- src/tools/api/requests.ts:117-151 (handler)PatchRequestTool class implementing the execute method for playwright_patch tool, performing HTTP PATCH request using Playwright's API context.export class PatchRequestTool extends ApiToolBase { /** * Execute the PATCH request tool */ async execute(args: any, context: ToolContext): Promise<ToolResponse> { return this.safeExecute(context, async (apiContext) => { // Check if the value is valid JSON if it starts with { or [ if (args.value && typeof args.value === 'string' && (args.value.startsWith('{') || args.value.startsWith('['))) { try { JSON.parse(args.value); } catch (error) { return createErrorResponse(`Failed to parse request body: ${(error as Error).message}`); } } const response = await apiContext.patch(args.url, { data: args.value }); let responseText; try { responseText = await response.text(); } catch (error) { responseText = "Unable to get response text"; } return createSuccessResponse([ `PATCH request to ${args.url}`, `Status: ${response.status()} ${response.statusText()}`, `Response: ${responseText.substring(0, 1000)}${responseText.length > 1000 ? '...' : ''}` ]); }); } }

- src/toolHandler.ts:338-340 (registration)Instantiation of PatchRequestTool instance during tool initialization.if (!putRequestTool) putRequestTool = new PutRequestTool(server); if (!patchRequestTool) patchRequestTool = new PatchRequestTool(server); if (!deleteRequestTool) deleteRequestTool = new DeleteRequestTool(server);
