Implementation Reference

  • The primary handler function that performs semantic analysis on a file's git history by retrieving changes, analyzing patterns, generating a summary, writing JSON output to the specified path, and returning a success message.
    private async handleFileSemantics(args: FileSemanticArgs) { const changes = this.getSemanticChanges(args.repoPath, args.file); const patterns = this.analyzeChangePatterns(changes); const analysis = { changes, patterns, summary: this.generateSemanticSummary(changes, patterns), }; writeFileSync(args.outputPath, JSON.stringify(analysis, null, 2)); return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: `File semantic analysis written to ${args.outputPath}`, }, ], }; }
  • src/index.ts:224-245 (registration)
    Tool registration in the listTools response, including name, description, and input schema definition.
    { name: 'analyze_file_semantics', description: 'Analyze semantic changes and patterns in file history', inputSchema: { type: 'object', properties: { repoPath: { type: 'string', description: 'Path to git repository', }, file: { type: 'string', description: 'File to analyze', }, outputPath: { type: 'string', description: 'Path to write analysis output', }, }, required: ['repoPath', 'file', 'outputPath'], }, },
  • TypeScript interface defining the input parameters for the analyze_file_semantics tool.
    interface FileSemanticArgs { repoPath: string; file: string; outputPath: string; }
  • Type guard function used to validate incoming arguments conform to FileSemanticArgs before calling the handler.
    private isFileSemanticArgs(args: unknown): args is FileSemanticArgs { return ( typeof args === 'object' && args !== null && 'repoPath' in args && 'file' in args && 'outputPath' in args && typeof (args as FileSemanticArgs).repoPath === 'string' && typeof (args as FileSemanticArgs).file === 'string' && typeof (args as FileSemanticArgs).outputPath === 'string' ); }
  • Helper function that executes git log with patches to retrieve file history data for semantic change analysis.
    private getSemanticChanges(repoPath: string, file: string) { const output = execSync( `cd "${repoPath}" && git log --patch --format="%H|%aI|%s" -- "${file}"`, { encoding: 'utf8' } ); // Implement semantic change analysis return []; }
