Implementation Reference

  • Handler implementation for todoist_get_label tool: validates arguments with isLabelIdArgs, calls todoistClient.getLabel(labelId), formats response with formatLabel, and handles errors.
    if (name === "todoist_get_label") {
      if (!isLabelIdArgs(args)) {
        return { content: [{ type: "text", text: "Invalid arguments for get_label" }], isError: true };
      }
      try {
        const label = await todoistClient.getLabel(args.labelId);
        return { 
          content: [{ type: "text", text: `Label details:\n${formatLabel(label)}` }], 
          isError: false 
        };
      } catch (error: any) {
        return { content: [{ type: "text", text: `Error getting label: ${error.message}` }], isError: true };
      }
    }
  • Tool schema definition for todoist_get_label, specifying input as object with required labelId string.
    const GET_LABEL_TOOL: Tool = {
      name: "todoist_get_label",
      description: "Get a specific label by its ID.",
      inputSchema: {
        type: "object",
        properties: {
          labelId: { type: "string", description: "The ID of the label to retrieve." }
        },
        required: ["labelId"]
      }
    };
  • src/index.ts:1083-1121 (registration)
    Registration of todoist_get_label (as GET_LABEL_TOOL) in the listTools response handler, included in the tools array.
    server.setRequestHandler(ListToolsRequestSchema, async () => ({
      tools: [
        // Task tools
        CREATE_TASK_TOOL,
        QUICK_ADD_TASK_TOOL,
        GET_TASKS_TOOL,
        GET_TASK_TOOL,
        UPDATE_TASK_TOOL,
        DELETE_TASK_TOOL,
        COMPLETE_TASK_TOOL,
        REOPEN_TASK_TOOL,
        SEARCH_TASKS_TOOL,
        MOVE_TASK_TOOL,
        BULK_MOVE_TASKS_TOOL,
        // Project tools
        GET_PROJECTS_TOOL,
        GET_PROJECT_TOOL,
        CREATE_PROJECT_TOOL,
        UPDATE_PROJECT_TOOL,
        DELETE_PROJECT_TOOL,
        // Section tools
        GET_SECTIONS_TOOL,
        CREATE_SECTION_TOOL,
        UPDATE_SECTION_TOOL,
        DELETE_SECTION_TOOL,
        // Label tools
        CREATE_LABEL_TOOL,
        GET_LABEL_TOOL,
        GET_LABELS_TOOL,
        UPDATE_LABEL_TOOL,
        DELETE_LABEL_TOOL,
        // Comment tools
        CREATE_COMMENT_TOOL,
        GET_COMMENT_TOOL,
        GET_COMMENTS_TOOL,
        UPDATE_COMMENT_TOOL,
        DELETE_COMMENT_TOOL,
      ],
    }));
  • Type guard helper function isLabelIdArgs used to validate input arguments for the todoist_get_label handler.
    function isLabelIdArgs(args: unknown): args is {
      labelId: string;
    } {
      return (
        typeof args === "object" &&
        args !== null &&
        "labelId" in args &&
        typeof (args as { labelId: string }).labelId === "string"
      );
    }
  • Helper function formatLabel used to format the label details in the response.
    function formatLabel(label: any): string {
      return `- ${label.name} (ID: ${label.id})${label.color ? `\n  Color: ${label.color}` : ''}${label.isFavorite ? `\n  Favorite: Yes` : ''}${label.order ? `\n  Order: ${label.order}`: ''}`;
    }
