Implementation Reference
- src/tools/contacts.ts:220-231 (handler)The main handler function for the 'update_custom_field' tool. It checks read-only mode and performs a PUT request to the SendGrid API to update the custom field's name.handler: async ({ field_id, name }: { field_id: string; name: string }): Promise<ToolResult> => { const readOnlyCheck = checkReadOnlyMode(); if (readOnlyCheck.blocked) { return { content: [{ type: "text", text: readOnlyCheck.message! }] }; } const result = await makeRequest(`https://api.sendgrid.com/v3/marketing/field_definitions/${field_id}`, { method: "PUT", body: JSON.stringify({ name }), }); return { content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2) }] }; },
- src/tools/contacts.ts:212-219 (schema)The configuration object including title, description, and Zod input schema for validating the tool's parameters.config: { title: "Update Custom Field", description: "Update an existing custom field definition", inputSchema: { field_id: z.string().describe("ID of the custom field to update"), name: z.string().describe("New name for the custom field"), }, },
- src/tools/contacts.ts:211-232 (registration)The tool definition object within contactTools, which registers the 'update_custom_field' tool for export and use.update_custom_field: { config: { title: "Update Custom Field", description: "Update an existing custom field definition", inputSchema: { field_id: z.string().describe("ID of the custom field to update"), name: z.string().describe("New name for the custom field"), }, }, handler: async ({ field_id, name }: { field_id: string; name: string }): Promise<ToolResult> => { const readOnlyCheck = checkReadOnlyMode(); if (readOnlyCheck.blocked) { return { content: [{ type: "text", text: readOnlyCheck.message! }] }; } const result = await makeRequest(`https://api.sendgrid.com/v3/marketing/field_definitions/${field_id}`, { method: "PUT", body: JSON.stringify({ name }), }); return { content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2) }] }; }, },
- src/tools/index.ts:3-12 (registration)Imports contactTools (containing update_custom_field) and spreads it into the allTools object, effectively registering it globally.import { contactTools } from "./contacts.js"; import { mailTools } from "./mail.js"; import { miscTools } from "./misc.js"; import { statsTools } from "./stats.js"; import { templateTools } from "./templates.js"; export const allTools = { ...automationTools, ...campaignTools, ...contactTools,
