Implementation Reference

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

  The generic handler function `executeApiTool` that implements the core logic for all API-based tools, including `evm_gettimeseriesvolumebycategory`. It validates input, constructs HTTP request to Moralis API using tool definition (path, method, params, security), executes with axios, and formats response.
  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: ${errorMessage}`, }, ], }; } } // Prepare URL, query parameters, headers, and request body let urlPath = definition.pathTemplate; const queryParams: Record<string, any> = {}; const headers: Record<string, string> = { Accept: 'application/json', 'X-Moralis-Platform': 'MCP', }; let requestBodyData: any = undefined; // Apply parameters to the URL path, query, or headers definition.executionParameters.forEach((param) => { const value = validatedArgs[param.name]; if (typeof value !== 'undefined' && value !== null) { if (param.in === 'path') { urlPath = urlPath.replace( `{${param.name}}`, encodeURIComponent(String(value)), ); } else if (param.in === 'query') { queryParams[param.name] = value; } else if (param.in === 'header') { headers[param.name.toLowerCase()] = String(value); } } }); // Ensure all path parameters are resolved if (urlPath.includes('{')) { throw new Error(`Failed to resolve path parameters: ${urlPath}`); } // Construct the full URL const requestUrl = `${definition.baseUrl}${urlPath}`; // Handle request body if needed if ( definition.requestBodyContentType && typeof validatedArgs['requestBody'] !== 'undefined' ) { requestBodyData = validatedArgs['requestBody']; headers['content-type'] = definition.requestBodyContentType; } // Apply security requirements if available // Security requirements use OR between array items and AND within each object const appliedSecurity = definition.securityRequirements?.find((req) => { // Try each security requirement (combined with OR) return Object.entries(req).every(([schemeName, scopesArray]) => { const scheme = allSecuritySchemes[schemeName]; if (!scheme) return false; // API Key security (header, query, cookie) if (scheme.type === 'apiKey') { return !!token || !!Config.MORALIS_API_KEY; } return false; }); }); // If we found matching security scheme(s), apply them if (appliedSecurity) { // Apply each security scheme from this requirement (combined with AND) for (const [schemeName, scopesArray] of Object.entries(appliedSecurity)) { const scheme = allSecuritySchemes[schemeName]; // API Key security if (scheme?.type === 'apiKey') { const apiKey = token || Config.MORALIS_API_KEY; if (apiKey) { if (scheme.in === 'header') { headers[scheme.name.toLowerCase()] = apiKey; console.error( `Applied API key '${schemeName}' in header '${scheme.name}'`, ); } } } } } // Log warning if security is required but not available else if (definition.securityRequirements?.length > 0) { // First generate a more readable representation of the security requirements const securityRequirementsString = definition.securityRequirements .map((req) => { const parts = Object.entries(req) .map(([name, scopesArray]) => { const scopes = scopesArray as string[]; if (scopes.length === 0) return name; return `${name} (scopes: ${scopes.join(', ')})`; }) .join(' AND '); return `[${parts}]`; }) .join(' OR '); console.warn( `Tool '${toolName}' requires security: ${securityRequirementsString}, but no suitable credentials found.`, ); } // Prepare the axios request configuration const config: AxiosRequestConfig = { method: definition.method.toUpperCase(), url: requestUrl, params: queryParams, headers: headers, ...(requestBodyData !== undefined && { data: requestBodyData }), }; // Log request info to stderr (doesn't affect MCP output) console.error( `Executing tool "${toolName}": ${config.method} ${config.url}`, ); // Execute the request const response = await axios(config); // Process and format the response let responseText = ''; const contentType = response.headers['content-type']?.toLowerCase() || ''; // Handle JSON responses if ( contentType.includes('application/json') && typeof response.data === 'object' && response.data !== null ) { try { responseText = JSON.stringify(response.data, null, 2); } catch (e) { responseText = '[Stringify Error]'; } } // Handle string responses else if (typeof response.data === 'string') { responseText = response.data; } // Handle other response types else if (response.data !== undefined && response.data !== null) { responseText = String(response.data); } // Handle empty responses else { responseText = `(Status: ${response.status} - No body content)`; } // Return formatted response return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: `API Response (Status: ${response.status}):\n${responseText}`, }, ], }; } catch (error: unknown) { // Handle errors during execution let errorMessage: string; // Format Axios errors specially if (axios.isAxiosError(error)) { errorMessage = formatApiError(error); } // Handle standard errors else if (error instanceof Error) { errorMessage = error.message; } // Handle unexpected error types else { errorMessage = `Unexpected error: ${String(error)}`; } // Log error to stderr console.error( `Error during execution of tool '${toolName}':`, errorMessage, );

• src/server.ts:96-120 (registration)

  MCP server registration of the CallTool handler, which looks up the tool definition by name (e.g., 'evm_gettimeseriesvolumebycategory') and delegates to the generic executeApiTool handler.
  server.setRequestHandler( CallToolRequestSchema, async (request: CallToolRequest, c): Promise<CallToolResult> => { const { name: toolName, arguments: toolArgs } = request.params; const toolDefinition = toolDefinitionMap[toolName]; if (!toolDefinition) { console.error(`Error: Unknown tool requested: ${toolName}`); return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: `Error: Unknown tool requested: ${toolName}`, }, ], }; } return executeApiTool( toolName, toolDefinition, toolArgs ?? {}, securitySchemes, c.authInfo?.token, ); }, );
• src/server.ts:85-94 (registration)

  MCP server registration of ListTools handler, which provides the dynamically generated schema and description for all tools including `evm_gettimeseriesvolumebycategory`.
  server.setRequestHandler(ListToolsRequestSchema, async () => { const toolsForClient: Tool[] = Object.values(toolDefinitionMap).map( (def) => ({ name: def.name, description: def.description, inputSchema: def.inputSchema, }), ); return { tools: toolsForClient }; });
• src/server.ts:26-44 (helper)

  Loads OpenAPI spec for EVM/Solana, extracts tool definitions with prefix (e.g., 'evm_'), applies blacklist, stores in toolDefinitionMap used for registration and execution. This is where `evm_gettimeseriesvolumebycategory` gets registered dynamically.
  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/config.ts:14-22 (helper)

  Configuration for EVM tools, defining the 'evm_' prefix matching the tool name, base API URL, and OpenAPI spec URL from which the tool schemas and definitions are extracted.
  const configs: Record<string, SchemaConfig> = { evm: { prefix: 'evm_', baseUrl: process.env.API_BASE_URL || 'https://deep-index.moralis.io/api/v2.2', specUrl: process.env.API_SPEC_URL || 'https://deep-index.moralis.io/api-docs-2.2/v2.2/swagger.json', },
