Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `metadata.json`).
It sits in Backend & APIs, covering GraphQL, Third-party API integration and REST APIs. It works with Shopify and GraphQL. The repository describes itself as: An unappealing collection of Claude Skills and resources.
When your agent uses it
- Building Shopify apps
- Implementing checkout customizations
- Creating admin interfaces
- Developing themes
Example prompts
- “/shopify”
Requirements
- Python 3
- Node.js
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- App Development
- Extension Development
- Theme Development
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1056d29. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
shopifynpmpython
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
shopify.devpolaris.shopify.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Shopify loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 165 tokens; SKILL.md has 500 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 500 words (~1,944 tokens).
“Comprehensive guide for building on Shopify platform: apps, extensions, themes, and API integrations.”
