ecommerceguide summary

A community MCP server that connects an MCP client to the Shopify Admin GraphQL API. Its 18 tools find products, variants and collections, list customers and add customer tags, query orders, create and complete draft orders, create discount codes, manage webhooks, read shop details and introspect the Admin schema. It runs locally over stdio, built from source with Node.js, and authenticates with a Shopify custom app Admin API access token.

Why it stands out

A community fork of an earlier Shopify MCP server, MIT licensed, with tools for schema introspection and shopify.dev docs search.

  2. A merchandising team on Shopify with developer support

    Setting up a promotion and tagging customers who qualify for it

    Intended outcomecreateDiscountCode creates a percentage or fixed amount code and addCustomerTags applies tags to the chosen customer.

  3. A Shopify store that takes assisted or phone orders

    Building an order for a customer from selected variants and a shipping address

    Intended outcomecreateDraftOrder builds the draft with line items, email and address, and completeDraftOrder finalises it.

Who it suits

ecommerceguide editorial

Best for

You run a Shopify store, use Claude Desktop or another MCP client, and can build and host a local Node.js server with an Admin API token.

Probably not for

You want a hosted endpoint with OAuth, since this only runs locally over stdio with a custom app access token, or if you need more Admin coverage than its 18 tools, where shopify-2 exposes 31.

Business size
Any stageMIT licensed open source with no pricing and no stated audience, so the limit is having someone to build and run it locally.last
