Connect Shopify EA Apps to Claude Code and Other AI Tools

Why use Claude Code with your store's apps

One place for theme and app work. Edit a section in your theme and set up the matching offer or popup in the same session.
Reports on demand. Ask for a summary of every EA app's numbers before a sale or a client call.
Agencies and developers. Work across client stores from one connection: each store is added on its Connect to AI page by someone with access to that store.

How to add the EA Ecommerce Apps connector to Claude Code

You need Claude Code and access to the Shopify admin of a store with at least one EA app. The fastest way: open Connect to AI in any EA app, choose Claude Code and copy the prompt into Claude Code; it adds the server and starts the sign-in for you. To do it by hand:

Add the server. In your terminal, run claude mcp add --transport http ea-ecommerce-apps https://mcp.easyappsecom.com/mcp. Add --scope user to use it in every project.
Authenticate. In Claude Code, run /mcp, choose ea-ecommerce-apps and select Authenticate. Your browser opens the sign-in page.
Pick your store. Pick one of your EA apps; with more than one store, type the store address first.
Allow it in Shopify. Your Shopify admin opens the app's Connect to AI page. Check the store and the access, then click Allow.
Ask your first question. Back in Claude Code, ask: "What EA Apps do I have, and how are they doing?"

To remove it later, run claude mcp remove ea-ecommerce-apps, or click Disconnect on the Connect to AI page of any EA app.

Other AI tools

Any MCP client that supports remote servers connects with the same URL (transport: Streamable HTTP; sign-in: OAuth, set up automatically, no API key). On the Connect to AI page, "Other AI tool" has a prompt to paste into agents that can change their own settings, such as Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor or Windsurf, plus the settings for each tool:

Cursor: add {"mcpServers":{"ea-ecommerce-apps":{"url":"https://mcp.easyappsecom.com/mcp"}}} to ~/.cursor/mcp.json.
VS Code (Copilot agent mode): add {"servers":{"ea-ecommerce-apps":{"type":"http","url":"https://mcp.easyappsecom.com/mcp"}}} to .vscode/mcp.json.
Gemini CLI: gemini mcp add --transport http ea-ecommerce-apps https://mcp.easyappsecom.com/mcp, then /mcp auth ea-ecommerce-apps.
Codex CLI: codex mcp add ea-ecommerce-apps --url https://mcp.easyappsecom.com/mcp, then codex mcp login ea-ecommerce-apps.
Tools that only run local servers: use npx mcp-remote https://mcp.easyappsecom.com/mcp (needs Node.js).

The server is also listed in the official MCP Registry as com.easyappsecom/ea-ecommerce-apps.

Using it

"List my EA apps and their stats for the last 30 days."
"Show me what is live in Sticky Cart."
"Draft a 3-pack offer for the product in this template."
"Publish that draft." or "Undo the last change."

A terminal can't show the preview card, so ask for the publish link if you prefer to publish in your Shopify admin, or let the AI publish when you ask (if AI publishing is allowed for the store).

Safety

Drafts first. Everything the AI prepares starts as a draft with a preview card showing what shoppers will see.
You choose who publishes. Publish a draft yourself with one click, or leave "Let the AI publish changes for me" ticked when you approve the connection. Then the AI publishes only when you ask it in the chat, and your AI tool asks you to confirm. You can turn AI publishing off for a store at any time.
Every change can be undone. Publishes and deletes can be undone for 30 days from the card, the chat or your Shopify admin.
Nothing lost silently. Edits made in the app meanwhile are kept; if the same setting changed, the AI asks before overwriting it.
No customer personal data. Only totals and settings go through the connector; customer names, emails, phone numbers and addresses never do.
Every change is recorded on the Connect to AI page of each EA app, with who asked and which AI tool, next to a Disconnect button.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there an MCP server for EA Shopify apps?

Yes. EA Ecommerce Apps is a remote MCP server at https://mcp.easyappsecom.com/mcp, listed in the official MCP Registry as com.easyappsecom/ea-ecommerce-apps, with OAuth sign-in approved in your Shopify admin. It works with ChatGPT, Claude, Claude Code and other MCP clients.

What is the Claude Code command to add EA Apps?

claude mcp add --transport http ea-ecommerce-apps https://mcp.easyappsecom.com/mcp. Then run /mcp, choose ea-ecommerce-apps and select Authenticate.

Does it work with Cursor, VS Code, Gemini CLI or Codex CLI?

Yes. Any MCP client with remote servers works with the same URL. The Connect to AI page in each EA app has the settings for each tool and a prompt you can paste into your agent.

Can Claude Code publish changes to my store?

Only if you allow AI publishing for the store, and only when you ask. Otherwise Claude Code prepares drafts and you publish them in your Shopify admin. Every publish can be undone for 30 days.
