SpritesAdd Sprites to Lovable
Available on Custom MCP chat connectors are available on all Lovable plans. You need a Sprites account with Shopify already connected — the connector acts on that connection, so Lovable never handles a Shopify credential.
Open Connectors
In Lovable, open Connectors and scroll to the bottom of the list, past the prebuilt catalogue.

The Custom card labelled MCP opens the form for any remote MCP server that is not already in the catalogue. Paste the Sprites endpoint and give it a name.

Complete the Sprites consent screen. The connection is yours; an admin can turn custom MCP servers on or off for everyone as a group under Connectors → Admin settings → Chat connectors, but individual ones stay private to whoever connected them.

AllowCancelKnow what a chat connector is for
A chat connector gives Lovable context while you build. It does not become part of the app you ship — Sprites informs what Lovable writes, and the running app talks to whatever you configure for it separately.
Official Shopify MCP vs Sprites MCP
Shopify runs its own MCP server at claude.ai/directory/connectors/shopify. Here is what each one covers, so you can pick the one that fits in Lovable — or connect both.
Shopify publishes its own connector in Claude’s directory, approved from your Shopify admin. It creates and updates products, collections and inventory, creates percentage-off discount codes, and reads orders, customers and analytics. It cannot edit a live theme, change store settings, issue refunds or cancel orders, and batch status changes stop at 50 items. Separately, every store exposes a public Storefront MCP endpoint for shoppers’ agents.
| Shopify officialclaude.ai/directory/connectors/shopify | Sprites MCPapproval-gated | |
|---|---|---|
| Products and inventory | Creates and updates products, prices, SKUs and stock levels | Reads them; writes product descriptions and SEO fields, never prices or stock |
| Orders and customers | Read only | Not read; Sprites works on the catalogue and content |
| Catalogue-wide SEO | One product at a time; batches stop at 50 | SEO titles and descriptions across every product in one approved run |
| Content and SEO | Product titles and descriptions | Pages, blog posts, product copy and metadata, written for search |
| Before a change applies | Applied when the tool is called, within the access you approved | Drafts and diffs you approve; publishing is a separate click |
If you want to update products, stock and discount codes from a chat, Shopify’s own connector does exactly that. Use Sprites when the job is search and content: SEO fields across the whole catalogue, collection pages and blog posts written to rank, and product copy in the store’s voice — with nothing touching prices or inventory, and every change approved first.
Run the first prompt
Ask Lovable this. It routes to a Sprites door, which reads your Shopify account and answers — no account to name, no confirmation to give first.
- With Sprites, which of our products are missing SEO titles or meta descriptions?
- Ask Sprites to list every product in the summer collection with price and inventory.
- Use Sprites to create a collection page for "gifts under $50" and draft it in Shopify.
- Have Sprites rewrite the product descriptions in the summer collection.
- With Sprites, build Meta creative from our three best-selling SKUs.
Open Connectors; Sprites shows as connected, and the chat can answer a question about your account while you build.
What Lovable can do with Shopify
The same doors, whichever client you are in. What it builds can be shaped by what actually converts: a landing page written against the search terms that are really paying, rather than against a guess.
SEO for every product at once
Missing SEO titles and meta descriptions written across the whole catalogue in one approved run, with any failures listed for a retry.
Read the whole catalogue
Every product, variant and collection, uncapped, and filterable by tag, collection, status or sales channel.
Publish collection pages
Manual or tag-based smart collections with descriptions and SEO fields, proposed for your approval.
Refresh product copy at scale
Descriptions rewritten in the store’s voice, proposed as a set you review before anything lands.
Creative from real products
Ads built from the actual catalogue — price, variant, image — rather than a model's guess at your range.
Store blog without a second tool
Posts drafted into the Shopify blog through the same connector as everything else.
How approvals work here
Lovable renders tool results as text, so a Shopify change comes back written out rather than as a card. The approval waits for you in Sprites — open it there and the same run continues. Nothing is applied until you approve it.
What it reads
- Products, variants, collections, inventory and pricing
- The sales channels each product is published on
- Store pages, blog posts and their SEO metadata
What it can change
- Collection and landing pages, and store blog posts
- Product descriptions, SEO titles, meta descriptions, tags and status
- Never prices or inventory, and nothing without an approval
When it does not work in Lovable
Three things go wrong in this client specifically, and each has a one-line fix.
The Custom MCP card is missing.
An admin has switched custom MCP servers off for the workspace under Connectors → Admin settings → Chat connectors. It is a group toggle rather than a per-server one.
The built app cannot reach Sprites.
It is not meant to. A chat connector is build-time context; a shipped app needs its own integration.
Lovable answers about the app rather than the account.
Name the channel — "read the Google Ads search terms and write the hero around the ones converting" — so the request is unambiguous.
Shopify and Lovable: questions
Which URL do I paste into Lovable?
https://mcp.sprites.ai/mcp. There is one endpoint and every client uses it — every OAuth grant is bound to exactly that address, so a variant of it will not be honoured.
Can Lovable change my Shopify account without asking?
Lovable renders tool results as text, so a Shopify change comes back written out rather than as a card. The approval waits for you in Sprites — open it there and the same run continues. Nothing is applied until you approve it.
Do I need a Shopify API key or developer token?
No. Shopify is connected once inside Sprites through Shopify Admin, and the connector acts on that connection. Lovable never sees a credential for it.
Why Lovable for Shopify specifically?
What it builds can be shaped by what actually converts: a landing page written against the search terms that are really paying, rather than against a guess.
Is there an official Shopify MCP server?
Several. Every store answers at {shop}.myshopify.com/api/mcp with no authentication, for catalogue search, carts and policies. For merchants, Shopify’s own connector for Claude creates and updates products, collections, inventory and percentage discounts, and reads orders, customers and analytics. Sprites is separate: it works on your catalogue’s SEO and content, and never on prices or stock.
Do I need a Shopify Partner account?
No. Connect a custom app you create in your own Shopify admin and paste its access token, or use the standard OAuth connect. Neither needs a Partner account.
Keep going
The same Lovable connector reaches every other channel — nothing else to add.
