**Getting started:** Follow the README to run the development server on port 8000.

**Limitations:** This repository is an incomplete training scaffold, not a working production connector. Container/object enumeration currently returns `null`, the Shopify API version is old, and the server logs Basic Auth details. Review and complete these areas before testing with real credentials or data.
