What is Shopify MCP Proxy & Mock Server (ShopifyMCPMockShop)?
This server implements a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that acts as an intelligent bridge and proxy to Shopify’s Storefront API. It uniquely supports mock.shop for safe development and testing without requiring real store credentials. The server communicates via Standard Input/Output (stdio), making it suitable for local integration with clients like Claude Desktop and Cursor.
How to use Shopify MCP Proxy & Mock Server (ShopifyMCPMockShop)?
Clone the repository, install dependencies (npm install), and build (npm run build). Configure your MCP client (Claude Desktop or Cursor) to launch the compiled server (dist/server.js) via stdio. Optionally set environment variables (SHOPIFY_STORE, SHOPIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN, SHOPIFY_VERSION) to connect to a real store; otherwise mock.shop is used by default with no configuration required. The server runs automatically when launched by the client.
