCP Server is an MCP server that connects Claude Desktop and other Model Context Protocol clients directly to the Shopify Admin GraphQL API. Designed for e-commerce developers, store managers, and automated operations teams, this integration allows language models to read and update e-commerce catalog and operational data. Users can query product catalogs, search items by title or ID, inspect variants, and retrieve collections without navigating the standard merchant admin interface. Beyond read operations, the server equips assistants with capabilities to handle customer data, attach customer tags, search and filter order histories, create draft orders, and complete transactions. It also provides administrative tooling to generate discount codes, configure and monitor store webhooks, fetch detailed store metadata, and run introspections directly against the Shopify Admin GraphQL schema or search developer documentation. By exposing store data through standardized MCP tools, it enables LLMs to automate repetitive merchant workflows and diagnostic store operations directly from conversational interfaces.
