Shopware Expert: User Guide

What This Skill Is

This skill equips your OpenClaw agent with instructions, checklists, and bundled excerpts from the Shopware Developer Documentation, oriented toward Shopware 6.7 (the export prefers newer versioned doc paths). It supports work on Admin API, Store API, plugins, apps, Administration UI, classic Storefront (Twig/themes), headless/composable frontends, hosting, upgrades, and commercial extensions - with an index of ADRs for deeper architecture topics.

Full copy-paste 6.7 examples (neutral Acme vendor, verify against official docs): {baseDir}/references/SHOPWARE_67_EXAMPLES_PLUGIN_DAL.md, {baseDir}/references/SHOPWARE_67_EXAMPLES_STOREFRONT_ADMIN_CMS.md, {baseDir}/references/SHOPWARE_67_PRACTICAL_NOTES.md.

Official code guidelines (short): {baseDir}/references/CODE_GUIDELINES_ESSENTIALS.md (public API, backward compatibility, Storefront / Store API conventions). Longer excerpts: TESTING_AND_QUALITY_PART2.md (search resources/guidelines).

The AI usually reaches Shopware via HTTPS (curl or similar). Gateway tool policy (what your OpenClaw install allows beyond curl) is configured in your host config, not by this skill; see {baseDir}/references/OPENCLAW_INTEGRATION.md and {baseDir}/references/SAFETY.md.

Not exhaustive: bundled text is not a complete mirror of Shopware 6.7 or every patch release. Treat it as guidance and entry points. For merchant "how to in the Admin" (click paths, day-to-day operations), the skill points to docs.shopware.com - see {baseDir}/references/MERCHANT_USER_DOCS.md.

No companion plugin (v1)

Unlike wordpress-expert, this skill does not ship a dedicated OpenClaw plugin yet.

  • Minimal setup: curl + SHOPWARE_BASE_URL only. That is enough for eligibility and for HTTP/API-style tasks when you keep other tools disabled.
  • Broader gateway capabilities: If your host policy already allows additional tools, {baseDir}/references/TOOLING.md describes common Shopware dev workflows (e.g. bin/console). Keep allowlists narrow; see {baseDir}/references/OPENCLAW_INTEGRATION.md.
  • Benefit of a future plugin: Typed Shopware tools would be easier to audit and allowlist than ad-hoc shell/curl. Until then, follow narrow allowlists and verify API calls against official docs.

Installation Steps (Typical Flow)

On your OpenClaw gateway machine:

  1. Install the skill (e.g. ClawHub or skills/shopware-expert on the gateway host).
  2. Set environment variables - at minimum SHOPWARE_BASE_URL (host env or skills.entries["shopware-expert"].env). For Admin API work, add OAuth-related vars as documented in {baseDir}/references/AUTH.md and .env.example.
  3. Grant tools: Your gateway must allow curl for HTTPS API use. Further tool access follows your tools.allow / sandbox policy - see {baseDir}/references/OPENCLAW_INTEGRATION.md.
  4. openclaw gateway restart after plugin, allowlist, or env changes (when applicable).

Full detail: {baseDir}/README.md, {baseDir}/references/CONNECTING.md, {baseDir}/references/AUTH.md.

What You Can Expect from the AI

  • API and integration tasks: e.g. search or update entities via Admin API / Store API - the AI should use fresh HTTP responses and documented routes, not invented URLs or request bodies.
  • Extension and theme work: expects a project clone on the gateway (or clear remote workflow); may use bin/console, Composer, and file edits only when your gateway policy permits those actions.
  • Merchant-style questions: the AI should steer you to user documentation links when the task is "how to use the Admin," not code.
  • Version awareness: the AI should confirm the Shopware version and reconcile bundled excerpts with developer.shopware.com and, when needed, shopware/platform (including ADRs via {baseDir}/references/ADR_OVERVIEW.md).
  • Security: use staging, least privilege, and explicit approval for destructive work. The AI must not echo secrets - only set/unset or masked env hints.

