Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:1233-1245 (registration)Registration of the delete_smime_info tool, including input schema validation using Zod and the inline handler function that uses the shared handleTool to perform the Gmail API deletion of S/MIME info for a send-as alias.server.tool("delete_smime_info", "Deletes the specified S/MIME config for the specified send-as alias", { sendAsEmail: z.string().describe("The email address that appears in the 'From:' header"), id: z.string().describe("The immutable ID for the S/MIME config") }, async (params) => { return handleTool(config, async (gmail: gmail_v1.Gmail) => { const { data } = await gmail.users.settings.sendAs.smimeInfo.delete({ userId: 'me', sendAsEmail: params.sendAsEmail, id: params.id }) return formatResponse(data) }) } )
- src/index.ts:1239-1244 (handler)The handler function for delete_smime_info tool that authenticates via handleTool, calls the Gmail API to delete the specified S/MIME configuration, and formats the response.async (params) => { return handleTool(config, async (gmail: gmail_v1.Gmail) => { const { data } = await gmail.users.settings.sendAs.smimeInfo.delete({ userId: 'me', sendAsEmail: params.sendAsEmail, id: params.id }) return formatResponse(data) }) }
- src/index.ts:1235-1238 (schema)Zod schema for input parameters: sendAsEmail (string) and id (string) for identifying the S/MIME config to delete.{ sendAsEmail: z.string().describe("The email address that appears in the 'From:' header"), id: z.string().describe("The immutable ID for the S/MIME config") },
- src/index.ts:50-80 (helper)Shared handleTool helper function used by delete_smime_info (and all other tools) to handle OAuth2 authentication, Gmail client creation, API call execution, error handling for auth issues, and response formatting.const handleTool = async (queryConfig: Record<string, any> | undefined, apiCall: (gmail: gmail_v1.Gmail) => Promise<any>) => { try { const oauth2Client = queryConfig ? createOAuth2Client(queryConfig) : defaultOAuth2Client if (!oauth2Client) throw new Error('OAuth2 client could not be created, please check your credentials') const credentialsAreValid = await validateCredentials(oauth2Client) if (!credentialsAreValid) throw new Error('OAuth2 credentials are invalid, please re-authenticate') const gmailClient = queryConfig ? google.gmail({ version: 'v1', auth: oauth2Client }) : defaultGmailClient if (!gmailClient) throw new Error('Gmail client could not be created, please check your credentials') const result = await apiCall(gmailClient) return result } catch (error: any) { // Check for specific authentication errors if ( error.message?.includes("invalid_grant") || error.message?.includes("refresh_token") || error.message?.includes("invalid_client") || error.message?.includes("unauthorized_client") || error.code === 401 || error.code === 403 ) { return formatResponse({ error: `Authentication failed: ${error.message}. Please re-authenticate by running: npx @shinzolabs/gmail-mcp auth`, }); } return formatResponse({ error: `Tool execution failed: ${error.message}` }); } }
