App Doctor gains a dependency automation check, organization list gets a JSON schema

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

Shopify's CLI picks up two new contracts for tooling consumers: a low-severity App Doctor check for missing dependency-automation config, and a typed JSON schema for organization list.

Check for dependency automation configuration files in App Doctor Shopify/cli

by jplhomer

App Doctor now adds MISSING_DEPENDENCY_SECURITY_AUTOMATION, a low-severity check worth -5 points, satisfied by a standard Dependabot or Renovate configuration file. It follows the removal of package-manager CVE audits and deliberately avoids interpreting CI workflows or shell commands, so projects with dependency automation already in place will not lose points.

Add JSON schema to organization list Shopify/cli

by dmerand

shopify organization list --json is now a typed, discoverable contract backed by the strict OrganizationListResult schema, with generated --json-schema documentation. The result also carries public organization data the command can return without a second API request, which saves JSON consumers a round trip.
