Shopify CLI 4.7.0 ships with source maps for UI extensions and profiling for app functions, tightening the loop for production debugging.

Shopify CLI 4.7.0 [1] brings two features developers have been asking for: serve UI extension source maps during app dev and profiling for app function runs. The release also fixes GraphQL scalar types and updates Javy and function-runner, smoothing out the WASM toolchain. A companion cli-kit update [2] adds flag validation across the board. Meanwhile, a housekeeping PR [3] pruned 14 stale knip config entries, cleaning up dependency checks so the tooling warns about real issues, not its own cruft. The 4.7.0 release notes say it's a "[Feature] Add profiling to app function run" [1], which is exactly the signal you need to jump into the new profiler before your next performance investigation. Overall, this is a low-risk upgrade with immediate benefits for anyone doing local extension work.

Action items

→ Upgrade to @shopify/cli@4.7.0 before your next deploy to get source maps and profiling Shopify/cli [plan]
→ Review the knip config cleanup to ensure your CI isn't missing stale entries Shopify/cli [monitor]
