Implementation Reference

  • The handler function within the CallToolRequest switch statement that executes the zulip_subscribe_to_channel tool. It validates the input arguments and calls the ZulipClient's subscribeToStream method to perform the subscription.
    case "zulip_subscribe_to_channel": { const args = request.params.arguments as unknown as SubscribeToChannelArgs; if (!args.channel_name) { throw new Error("Missing required argument: channel_name"); } const response = await zulipClient.subscribeToStream(args.channel_name); return { content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(response) }], }; }
  • JSON Schema defining the input parameters for the zulip_subscribe_to_channel tool, specifying channel_name as a required string.
    inputSchema: { type: "object", properties: { channel_name: { type: "string", description: "The name of the stream to subscribe to", }, }, required: ["channel_name"], },
  • index.ts:200-213 (registration)
    The Tool object registration that defines the name, description, and input schema for zulip_subscribe_to_channel, used in ListToolsRequest response.
    const subscribeToChannelTool: Tool = { name: "zulip_subscribe_to_channel", description: "Subscribe the bot to a channel (stream)", inputSchema: { type: "object", properties: { channel_name: { type: "string", description: "The name of the stream to subscribe to", }, }, required: ["channel_name"], }, };
  • Helper method in ZulipClient class that performs the actual Zulip API call to subscribe to the specified stream/channel.
    async subscribeToStream(streamName: string) { try { const subscriptions = [{ name: streamName }]; return await this.client.streams.subscribe({ subscriptions: JSON.stringify(subscriptions) }); } catch (error) { console.error("Error subscribing to stream:", error); throw error; } }
  • TypeScript interface used for type-checking the tool's input arguments in the handler.
    interface SubscribeToChannelArgs { channel_name: string; }
