Implementation Reference

  • src/cli.ts:95-159 (registration)
    MCP tool registration for 'update_progress', including Zod input schema and handler that delegates to client.updateProgress
    this.server.tool( 'update_progress', { task_id: z.string().describe('The ID of the task being updated'), progress: z .number() .min(0) .max(100) .describe('Progress percentage (0-100)'), status_update: z.string().describe('Brief status update message'), completed_steps: z .array(z.string()) .optional() .describe('List of completed steps'), current_step: z .string() .optional() .describe('Current step being worked on'), challenges: z .array(z.string()) .optional() .describe('Any challenges or blockers encountered'), files_modified: z .array(z.string()) .optional() .describe('List of files that were modified'), time_spent: z.number().optional().describe('Time spent in minutes'), notes: z.string().optional().describe('Additional notes'), }, async ({ task_id, progress, status_update, completed_steps, current_step, challenges, files_modified, time_spent, notes, }) => { if (!this.client) { throw new Error('Not connected to Buildable API'); } const result = await this.client.updateProgress(task_id, { progress, status_update, completed_steps, current_step, challenges, files_modified, time_spent, notes, }); return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2), }, ], }; } );
  • Core handler function that executes the progress update by making a POST request to the Buildable API endpoint /tasks/{taskId}/progress
    async updateProgress( taskId: string, progress: ProgressUpdate ): Promise<ProgressResponse> { this.log( 'debug', `Updating progress for task ${taskId}: ${progress.progress}%` ); try { const response = await this.makeRequest<ProgressResponse>( 'POST', `/tasks/${taskId}/progress`, { completion_percentage: progress.progress, files_created: progress.files_modified, files_modified: progress.files_modified, notes: progress.notes, blockers: progress.challenges, time_spent_minutes: progress.time_spent, current_step: progress.current_step, completed_steps: progress.completed_steps, } ); this.log('info', `Progress updated: ${progress.progress}% complete`); // Update connection activity await this.updateConnectionStatus('working', taskId); return response.data!; } catch (error) { this.log('error', `Failed to update progress for task ${taskId}:`, error); throw error; } }
  • Zod schema for input validation of the update_progress tool parameters
    task_id: z.string().describe('The ID of the task being updated'), progress: z .number() .min(0) .max(100) .describe('Progress percentage (0-100)'), status_update: z.string().describe('Brief status update message'), completed_steps: z .array(z.string()) .optional() .describe('List of completed steps'), current_step: z .string() .optional() .describe('Current step being worked on'), challenges: z .array(z.string()) .optional() .describe('Any challenges or blockers encountered'), files_modified: z .array(z.string()) .optional() .describe('List of files that were modified'), time_spent: z.number().optional().describe('Time spent in minutes'), notes: z.string().optional().describe('Additional notes'), },
  • TypeScript interface defining the ProgressUpdate structure used by the updateProgress method and MCP tool
    export interface ProgressUpdate { progress: number; // 0-100 status_update: string; completed_steps?: string[]; current_step?: string; challenges?: string[]; time_spent?: number; // minutes files_modified?: string[]; notes?: string; }
  • Payload mapping from ProgressUpdate to API request body for the progress update endpoint
    completion_percentage: progress.progress, files_created: progress.files_modified, files_modified: progress.files_modified, notes: progress.notes, blockers: progress.challenges, time_spent_minutes: progress.time_spent, current_step: progress.current_step, completed_steps: progress.completed_steps, }
