Implementation Reference

  • Executes the tool by mapping the action parameter to specific Moom keyboard shortcuts and running the corresponding AppleScript via System Events.
    async triggerMoomAction(action) { // Map actions to Moom keyboard shortcuts const shortcuts = { 'grow': { key: '=', modifiers: 'control down, option down' }, 'shrink': { key: '-', modifiers: 'control down, option down' }, 'move-left': { key: '123', modifiers: 'control down, option down' }, // left arrow 'move-right': { key: '124', modifiers: 'control down, option down' }, // right arrow 'move-up': { key: '126', modifiers: 'control down, option down' }, // up arrow 'move-down': { key: '125', modifiers: 'control down, option down' }, // down arrow 'center': { key: 'c', modifiers: 'control down, option down' }, 'fill-screen': { key: 'return', modifiers: 'control down, option down' }, }; const shortcut = shortcuts[action]; if (!shortcut) { return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: `Unknown action: ${action}`, }, ], }; } const script = ` tell application "System Events" ${shortcut.key.length > 1 ? `key code ${shortcut.key} using {${shortcut.modifiers}}` : `keystroke "${shortcut.key}" using {${shortcut.modifiers}}`} end tell `; try { await this.runAppleScript(script); return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: `Successfully triggered Moom action: ${action}`, }, ], }; } catch (error) { return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: `Error: ${error.message}`, }, ], }; } }
  • Defines the input schema for the trigger_moom_action tool, specifying the 'action' parameter as a string enum.
    inputSchema: { type: 'object', properties: { action: { type: 'string', enum: ['grow', 'shrink', 'move-left', 'move-right', 'move-up', 'move-down', 'center', 'fill-screen'], description: 'Moom action to trigger', }, }, required: ['action'], },
  • src/index.js:60-73 (registration)
    Registers the trigger_moom_action tool in the ListTools response, including name, description, and input schema.
    name: 'trigger_moom_action', description: 'Trigger common Moom actions via keyboard shortcuts', inputSchema: { type: 'object', properties: { action: { type: 'string', enum: ['grow', 'shrink', 'move-left', 'move-right', 'move-up', 'move-down', 'center', 'fill-screen'], description: 'Moom action to trigger', }, }, required: ['action'], }, },
  • src/index.js:213-214 (registration)
    Dispatches calls to the trigger_moom_action tool by invoking the handler method in the main CallToolRequest handler.
    case 'trigger_moom_action': return await this.triggerMoomAction(args.action);
