Implementation Reference

  • Registration and handler implementation for the 'retrieve-codebase-insights' MCP tool. Includes Zod input schema validation and logic to call the retrieveMemories helper, format results as JSON, and handle errors.
    server.tool(
      "retrieve-codebase-insights",
      {
        repositoryUrl: z.string(),
        insightTypes: z.array(z.string()).optional(),
        tags: z.array(z.string()).optional(),
        relatedFile: z.string().optional(),
        limit: z.number().optional()
      },
      async ({ repositoryUrl, insightTypes, tags, relatedFile, limit }) => {
        try {
          const memories = await retrieveMemories({
            repositoryUrl,
            insightTypes,
            tags,
            relatedFile,
            limit: limit || 10
          });
          
          return {
            content: [{
              type: "text",
              text: JSON.stringify(memories, null, 2)
            }]
          };
        } catch (error) {
          return {
            content: [{
              type: "text",
              text: `Error retrieving insights: ${(error as Error).message}`
            }],
            isError: true
          };
        }
      }
    );
  • Supporting helper function that implements the database query logic for retrieving codebase insights based on repository, types, tags, related files, and limit. Fetches base insights then populates related files and tags for each.
    export async function retrieveMemories(query: MemoryQuery): Promise<Insight[]> {
      if (!db) {
        db = await createDatabase("memory");
      }
    
      if (!db) {
        throw new Error("Database not initialized");
      }
    
      const { repositoryUrl, insightTypes, tags, relatedFile, limit } = query;
      
      // Base query
      let sql = `
        SELECT 
          i.id, 
          i.repositoryUrl, 
          i.insightType, 
          i.category, 
          i.insightContent, 
          i.timestamp
        FROM insights i
      `;
      
      const params: any[] = [repositoryUrl];
      
      // Add conditions for related files
      if (relatedFile) {
        sql += `
          JOIN relatedFiles rf ON i.id = rf.insightId
          WHERE i.repositoryUrl = ? AND rf.filePath = ?
        `;
        params.push(relatedFile);
      } else {
        sql += ` WHERE i.repositoryUrl = ?`;
      }
      
      // Add conditions for insight types
      if (insightTypes && insightTypes.length > 0) {
        sql += ` AND i.insightType IN (${insightTypes.map(() => '?').join(',')})`;
        params.push(...insightTypes);
      }
      
      // Add conditions for tags
      if (tags && tags.length > 0) {
        sql += `
          AND i.id IN (
            SELECT insightId FROM tags
            WHERE tag IN (${tags.map(() => '?').join(',')})
            GROUP BY insightId
            HAVING COUNT(DISTINCT tag) = ?
          )
        `;
        params.push(...tags, tags.length); // Ensure all tags match
      }
      
      // Add order and limit
      sql += ` ORDER BY i.timestamp DESC`;
      
      if (limit) {
        sql += ` LIMIT ?`;
        params.push(limit);
      }
      
      // Execute query
      const insights = await db.all(sql, params);
      
      // For each insight, fetch related files and tags
      for (const insight of insights) {
        // Get related files
        insight.relatedFiles = await db.all(
          `SELECT filePath FROM relatedFiles WHERE insightId = ?`,
          [insight.id]
        ).then(rows => rows.map((row: any) => row.filePath));
        
        // Get tags
        insight.tags = await db.all(
          `SELECT tag FROM tags WHERE insightId = ?`,
          [insight.id]
        ).then(rows => rows.map((row: any) => row.tag));
      }
      
      return insights;
    }
