Shopify storefront MCP moved to /api/ucp/mcp: update the URL, add Sume
Shopify's storefront MCP now lives at https://{shop}/api/ucp/mcp, not /api/mcp. Update your agent, then add Sume at mcp.sume.com/mcp for product video.
Shopify's storefront MCP page now lists https://{shop}/api/ucp/mcp, under the Universal Commerce Protocol, next to the older https://{shop}/api/mcp path. If your agent still points at the old path, change the URL and add the agent profile that the new endpoint requires on every request. Then add Sume as a second server if you want the agent to make a product video from the catalog data.
I read the Shopify page on 2026-10-05; check it for the current status of the old path before you cut over.
Old and new
| Item | Old | New |
|---|---|---|
| URL | https://{shop}/api/mcp | https://{shop}/api/ucp/mcp |
| Protocol | Storefront MCP | Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP) |
| Tools listed | See the Shopify page | search_catalog, lookup_catalog, get_product, create_cart, get_cart, update_cart, cancel_cart |
| Agent profile | See the Shopify page | Required on every request |
| Checkout | See the Shopify page | Authenticated or signed |
Add Sume next to it
Sume has one hosted MCP endpoint for account, catalog, job, asset, generation and crawl tools. A remote MCP client such as Claude Code connects with two commands, then asks for a read-only tool to confirm the session.

| Step | Server | Tool |
|---|---|---|
| Find products | Shopify | search_catalog or lookup_catalog |
| Get one product | Shopify | get_product |
| Make a clip | Sume | generate_video with an idempotency_key |
| Wait for it | Sume | jobs_wait, then jobs_result |
| Build a cart | Shopify | create_cart, update_cart |
Notes
- Use dry_run first. It previews admission and cost without submitting.
- The default OAuth grant on Sume is read only (mcp:read). Paid generation needs the Write toggle on the consent page, or an API key.
- Image 1.0 and Video 1.0 are not on hosted MCP; generate_video routes to the video router instead.
- Sume's docs do not describe a Shopify connector, so passing product data from one server to the other is the agent's job.
