Shop Buddy

Let your AI coding agent change your Shopify theme safely. Every edit lands on an unpublished staging theme. Shop Buddy validates it with Theme Check, screenshots before/after on mobile and desktop with a plain-language summary of what changed, and you approve with one tap. Rollback is one tap. The live theme is never edited directly.

Site and one-click install: https://getshopbuddy.vercel.app/install

Add to Cursor Add to VS Code npm

# Claude Code (hosted MCP, signs in through your browser)
claude mcp add --transport http shopbuddy https://getshopbuddy.vercel.app/api/mcp

# Claude Code plugin (adds the skill too)
claude plugin marketplace add tmill313/shopbuddy-plugin
claude plugin install shopbuddy@shopbuddy-marketplace

# Codex
codex mcp add shopbuddy --url https://getshopbuddy.vercel.app/api/mcp

# Local CLI (no account needed for local mode)
npx shopbuddy

Claude (web/desktop) and ChatGPT: add a custom connector with https://getshopbuddy.vercel.app/api/mcp. The agent opens a browser tab; sign in or create an account there and click Allow. No keys.

How it works

  1. shopbuddy_start_change duplicates the live theme into a staging theme and pulls it into a server-side working copy.
  2. The agent reads, searches and writes files, runs Theme Check with shopbuddy_validate, then shopbuddy_push_preview uploads to staging and captures before/after screenshots, each visual change attributed to its section.
  3. shopbuddy_submit and shopbuddy_request_publish hand the store owner a one-tap approval link. Owners can opt a store into trusted publishing so low-risk changes publish on request, always logged and one tap from shopbuddy_rollback.

What is in this repo

This is the public companion to the hosted service: the Claude Code plugin and marketplace manifests, the shopbuddy skill, the MCP client config, and the MCP Registry manifest (io.github.tmill313/shopbuddy). The platform itself is a hosted service; the CLI ships compiled on npm as shopbuddy.
