HYDROGEN 13.0.0 LANDS IN CLI, TEST SUITE GETS FILESYSTEM OVERHAUL

Shopify CLI is shipping Hydrogen 13.0.0, a major version bump that brings the latest Hydrogen release to developers running shopify hydrogen commands.

The CLI bundled @shopify/cli-hydrogen@13.0.0 [1], jumping two minor versions from 11.1.10 and pulling in all upstream Hydrogen improvements in one shot. This is the kind of dependency update that matters: it's not a patch, it's a feature release, so check the Hydrogen release notes to see what new capabilities you're getting. Meanwhile, the test infrastructure across CLI got a significant refresh [2][3]. Two test suites removed filesystem mocks entirely, replacing them with real temporary directories that run actual I/O operations. This pattern shift makes tests less brittle and more representative of what happens in production. The refactors hit extension.test.ts and include-assets-step.test.ts [4][5], eliminating coupling to implementation details and following the testing standards Shopify is standardizing across the codebase.
