Run a Shopify App Store Self-Review in Claude Code Before Submission

Review a local app against the current Shopify self-review requirements, then report concrete evidence, uncertain items and inapplicable groups. Rehearse with a minimal sample project.

中文

Setup for Claude Code

Use Claude Code and a disposable local Shopify app folder. The pinned skill needs network access to fetch Shopify's current review checklist. The review scope is evidence available locally before formal submission.

Open Shopify's pinned source below and copy the complete skills/shopify-app-store-review directory into .claude/skills/shopify-app-store-review in a disposable project, keeping the included scripts and references.
Open the project in the selected client and load /shopify-app-store-review. Follow the pinned skill's tool preflight for the requested task.

Example task

Provide a scratch Shopify app folder with a README that says it has no theme app extension and a minimal manifest. Run /shopify-app-store-review and ask it to cite local evidence, list conditional groups it skips, and identify requirements it cannot settle from the supplied files.

Expected result

The report distinguishes likely passing, likely failing and needs review. The conditional group for theme app extensions is skipped when the skill confirms none is present. Gaps in the toy files stay visible as uncertain.
