Implementation Reference
- src/service/hex.ts:65-75 (handler)The handler function for the 'hex_decode' tool. It receives the hex string in 'content', decodes it using HexUtil.hexToString, and returns the result as text content.
async ({ content }: { content: string }) => { const result = HexUtil.hexToString(content); return { content: [ { type: "text", text: result, }, ], }; } - src/service/hex.ts:62-64 (schema)The input schema for the 'hex_decode' tool, defining 'content' as a string (the hex to decode). Uses Zod for validation.
{ content: z.string().describe("hex to decode"), }, - src/service/hex.ts:59-76 (registration)The registration of the 'hex_decode' tool on the MCP server, specifying name, description, input schema, and handler function.
server.tool( "hex_decode", "decode hex to text", { content: z.string().describe("hex to decode"), }, async ({ content }: { content: string }) => { const result = HexUtil.hexToString(content); return { content: [ { type: "text", text: result, }, ], }; } ); - src/service/hex.ts:24-30 (helper)The HexUtil.hexToString helper method that implements the core logic of decoding a hexadecimal string into the original text by parsing pairs of hex digits into character codes.
static hexToString(hex: string): string { let str = ''; for (let i = 0; i < hex.length; i += 2) { str += String.fromCharCode(parseInt(hex.substr(i, 2), 16)); } return str; }
