Implementation Reference
- src/tools.py:497-515 (handler)The main MCP tool handler for 'delete_contact_group'. It is registered via @mcp.tool() decorator and handles the tool execution by calling the underlying service method.
@mcp.tool() async def delete_contact_group(resource_name: str) -> str: """Delete a contact group. Note: This only works for user-created groups, not system groups. Args: resource_name: Contact group resource name (e.g., "contactGroups/12345") """ service = init_service() if not service: return "Error: Google Contacts service is not available. Please check your credentials." try: result = service.delete_contact_group(resource_name) if result.get("success"): return f"Contact group {resource_name} deleted successfully." else: return f"Failed to delete contact group: {result.get('message', 'Unknown error')}" except Exception as e: return f"Error: Failed to delete contact group - {str(e)}" - The helper service method in GoogleContactsService that performs the actual Google Contacts API deletion call using self.service.contactGroups().delete().
