Implementation Reference
- src/server.ts:47-58 (handler)Handler logic for the 'bing-search-to-markdown' tool. It is grouped with other URL-based tools (YouTube, webpage). Validates the URL input and calls Markdownify.toMarkdown to perform the conversion.case tools.YouTubeToMarkdownTool.name: case tools.BingSearchResultToMarkdownTool.name: case tools.WebpageToMarkdownTool.name: if (!validatedArgs.url) { throw new Error("URL is required for this tool"); } result = await Markdownify.toMarkdown({ url: validatedArgs.url, projectRoot: validatedArgs.projectRoot, uvPath: validatedArgs.uvPath || process.env.UV_PATH, }); break;
- src/tools.ts:34-47 (schema)Defines the ToolSchema for 'bing-search-to-markdown', including name, description, and input schema requiring a 'url' parameter for the Bing search results page.export const BingSearchResultToMarkdownTool = ToolSchema.parse({ name: "bing-search-to-markdown", description: "Convert a Bing search results page to markdown", inputSchema: { type: "object", properties: { url: { type: "string", description: "URL of the Bing search results page", }, }, required: ["url"], }, });
- src/server.ts:31-35 (registration)Registers all tools from the tools module (including bing-search-to-markdown) in the MCP server's listTools request handler.server.setRequestHandler(ListToolsRequestSchema, async () => { return { tools: Object.values(tools), }; });
- src/Markdownify.ts:51-92 (helper)Core helper function that handles URL inputs by fetching HTML content, saving to a temporary file, converting it to markdown using the markitdown tool, and returning the markdown text and output path.static async toMarkdown({ filePath, url, projectRoot = path.resolve(__dirname, ".."), uvPath = "~/.local/bin/uv", }: { filePath?: string; url?: string; projectRoot?: string; uvPath?: string; }): Promise<MarkdownResult> { try { let inputPath: string; let isTemporary = false; if (url) { const response = await fetch(url); const content = await response.text(); inputPath = await this.saveToTempFile(content); isTemporary = true; } else if (filePath) { inputPath = filePath; } else { throw new Error("Either filePath or url must be provided"); } const text = await this._markitdown(inputPath, projectRoot, uvPath); const outputPath = await this.saveToTempFile(text); if (isTemporary) { fs.unlinkSync(inputPath); } return { path: outputPath, text }; } catch (e: unknown) { if (e instanceof Error) { throw new Error(`Error processing to Markdown: ${e.message}`); } else { throw new Error("Error processing to Markdown: Unknown error occurred"); } } }
