CLI adds subscription migration commands
GitHub credential leak risks prompted urgent fixes, plus new demo data prompts and store plan display.
What shipped: The Shopify CLI added app subscription migration commands, including a list command [1][2], and started asking about demo data during interactive dev store creation [3]. Store list now shows each store's plan [4] and filters by type server-side. Under the hood: Security fixes prevent GitHub credentials from being logged locally [5] and redact store signup JWTs from analytics payloads [6], with JWTs read from stdin [7]. Sensitive admin URLs are no longer printed [8], and a merge addresses potential 500 errors in reports [9]. The CLI also clarifies unexpected organization prompts in app dev and store delete flows [10][11]. Why it matters: If your CI logs CLI output, the git author fix stops credentials from leaking into logs, a critical update for shared runners [5]. The new demo data prompt changes interactive store creation behavior; automate accordingly [3]. The subscription migration commands open a new workflow for managing plan changes, so review the CLI's help output for the new list command. The hydrogen CLI bumped to 13.0.4 [12], and Node.js version requirements in hydrogen docs were corrected [13]. Also: The CLI added hidden App Doctor commands [14] and store create examples [15], plus a store list context banner [16]—all minor polish for daily users.
