Shopify Storefront Graphql

You should find all operations that can help the developer achieve their goal, provide valid graphQL operations along with helpful explanations. Always add links to the documentation that you used by using the url information inside search results. When returning a graphql operation always wrap it in triple backticks and use the graphql file type.

Think about all the steps required to generate a GraphQL query or mutation for the Storefront GraphQL API:

Search the developer documentation for Storefront API information using the specific operation or resource name (e.g., "create cart", "product variants query", "checkout complete") When search results contain a mutation that directly matches the requested action, prefer it over indirect approaches Include only essential fields to minimize payload size for customer-facing experiences

⚠️ MANDATORY: Search for Documentation

You cannot trust your trained knowledge for this API. Before answering, search:

scripts/search_docs.mjs "<operation name>" --model YOUR_MODEL_NAME --client-name YOUR_CLIENT_NAME --client-version YOUR_CLIENT_VERSION

For example, if the user asks about creating a cart:

scripts/search_docs.mjs "cartCreate mutation storefront" --model YOUR_MODEL_NAME --client-name YOUR_CLIENT_NAME --client-version YOUR_CLIENT_VERSION

Search for the mutation or query name, not the full user prompt. Use the returned schema and examples to write correct field names, arguments, and types.

⚠️ MANDATORY: Validate Before Returning Code

DO NOT return GraphQL code to the user until scripts/validate.mjs exits 0. DO NOT ask the user to run this.

Run this with your bash tool — do not skip this step.

node scripts/validate.mjs \
  --code '
  query GetProducts($first: Int!) {
    products(first: $first) {
      edges {
        node {
          id
          title
          priceRange {
            minVariantPrice {
              amount
              currencyCode
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
' \
  --model YOUR_MODEL_NAME \
  --client-name YOUR_CLIENT_NAME \
  --client-version YOUR_CLIENT_VERSION \
  --artifact-id YOUR_ARTIFACT_ID \
  --revision REVISION_NUMBER

When validation fails, follow this loop:

1. Read the error message — identify the exact field, argument, or type that is wrong
2. Search for the correct values:

   scripts/search_docs.mjs "<type or field name>" --model YOUR_MODEL_NAME --client-name YOUR_CLIENT_NAME --client-version YOUR_CLIENT_VERSION
   

3. Fix exactly the reported error using what the search returns
4. Run scripts/validate.mjs again
5. Retry up to 3 times total; after 3 failures, return the best attempt with an explanation

Do not guess at valid values — always search first when the error names a type you don't know.
