Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:378-400 (handler)Core handler function in MemoryBoxClient that executes the bucket creation via API POST to /api/v2/buckets with bucket_name parameter.
async createBucket(bucketName: string): Promise<any> { try { const response = await axios.post( `${this.baseUrl}/api/v2/buckets`, {}, { params: { bucket_name: bucketName }, headers: { "Authorization": `Bearer ${this.token}` } } ); return response.data; } catch (error) { if (axios.isAxiosError(error)) { throw new McpError( ErrorCode.InternalError, `Failed to create bucket: ${error.response?.data?.detail || error.message}` ); } throw error; } } - src/index.ts:1168-1184 (handler)MCP CallToolRequest handler case that validates input, invokes the client.createBucket method, and returns formatted success response.
case "create_bucket": { const bucketName = String(request.params.arguments?.bucket_name || ""); if (!bucketName) { throw new McpError(ErrorCode.InvalidParams, "Bucket name is required"); } // Create the bucket const result = await memoryBoxClient.createBucket(bucketName); return { content: [{ type: "text", text: `Bucket "${bucketName}" created successfully!\n\n${result.message || "The bucket is now available for storing memories."}` }] }; } - src/index.ts:785-796 (schema)Tool schema definition including name, description, and inputSchema for validation (requires bucket_name string). This is returned by ListToolsRequest.
