How do I install the Moltline Shopify Prep MCP server?

Moltline Shopify Prep is a hosted endpoint at https://mcp.moltlinestudio.com/shopify, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 6 exposed · ~1,877 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
bulk_price_change ~386

Apply one pricing rule across a list of prices and show the effect. PREMIUM (license). Percentage first, then the flat amount, then rounding — stated explicitly because the order changes the answer. Typical input {"prices": [19.99, 24.5], "change_pct": 10, "charm_ending": ".99"} returns {"rows": [{"was": 19.99, "now": 21.99}, {"was": 24.5, "now": 26.99}], "total_was": 44.49, "total_now": 48.98, "uplift_pct": 10.09}. Use when repricing a catalogue before export. Not for what a price nets you after Shopify's fees — that is payout_estimate. Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"} (for example {"error": "prices must contain at least one price"}). Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.

NameTypeReqDescription
change_flatnumberFlat amount applied after the percentage. Default 0.
change_pctnumberPercentage change applied first, e.g. 10 to raise by 10% or -5 to cut by 5%. Default 0.
charm_endingstringForce every price to end in these cents, e.g. ".99" or ".95". Applied after rounding. Empty by default.
pricesarrayyesCurrent prices, at least one, each greater than 0.
round_tonumberRounding increment applied last, e.g. 0.01 or 0.05. Default 0.01.

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

metafield_key_check ~267

Validate a metafield namespace and key before you define it. FREE. Shopify metafield namespaces and keys are lowercase alphanumerics and underscores; a capital letter or a dash is rejected at definition time, usually after the rest of the import has already run. Typical input {"namespace": "custom", "key": "Care-Instructions"} returns {"ok": false, "problems": ["key: dashes and capitals are not allowed"], "suggested_key": "care_instructions"}. Use when designing metafields. Not for the CSV column that carries them — that is product_csv_check. Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"}. Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.

NameTypeReqDescription
keystringyesThe metafield key, e.g. "care_instructions".
namespacestringyesThe metafield namespace, e.g. "custom".
value_typestringThe intended metafield type, echoed back for your record, e.g. "single_line_text_field". Not validated against Shopify's type list, which changes.

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

payout_estimate ~315

Estimate what actually lands in the bank after processing fees. PREMIUM (license). Typical input {"order_total": 84.5, "fee_pct": 2.9, "fee_fixed": 0.3, "orders": 120, "refund_rate_pct": 4} returns {"gross": 10140.0, "fees": 330.06, "refunds": 405.6, "net_payout": 9404.34, "effective_fee_pct": 3.26}. Use for cash-flow planning. Not as an authoritative fee schedule: rates depend on your plan, country and card mix, so pass your own. Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"}. Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.

NameTypeReqDescription
fee_fixednumberFixed fee per transaction. Default 0.30.
fee_pctnumberPercentage fee per transaction. Default 2.9 — a common published rate, not a promise about your account.
order_totalnumberyesValue of one order including anything the processor takes a percentage of. Must be greater than 0.
ordersintegerHow many orders to model. Default 1.
refund_rate_pctnumberShare of order value refunded, as a percentage. Default 0.

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

product_csv_check ~311

Check a product CSV's header row against Shopify's current columns. FREE. Catches the failure that wastes the most time: a template copied from an out-of-date guide, using column names Shopify renamed. Typical input {"header_row": ["Handle", "Title", "Body (HTML)", "Variant Price"]} returns {"ok": false, "missing_required": [], "renamed": [{"found": "Handle", "use": "URL handle"}, ...], "unrecognised": [], "verdict": "..."}. Use before an import, on the header row alone. Not for whether the values in the rows are valid — check a handle with url_handle and a metafield key with metafield_key_check. Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"} (for example {"error": "header_row must contain at least one column name"}). Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.

NameTypeReqDescription
header_rowarrayyesThe CSV's first row as a list of column names, exactly as written in the file, e.g. ["Handle", "Title", "Variant Price"].
modestring"new" when creating products, where Shopify requires only Title; "update" when changing existing ones, where it also requires URL handle. Default "new".

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

url_handle ~254

Turn a product title into a valid, unique Shopify URL handle. FREE. Shopify handles are lowercase, may contain letters, numbers and dashes, and may not contain spaces. Typical input {"title": "Men's Merino Wool Socks (2-Pack)"} returns {"handle": "mens-merino-wool-socks-2-pack", "valid": true, "changed": true, "collisions": []}. Use when generating handles for an import, or checking one you already have. Not for validating a whole header row — that is product_csv_check. Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"} (for example {"error": "title must not be empty"}). Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.

NameTypeReqDescription
existingHandles already used in the store or the file, so a collision can be reported and a suffixed alternative suggested. Optional.
titlestringyesThe product title or a candidate handle, e.g. "Men's Merino Wool Socks".

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.

variant_matrix ~344

Count the variants a set of options produces, and flag the ceilings. FREE. Option counts multiply, so three modest lists become a number nobody intended. Typical input {"options": {"Size": ["S", "M", "L"], "Colour": ["Black", "Navy"]}} returns {"option_count": 2, "variant_count": 6, "within_limits": true, "per_option": {"Size": 3, "Colour": 2}}. Use before building an import file, to find out whether the catalogue needs splitting into several products. Not for validating the resulting CSV's columns — that is product_csv_check. Errors: on invalid, missing, or malformed input this tool never raises a protocol error — it returns {"error": "<what is wrong and how to fix it>"} (for example {"error": "options must contain at least one option"}). Every call is read-only and idempotent, so after correcting the input it is always safe to retry.

NameTypeReqDescription
list_rowsbooleanWhen true, also return every variant combination. Off by default because the list can be very large.
max_optionsintegerCeiling on distinct option names. Default 3.
max_variantsintegerCeiling to check against. Default 2048, which is the limit Shopify announced on 15 October 2025, up from 100. Override it if your plan differs.
optionsobjectyesOption names mapped to their values, e.g. {"Size": ["S", "M"], "Colour": ["Black"]}. Each list needs at least one value.

Structured output declared, but exposes no named fields.

No examples provided.
