shopify-admin-agentic-crawler-access

shopify-admin-agentic-crawler-access is a skill for Claude Code from 40RTY-ai/shopify-admin-skills. It costs 58 tokens per session (1,841 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Shopify theme update that adds rules to robots.txt, the file that tells automated readers which store pages they may visit. It names major AI crawlers so they are explicitly allowed to read the catalogue.

In plain words
What is it for?
Checking and updating a Shopify store’s robots.txt.liquid template so GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, OAI-SearchBot, and Amazonbot can crawl the catalogue.
Why use it?
Without these rules, AI assistants may be unable to discover the store or its products. It also helps correct a missing or blocking AI-crawler configuration.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

shopify-admin-agentic-crawler-access scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 177 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Purpose

If your robots.txt doesn't address the AI crawlers by name — or worse, disallows them — assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity may never read your store, so you simply don't exist to AI shoppers. Shopify generates robots.txt from a theme template (templates/robots.txt.liquid); this skill reads that template and appends explicit allow rules for the major AI user-agents (with a clear, idempotent managed block) so foundational models and AI search are permitted to crawl your pages. Fixes the agentiq.report finding robots-ai-rules.

Prerequisites

  • Authenticated Shopify CLI session (shopify auth login --store <domain>)
  • Required API scopes: read_themes, write_themes

Parameters

All skills accept these universal parameters:

Parameter Type Required Default Description
store string yes Store domain (e.g., mystore.myshopify.com)
format string no human Output format: human (default) or json
dry_run bool no true Preview the new robots.txt.liquid without writing (defaults ON — this edits the live theme)

Skill-specific parameters:

Parameter Type Required Default Description
theme_id string no Theme GID to edit (defaults to the published MAIN theme)
agents string no GPTBot,OAI-SearchBot,ChatGPT-User,ClaudeBot,Claude-Web,PerplexityBot,Perplexity-User,Google-Extended,Amazonbot,Applebot-Extended Comma list of AI user-agents to allow
mode string no allow allow (add Allow rules) or audit (report current state only, no write)

Safety

⚠️ Step 2 (themeFilesUpsert) modifies a file in the LIVE published theme. A malformed robots.txt.liquid can de-index the store from ALL search engines. This skill writes only inside a clearly-delimited # BEGIN agentic-crawler-access … # END managed block (re-running replaces just that block, never your other rules), defaults dry_run: true, and recommends duplicating the theme first. Review the full proposed file before setting dry_run: false.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
