Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:1129-1146 (handler)The handler function that executes the tool logic: fetches detailed bioassay information from PubChem API using the provided AID and returns formatted JSON response.private async handleGetAssayInfo(args: any) { try { const response = await this.apiClient.get(`/assay/aid/${args.aid}/JSON`); return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify(response.data, null, 2), }, ], }; } catch (error) { throw new McpError( ErrorCode.InternalError, `Failed to get assay info: ${error instanceof Error ? error.message : 'Unknown error'}` ); } }
- src/index.ts:592-598 (schema)Input schema validating the required 'aid' parameter as a number representing the PubChem Assay ID.inputSchema: { type: 'object', properties: { aid: { type: 'number', description: 'PubChem Assay ID (AID)' }, }, required: ['aid'], },
- src/index.ts:590-599 (registration)Tool registration in the MCP server's tools list, defining name, description, and input schema.name: 'get_assay_info', description: 'Get detailed information for a specific bioassay by AID', inputSchema: { type: 'object', properties: { aid: { type: 'number', description: 'PubChem Assay ID (AID)' }, }, required: ['aid'], }, },
- src/index.ts:782-783 (registration)Dispatch registration in the switch statement of the CallToolRequestHandler, routing 'get_assay_info' calls to the handler method.case 'get_assay_info': return await this.handleGetAssayInfo(args);
