Shopify change tracking,
without the guesswork.
Answers for agencies evaluating a lightweight Shopify app monitoring service.
What is included in the $3 Agency Lite plan?
Agency Lite includes profiles for up to 10 Shopify apps, one Slack alert destination, app-specific impact matching, a standardized client readiness report, and complete CSV, JSON, and ICS exports.
How does app-specific matching work?
For each app, you declare its type, current API version, and Shopify surfaces. Patchquarter compares those signals with every verified change and separates action-required, review, and monitor items.
Do I need to keep Codex or my computer running?
No. Patchquarter checks official Shopify sources on its own schedule in the cloud. When a new verified change matches one of your app profiles, it can post to your connected Slack channel automatically.
Does Patchquarter scan client repositories?
No. Agency Lite uses only the app profile you provide. It does not read source code, open pull requests, or store client repositories. Those heavier workflows are intentionally outside the $3 plan.
Does Patchquarter replace Shopify documentation or app testing?
No. Every change links to first-party Shopify evidence. Patchquarter turns that evidence into a planning queue, but each team must validate the impact against its own implementation before deployment.
