Shopify dev MCP not working on Cursor

Agentic Commerce

I’m getting the error below when I install the MCP through these docs for Cursor.

Anyone else have the same issue?

Already tried that @Geard_Roas but unfortunately I’m still getting the same error

That seems to work but there’s this error when I configure the mcp.json file:

2025-10-29 22:00:31.518 [info] Starting new stdio process with command: cd /home/djordje/code/shopify-mcp && npx shopify-dev-mcp

"shopify-dev-mcp": {
  "command": "cd",
  "args": ["/home/djordje/code/shopify-mcp", "&&", "npx", "shopify-dev-mcp"]
}

I’m also not keen on doing it this way as I’d have to manually update it every so often.

I’m getting this as well @Evonux - can you ellaborate on your fix?

UPDATE:

This was solved (for my part) by cleaning npm cache:

npm cache clean --force

Additionally, removing your npx folder under ...AppData/Local/npm-cache/_npx

Running rm -rf ~/.npm/_npx did in fact fix the issue, thanks @Joakim !
