Implementation Reference

• src/utils/execute-api-tool.ts:34-252 (handler)

  Generic execution handler for all prefixed API tools including 'evm_getnftcontracttransfers'. Validates inputs using Zod schema derived from OpenAPI, constructs HTTP request to Moralis API using tool definition (path, method, params), applies auth, executes via axios, and formats response or error.
  export async function executeApiTool( toolName: string, definition: McpToolDefinition, toolArgs: JsonObject, allSecuritySchemes: Record<string, any>, token?: string, ): Promise<CallToolResult> { try { // Validate arguments against the input schema let validatedArgs: JsonObject; try { const zodSchema = getZodSchemaFromJsonSchema( definition.inputSchema, toolName, ); const argsToParse = typeof toolArgs === 'object' && toolArgs !== null ? toolArgs : {}; validatedArgs = zodSchema.parse(argsToParse); } catch (error: unknown) { if (error instanceof ZodError) { const validationErrorMessage = `Invalid arguments for tool '${toolName}': ${error.errors.map((e) => `${e.path.join('.')} (${e.code}): ${e.message}`).join(', ')}`; return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: validationErrorMessage }] }; } else { const errorMessage = error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error); return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: `Internal error during validation setup: ${errorMessage}`, }, ], };

• src/parser/extract-tools.ts:101-180 (schema)

  Generates the inputSchema (JSON Schema for Zod conversion) for each tool from OpenAPI operation parameters (path/query/header) and requestBody, used for 'evm_getnftcontracttransfers' schema.

• src/server.ts:26-44 (registration)

  Loads EVM OpenAPI spec, extracts tool definitions with 'evm_' prefix (creating 'evm_getnftcontracttransfers'), filters blacklist, builds map used for MCP tool listing and calling.
  async function mapToolDefinitions(config: SchemaConfig) { const spec = (await getSpec(config.specUrl)) as OpenAPIV3DocumentX; const api = (await SwaggerParser.dereference(spec)) as OpenAPIV3DocumentX; const tools = extractToolsFromApi(api, config.prefix); const blacklist = Array.isArray(api['x-mcp-blacklist']) ? api['x-mcp-blacklist'].map((e) => `${config.prefix}${e.toLowerCase()}`) : []; const toolDefinitionMap: Record<string, McpToolDefinition> = {}; for (const tool of tools) { if (blacklist.includes(tool.name)) continue; toolDefinitionMap[tool.name] = { ...tool, baseUrl: config.baseUrl, }; } return toolDefinitionMap; }
• src/parser/extract-tools.ts:17-93 (registration)

  Core function that parses OpenAPI paths/operations into MCP tools, sets name to prefix + operationId/sanitized (e.g. 'evm_getnftcontracttransfers'), extracts schema/params/security.

• src/config.ts:15-22 (helper)

  EVM configuration defining the 'evm_' prefix for tool names and URLs for Moralis API base and OpenAPI spec used to dynamically generate tools like 'evm_getnftcontracttransfers'.
