shopify-dev
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.

Search for the topic or feature name, not the full user prompt.

shopify-admin
Write or explain **Admin GraphQL** queries and mutations for apps and integrations that extend the Shopify admin. Use when the user wants to **understand, design, or generate** the operation itself—even before deciding how to run it. Do **not** choose `admin` first for **app or extension config validation** —use **`use-shopify-cli`**. Do **not** choose `admin` first to **execute** Admin GraphQL **now via Shopify CLI** or for CLI setup/troubleshooting on store workflows—use **`use-shopify-cli`** (store auth/execute, handle/SKU/location lookups, inventory changes).
4.6Kshopify-liquid
Liquid is an open-source templating language created by Shopify. It is the backbone of Shopify themes and is used to load dynamic content on storefronts. Keywords: liquid, theme, shopify-theme, liquid-component, liquid-block, liquid-section, liquid-snippet, liquid-schemas, shopify-theme-schemas
4.1Kshopify-storefront-graphql
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.
3.8Kshopify-functions
Shopify Functions allow developers to customize the backend logic that powers parts of Shopify. Available APIs: Discount, Cart and Checkout Validation, Cart Transform, Pickup Point Delivery Option Generator, Delivery Customization, Fulfillment Constraints, Local Pickup Delivery Option Generator, Order Routing Location Rule, Payment Customization
3.7Kshopify-custom-data
MUST be used first when prompts mention Metafields or Metaobjects. Use Metafields and Metaobjects to model and store custom data for your app. Metafields extend built-in Shopify data types like products or customers, Metaobjects are custom data types that can be used to store bespoke data structures. Metafield and Metaobject definitions provide a schema and configuration for values to follow.
3.7Kshopify-polaris-app-home
Build your app's primary user interface embedded in the Shopify admin. If the prompt just mentions `Polaris` and you can't tell based off of the context what API they meant, assume they meant this API.
