Connect the right store without sharing credentials in chat.
Shopify authorization establishes the store relationship. TaskerArmy then verifies the active theme, staging workflow and any storefront access needed for previews.
A valid Shopify connection gives TaskerArmy the tenant-scoped theme context required for audits, staging work and reviewable sessions.
Use Shopify OAuth from the intended store account.
Enter the myshopify.com domain or open TaskerArmy from Shopify Admin and approve the requested scopes. The person authorizing the connection must have permission to install and manage apps for that store.
The shop domain identifies the Shopify installation, not a customer-supplied tenant id.
TaskerArmy resolves the store through the verified Shopify installation and the authenticated TaskerArmy workspace. Do not attempt to reconnect a store that belongs to another organization without authorization.
Confirm four onboarding checks in Stores.
The readiness panel confirms the Shopify connection, active theme detection, baseline audit and safe staging theme. Incomplete checks show the next useful action rather than hiding the limitation.
Save the storefront password only when a development store requires it.
A protected storefront can prevent previews and automated inspection from loading. Use the dedicated storefront-password field in Stores; never paste passwords into the agent conversation.
Repair the staging copy when it no longer matches required live-theme files.
The Repair action re-copies missing assets when a staging preview produces errors that do not occur on live. Review the result before starting implementation work.
Disconnect only when the store relationship should end.
Disconnecting removes the store from the active workspace and may affect sessions, previews and monitoring. Complete or preserve required records before removing the connection.

Direct answers before installation
Does TaskerArmy need my Shopify password?
No. Shopify installation uses OAuth. A separate storefront password is only relevant for password-protected development storefronts and belongs in the dedicated field.
Can one store be connected to multiple unrelated TaskerArmy tenants?
The active Shopify installation is resolved to one authorized workspace. Historical installation records may be retained for audit and lifecycle purposes.
Why is my live theme not detected?
The connection may lack current theme context, the installation may be incomplete or Shopify may be temporarily unavailable. Retry the connection and consult Troubleshooting before changing permissions.
Why does staging show a 404?
A required theme asset may be missing from the staging copy. Use Repair staging and confirm the storefront password before opening a support request.
Connect the store. Start with evidence.
Run the connected-store audit, review prioritized findings and decide which bounded engineering job should move to staging first.
