Implementation Reference
- src/bybit-service.ts:145-157 (handler)Core handler function that executes the get_kline tool logic by making authenticated API request to Bybit's /v5/market/kline endpoint.async getKline( category: string, symbol: string, interval: string, start?: number, end?: number, limit: number = 200 ): Promise<BybitResponse<KlineData> | { error: string }> { const params: any = { category, symbol, interval, limit }; if (start) params.start = start; if (end) params.end = end; return this.makeBybitRequest('/v5/market/kline', 'GET', params); }

- src/index.ts:738-755 (handler)MCP CallToolRequest handler case that invokes the BybitService.getKline method and formats the response.case 'get_kline': { const result = await this.bybitService.getKline( typedArgs.category, typedArgs.symbol, typedArgs.interval, typedArgs.start, typedArgs.end, typedArgs.limit ); return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2), }, ], }; }
- src/types.ts:38-42 (schema)TypeScript interface defining the structure of Kline data returned by the Bybit API.export interface KlineData { symbol: string; category: string; list: [string, string, string, string, string, string, string][]; }
