Shop Buddy
Add Shop Buddy to Claude, ChatGPT, or your coding agent
Then ask for a change in plain English. Every change is made on a private copy of your theme, you see before-and-after screenshots, and nothing goes live until you tap Publish.
Use it from Claude or ChatGPT
No coding tools needed. You add Shop Buddy as a connector once, then talk to it like anything else in the chat.
Claude (web or desktop)
- Open Settings, then Connectors.
- Choose Add custom connector. Name it Shop Buddy and paste the URL below.
- Click Add, then Connect. A tab opens: choose Continue with Shopify (or create an account) and click Allow.
https://getshopbuddy.vercel.app/api/mcpThe Free plan allows one custom connector.
ChatGPT
- Open Settings, then Apps & Connectors, then Advanced, and turn on Developer mode (paid plans).
- Choose Create. Name it Shop Buddy, paste the URL below, and pick OAuth for authentication.
- Click Create, then Connect. A tab opens: choose Continue with Shopify (or create an account) and click Allow.
https://getshopbuddy.vercel.app/api/mcpMenu names are as of September 2026 and may move.
Then say
- “Connect my store.” The first time, Shop Buddy hands you a page where you paste a Theme Access password from Shopify. About three minutes, done in your browser, never through the chat.
- “Change my announcement bar to say free shipping over $75 and show me before and after.”
- “My store shows: Liquid error (sections/header line 515): Could not find asset snippets/icon-caret.liquid. Fix it.”
You get a preview link, screenshots, and a one-tap publish link. Roll back with one tap.
Use it from a coding agent
Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code, or Codex. The agent signs in through your browser: click Allow in the tab that opens. No keys.
VS Code / Copilot
Adds the server to VS Code's MCP list. Approve in the browser tab that follows.
Claude Code
One command in your terminal. The first tool call opens the sign-in tab (or run /mcp).
claude mcp add --transport http shopbuddy https://getshopbuddy.vercel.app/api/mcpCodex
One command in your terminal, then `codex mcp login shopbuddy` opens the sign-in tab.
