MCP Server

Shopify Dev MCP - official Shopify docs, GraphQL schema, and code validation server

Shopify's official Dev MCP server for people building Shopify apps and themes: documentation search, Admin GraphQL schema lookup, and validation of GraphQL operations, UI extension components, and Liquid theme code.