Required Setup (Environment Variables)

Required for skill eligibility (see metadata.openclaw.requires):

  1. SHOPWARE_BASE_URL - HTTPS base URL the gateway can reach (no trailing slash), e.g. https://shop.example.com.

Common additions for Admin API automation (optional; see {baseDir}/references/AUTH.md):

  • OAuth client credentials and token URL (names may vary by your scripts), e.g. SHOPWARE_ADMIN_API_CLIENT_ID, SHOPWARE_ADMIN_API_CLIENT_SECRET, SHOPWARE_OAUTH_TOKEN_URL.

Store all secrets in env or skills.entries["shopware-expert"].env, never in chat or Git.

Important Rules for People and the AI

  • No secrets in chat or Git - see {baseDir}/references/AUTH.md.
  • Confirm Shopware version and context before non-trivial advice - see {baseDir}/references/WORKFLOWS.md (pre-flight checklist).
  • Deeper topics load from {baseDir}/references/ as needed (progressive disclosure); large topics may be split across _PART2.md, _PART3.md, etc.

When the agent should use this skill

Use for Shopware-related work: APIs, plugins, apps, Administration UI, Storefront, headless frontends, hosting, upgrades, extensions, architecture. Do not use for unrelated stacks unless the user asks for comparison.

Load {baseDir}/references/ files when the task matches (examples: CONNECTING.md, AUTH.md, TOOLING.md, APPS_VS_PLUGINS_AND_PATHS.md, CODE_GUIDELINES_ESSENTIALS.md, SHOPWARE_67_EXAMPLES_PLUGIN_DAL.md, SHOPWARE_67_EXAMPLES_STOREFRONT_ADMIN_CMS.md, SHOPWARE_67_PRACTICAL_NOTES.md, ADMIN_API.md, STORE_API.md, PLUGIN_SYSTEM.md, APP_SYSTEM.md, HEADLESS_FRONTENDS.md, INSTALLATION_AND_HOSTING.md, MERCHANT_USER_DOCS.md, SOURCES_AND_VERSIONS.md, SAFETY.md, WORKFLOWS.md). Full index: {baseDir}/references/OVERVIEW.md.

Rules for the assistant (summary)

  1. Version and environment first - Before non-trivial advice or writes, establish the target Shopware version (ask the user, or infer from composer.lock / bin/console / project files when those files are readable on the gateway). Confirm relevant env vars are set without printing secrets - only names, set/unset, or masked placeholders ({baseDir}/references/WORKFLOWS.md).
  2. 6.7-oriented, not complete - Bundled excerpts favour 6.7-era docs; they may lag patch releases or omit new changelog items. Do not assume full coverage.
  3. Verify via official sources - For breaking, security-sensitive, or API-shape-critical work, follow links in the reference files, then developer.shopware.com and shopware/platform (ADRs) as needed; reconcile with the user's actual version.
  4. Use fresh data from tools/API before writes; do not invent Admin API or Store API behaviour. For apps vs plugins and where first-party vs third-party code lives (custom/static-plugins/ vs custom/plugins/), and rules not to edit core or Store plugins, read {baseDir}/references/APPS_VS_PLUGINS_AND_PATHS.md and {baseDir}/references/SAFETY.md before proposing file edits.
  5. Never echo secrets; store credentials in host env or openclaw.json skill env - not chat.
  6. Prefer documented HTTP patterns in {baseDir}/references/TOOLING.md. Do not assume tools beyond what the session policy allows.
  7. For pure merchant Admin usage (where to click), use {baseDir}/references/MERCHANT_USER_DOCS.md and docs.shopware.com - not developer-only excerpts alone.
  8. After tools.allow, plugin, or env changes, openclaw gateway restart is often required - see {baseDir}/references/CONNECTING.md and OpenClaw docs.

Where work runs: On the OpenClaw gateway (typically HTTP to Shopware) - not inside Shopware's PHP process unless the user's setup explicitly allows it.
