# Shop — AI Connector Shop publishes 1 MCP tool to Claude and is listed in the ChatGPT apps directory. Marketplace availability, tool surface, verification tier, and what Node8 measured against the live endpoint. Source: https://node8.ai/ai-connectors/commerce-shopping/shop/ --- [AI Connectors](https://node8.ai/ai-connectors/) · [Commerce & Shopping](https://node8.ai/ai-connectors/commerce-shopping/) # Shop Product search across Shopify merchants and larger brands Listed in ChatGPT and Claude · 1 published tool · Community-listed [ChatGPT listing](https://chatgpt.com/plugins/shop?open_in_app) [Claude connector docs](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/build/shop-mcp) [shop.app](https://shop.app) Overview ## What Shop does Shop comes from Shopify and turns a plain description of what someone wants into product suggestions. A query can be as vague as a gift idea or as specific as boots that hold up in snow, and the results mix small local stores with large brands. Buying is completed through Shop.app rather than in the chat window. Shopify notes that money from each order goes to the brand selling the item. The example request published with the app is a search for everyday shoes that also work for exercise, which is the sort of loose, two-part requirement the search is built to take. ### Who it is for Shoppers who describe a product in general terms and want options from many independent merchants. ### What stands out Checkout is handled once by Shop.app rather than separately at each store. Availability ## Where Shop is listed Shopify Inc. ships this on both marketplaces: Shop is listed in the Claude connectors directory and in the ChatGPT apps directory, under the same publisher domain. Only 392 of the 3,150 products in this directory are listed in both marketplaces. One MCP server can serve both surfaces; what differs is each platform's listing and review process. ChatGPT listing ## In the ChatGPT apps directory Developer Shopify Inc. Filed under Other Listed since June 2026 Authentication Authenticates when installed Website [shop.app](https://shop.app) Policies published Privacy policy · Terms of service Official listing [Open in ChatGPT](https://chatgpt.com/plugins/shop?open_in_app) Snapshot August 2026 ### Example prompts from the listing - help me find comfortable everyday shoes I can also use for workouts Claude listing ## In the Claude connectors directory Shop publishes 1 tool to Claude, a deliberately narrow surface; only 0.7% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors expose fewer. The median Claude-listed connector filed under Commerce & Shopping publishes 5, so this one sits 4 tools below its bucket's median, 34th of 35. It falls in the 1-3 tools band, which holds 16.4% of the Claude directory. ### Measured against the live endpoint A direct call to the endpoint returned 1 tools, matching the 1 the listing publishes. Probed 2026-08-07. #### Tools the server actually returns - `search` Shop publishes a remote MCP endpoint. Claude connects to it over HTTP; there is nothing to install locally. Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there. Publisher Shopify Inc. Verification Community-listed (61.5% of the Claude directory) Filed under Commerce & Shopping Endpoint `https://shop.app/mcp` Documentation [Publisher setup docs](https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/build/shop-mcp) Published tools 1 · 1-3 tools band Depth rank in Commerce & Shopping 34 of 35 Snapshot August 2026 Shop is community-listed in the Claude directory, the tier 770 of 1,253 connectors sit in (61.5%). It is the default for a self-published server, and says nothing either way about quality.
