Implementation Reference

  • src/server.ts:175-187 (registration)
    Registration of the 'broadcast-event' MCP tool, including inline input schema (roomId: string, event: record) and handler function that calls Liveblocks API to broadcast the event to the specified room.
    server.tool( "broadcast-event", "Broadcast an event to a Liveblocks room", { roomId: z.string(), event: z.record(z.string(), z.any()), }, async ({ roomId, event }, extra) => { return await callLiveblocksApi( getLiveblocks().broadcastEvent(roomId, event, { signal: extra.signal }) ); } );
  • Handler function for 'broadcast-event' tool: destructures roomId and event from input, calls getLiveblocks().broadcastEvent with the parameters and extra.signal for abort handling.
    async ({ roomId, event }, extra) => { return await callLiveblocksApi( getLiveblocks().broadcastEvent(roomId, event, { signal: extra.signal }) ); }
  • Input schema for 'broadcast-event' tool: requires roomId (string) and event (arbitrary record).
    { roomId: z.string(), event: z.record(z.string(), z.any()), },
  • Helper function getLiveblocks() that lazily initializes and returns the Liveblocks client instance used in the handler.
    function getLiveblocks() { if (!client) { client = new Liveblocks({ secret: process.env.LIVEBLOCKS_SECRET_KEY as string, }); } return client; }
