Convert Temperature
bbq_convert_temperatureRead-onlyIdempotent
Convert temperature between Fahrenheit and Celsius for BBQ cooking. Use this tool to translate temperature units for recipes, grill settings, or meat doneness guidelines.
Instructions
Convert temperature between Fahrenheit and Celsius.
Args:
temperature: Temperature value to convert
from_unit: Source unit ('fahrenheit' or 'celsius')
to_unit: Target unit ('fahrenheit' or 'celsius')
Examples:
"What is 225°F in Celsius?" -> temperature=225, from_unit='fahrenheit', to_unit='celsius'
"Convert 100°C to Fahrenheit" -> temperature=100, from_unit='celsius', to_unit='fahrenheit'

Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:933-963 (handler)Main handler function for bbq_convert_temperature tool. Takes input params, calls convertTemperature helper, formats output with symbols, returns structured response or error.
async (params: ConvertTemperatureInput) => { try { const result = convertTemperature(params.temperature, params.from_unit, params.to_unit); const fromSymbol = params.from_unit === "fahrenheit" ? "°F" : "°C"; const toSymbol = params.to_unit === "fahrenheit" ? "°F" : "°C"; const output = { original: { value: params.temperature, unit: params.from_unit, }, converted: { value: result, unit: params.to_unit, }, display: `${params.temperature}${fromSymbol} = ${result}${toSymbol}`, }; return { content: [{ type: "text", text: output.display }], structuredContent: output, }; } catch (error) { const message = error instanceof Error ? error.message : "Unknown error occurred"; return { isError: true, content: [{ type: "text", text: `Error converting temperature: ${message}` }], }; } } - src/index.ts:911-932 (registration)Registration of the bbq_convert_temperature tool with server.registerTool, including title, detailed description, input schema, and annotations.
