CLI ANALYTICS INFRASTRUCTURE SHIPS — SHOP ID ATTRIBUTION NOW LIVE

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Shopify · Composed from the cited sources · methodology

Shopify CLI's store command analytics just gained the shop_id dimension it's been missing, closing the attribution gap between store workflows and app commands.

The store command analytics split landed in two PRs to handle a schema dependency cleanly. First came the user_id tracking [2], then the shop_id piece that required the Monorail schema update [1] — both now merged and ready. This gives downstream analytics the full attribution picture for `shopify store auth` and `shopify store execute`, finally bringing store command observability to parity with app workflows. In parallel, oclif bumped to 4.23.0 [3] with readme generation improvements, and the CLI trimmed down manifest.json generation for packages that don't need it [4]. Over in Hydrogen, test infrastructure got a critical fix [5] — two upgrade flow tests were failing because `getPackageManager` was shelling out to `npm prefix` in a global context [6], which npm now rejects. That's patched.
