About storedata
storedata is a local bridge to the HasData Shopify MCP server for clients that need public storefront catalog data. It provides read-only collection and product queries, returning upstream results as JSON.
Key features
- 01List collections by storefront URL
- 02Filter products by collection handle
- 03Paginate collection and product results
- 04Return product variants, prices, and inventory status
- 05Provide a CLI and stdio MCP server
Use cases
- 01Browse collections in public Shopify storefronts
- 02Read store products and variants by category
- 03Retrieve product images and prices in a client
MCP support
It provides MCP clients with collection and product query tools, forwarding calls to the HasData Shopify MCP server. The interface reads public storefront data only and has no cart, checkout, order, or payment features.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

Details
From the project READMEstoredata
storedata is a small local bridge to the hosted HasData
Shopify MCP server, which returns public Shopify
storefront data as JSON. Point it at a storefront URL
and it lists that store's collections — id, title,
handle, description and image for each one — and it
pulls the store's products, optionally narrowed to a
single collection by handle. Both reads page with a
limit (up to 250) and a page number.
The bridge keeps no catalogue of its own. It answers the tool list locally, exactly as captured from the live endpoint, and forwards each tool call upstream, returning whatever comes back untouched. The captured surface is two read-only fetches over public storefronts: there is no cart, checkout, order or payment tool in it, and no store-owner contact data is returned.
Tools
hasdata_shopify_collections_getCollections— list a storefront's collections. Required:url(the Shopify store URL). Optional:limitandpagefor pagination. Returns each collection's id, title, handle, description, image and timestamps. The returned handles feed the products tool when you want one category at a time.hasdata_shopify_products_getProducts— pull a storefront's products. Required:url. Optional:collection(a collection handle to filter by), pluslimitandpage. Returns product id, title, handle, vendor, product type, tags, body HTML, images, variants with prices, SKUs and inventory status, and timestamps.
Configuration
HASDATA_SHOPIFY_MCP_URL(optional) — override the upstream endpoint. Defaults tohttps://mcp.hasdata.com/mcp?apis=shopify. (The override hook is this rebuild's own labelled reconstruction.)HASDATA_API_KEY(optional) — when set, every upstream request carries anx-api-key: <key>header, for the caller's own HasData API key. When it is not set, no key header is sent. (The header name and the env name are pinned by the original's registry record; forwarding the key from this env var is a labelled reconstruction — the original surface was captured keyless.)
Forwarding mechanics
On the first tool call the client opens a streamable
HTTP session upstream: a JSON-RPC initialize request
(protocolVersion 2025-03-26, clientInfo name
storedata), then a notifications/initialized
notification, then the tools/call request carrying
the caller's arguments unchanged. When the upstream
answers initialize with an Mcp-Session-Id header,
that value rides on every later request of the
session, which is reused for the life of the process.
Replies may arrive as plain JSON or as server-sent
events; both are read.
Successful upstream results pass through verbatim,
including any isError flag the upstream sets.
Failures — a JSON-RPC error, a non-2xx status, an
unreadable response, or a request that cannot be
completed — come back as an isError result whose
text starts with storedata error: (this rendering
is this rebuild's own labelled reconstruction).
CLI
Each tool is also a subcommand taking one JSON argument string:
npx @reneturcios/storedata hasdata_shopify_collections_getCollections '{"url":"https://b2bdemoexperience.myshopify.com"}'
npx @reneturcios/storedata hasdata_shopify_products_getProducts '{"url":"https://b2bdemoexperience.myshopify.com","collection":"frontpage"}'
npx @reneturcios/storedata --version
Exit codes: 0 on success, 1 on an isError
result, 2 on a usage error.
MCP server
npx -y @reneturcios/storedata mcp
MCP client config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"storedata": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@reneturcios/storedata", "mcp"]
}
}
}
Docker
docker run -i ghcr.io/cloudcorprecords/storedata
docker run --rm ghcr.io/cloudcorprecords/storedata --version
The container's default command is mcp, so the first
form is a stdio MCP server; any other arguments reach
the CLI normally.
Development
npm install
npm run build
npm test
npm run dev
The test suite runs entirely against a stubbed JSON-RPC upstream — no live network calls.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
