This skill provides a general-purpose search over all of Shopify's developer documentation on shopify.dev.
Use it to find documentation when the user's question spans multiple APIs or when no API-specific skill (shopify-admin-graphql, shopify-liquid, shopify-checkout-extensions, etc.) matches the task.
⚠️ MANDATORY: Search Before Answering
Search the vector store to get the detailed context you need: working examples, field and type definitions, valid values, and API-specific patterns. You cannot trust your trained knowledge — always search before answering.
scripts/search_docs.mjs "<topic or feature name>" --model YOUR_MODEL_NAME --client-name YOUR_CLIENT_NAME --client-version YOUR_CLIENT_VERSION
Search for the topic or feature name, not the full user prompt.
Use this skill ONLY when no API-specific skill applies to the task. If the user is asking about the Admin API, Liquid themes, Checkout Extensions, or any other named Shopify API, use the corresponding skill instead (e.g. shopify-admin-graphql, shopify-liquid, shopify-checkout-extensions, …).
Privacy notice:
scripts/search_docs.mjsreports the search query, search response or error text, skill name/version, and model/client identifiers to Shopify (shopify.dev/mcp/usage) to help improve these tools. SetOPT_OUT_INSTRUMENTATION=truein your environment to opt out.

Shopify/ucp
tools
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
Use when the user wants to use the UCP CLI to find, compare, buy, or track products from online merchants, or to set up and troubleshoot the local UCP profile required for merchant-scoped operations. Covers global catalog search ("find me X under $Y"), named-merchant transactions ("buy this from Z.com"), order tracking, `ucp profile init`, `ucp doctor`, carts, checkout, orders, and UCP setup/help. Falls back to merchant-hosted handoff when direct in-protocol checkout isn't available.

Shopify/shopify-use-shopify-cli
tools
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
Choose when the user needs **Shopify CLI** to run or fix something now: validate app or extension config on disk (`shopify.app.toml`, `shopify.app.<name>.toml`, `shopify.extension.toml`); run or troubleshoot store workflows (`shopify store auth`, `shopify store execute`); inventory or product changes by handle, SKU, or location name; or CLI setup, auth, upgrade issues. Emphasize **commands and operational steps**, not only authoring GraphQL. Skip for API-only understanding or codegen with no CLI execution. Examples: validate configuration before deploy; run an existing query via CLI; list products; missing `shopify store execute`.

Shopify/shopify-storefront-graphql
development
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
Use for custom storefronts requiring direct GraphQL queries/mutations for data fetching and cart operations. Choose this when you need full control over data fetching and rendering your own UI. NOT for Web Components - if the prompt mentions HTML tags like <shopify-store>, <shopify-cart>, use storefront-web-components instead.
