setting-up

To configure MCP servers for Shopware plugin development, run an interactive setup assistant that guides you through prerequisites checks, generates .mcp-php-tooling.json and .mcp-js-tooling.json files, and validates permissions across native or containerized environments.

MCP server wiring for Shopware dev tooling is a structured configuration process that connects development tools to your project. It involves generating JSON configuration files for PHP and JS environments, setting permissions, and validating the setup to ensure a ready-to-use state.

Yes, Shopware MCP setup works in containerized environments. The configuration flow explicitly covers permission setup and validation across both native and containerized systems to ensure the dev-tooling suite functions correctly.

You generate .mcp-php-tooling.json and .mcp-js-tooling.json files by running an interactive plugin setup flow. The assistant creates these configuration files automatically and validates them to ensure correct MCP server wiring.

Shopware MCP servers may not work after configuration if post-setup steps like permission adjustments or restarts were skipped. The setup includes a final validation phase to check config files and ensure all servers are fully enabled.

Yes, setting up Shopware dev tooling requires specific prerequisites. The setup process begins with interactive prerequisites checks to verify your environment is ready before generating configuration files and wiring MCP servers.
