# Shopify Liquid LSP

> Shopify's plugin that gives Claude Code the Liquid language server, so it sees theme check errors and Liquid docs as it edits themes.

Shopify's own plugin that adds the Shopify Liquid language server to Claude Code. When Claude Code works on a Shopify theme, it starts the language server that ships with Shopify CLI (shopify theme language-server) for .liquid and .json files, so the agent gets the code intelligence an editor would.

What the language server offers
- Theme checks: Shopify's checks for errors and best practices in theme files
- Code completion and documentation for Liquid
- Documentation on hover
- Code navigation
- Code formatting
In Claude Code, that means the agent sees theme check errors and warnings after it edits a file, and can look up definitions, references and hover docs.

How to install it
In Claude Code, run /plugin install liquid-lsp@claude-plugins-official from Anthropic's marketplace. Shopify also publishes it in its own marketplace: /plugin marketplace add Shopify/liquid-skills, then /plugin install liquid-lsp@liquid-skills.

Good to know
- It needs Shopify CLI on your PATH. Install it with npm install -g @shopify/cli (which needs Node.js), or with Homebrew: brew tap shopify/shopify, then brew install shopify-cli. Check it with shopify theme language-server --help.
- It adds the language server only, no skills or MCP server. Shopify's companion Liquid Skills plugin, in the same marketplace, teaches Liquid fundamentals, theme coding standards and accessibility.
- No sign-in: the language server runs on your machine.
