Shopify Store MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects to live Shopify stores via the Admin and Storefront APIs. Unlike documentation-only MCPs, this server enables AI agents to perform real operations on your store.

Why This MCP?

Feature	Shopify Store MCP	Shopify Dev MCP
Execute GraphQL queries	✅ Real API calls	❌ Documentation only
Modify store data	✅ Full CRUD	❌ No
Upload files	✅ Yes	❌ No
Bulk operations	✅ Yes	❌ No
API documentation	❌ No	✅ Yes
Schema introspection	❌ No	✅ Yes

Important: For the best experience, use both this MCP and the official Shopify Dev MCP together. The Dev MCP helps your AI agent understand Shopify's API schemas and documentation, while this MCP executes the actual operations on your store.

Features

Universal GraphQL Access — Execute any Admin API query or mutation via run_graphql_query
Smart Multi-Step Tools — File uploads, bulk operations, metaobject upserts with automatic polling
Rate Limiting — Respects Shopify's plan-based rate limits (Standard/Advanced/Plus/Enterprise)
Operation Logging — SQLite database tracks all operations for debugging and history
Schema Discovery — Explore your store's metafield definitions and metaobject types

Prerequisites

Node.js 18+
Shopify store with a custom app
Admin API access token — Create a custom app in Shopify Admin → Settings → Apps and development channels → Develop apps

Installation

Quick Install

After installing, edit the configuration to add your actual store credentials.

    "shopify-store-mcp": {
      "command": "cmd",
      "args": ["/k", "npx", "-y", "shopify-store-mcp"],
      "env": {

        "SHOPIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN": "shpat_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
      }
    }
  }
}

npx -y shopify-store-mcp

With environment variables:

SHOPIFY_STORE_URL — Your store's myshopify.com domain

Recommended: Add Shopify Dev MCP

For the best AI agent experience, also add the official Shopify Dev MCP. It provides:

API documentation search
GraphQL schema introspection
Query validation
Up-to-date Shopify API knowledge

This helps your AI agent know what queries to write before executing them with this MCP.
