- src/tools/order-tools.js:20-32 (handler)The handler function that implements the core logic of the 'list_orders' tool by fetching orders via ShipStation API client and formatting the response.handler: async (params) => { try { const orders = await shipStationClient.getOrders(params); return { content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(orders, null, 2) }] }; } catch (error) { return { content: [{ type: "text", text: error.message }], isError: true }; } }
- src/tools/order-tools.js:8-19 (schema)Zod-based input schema defining optional parameters for pagination, sorting, and filtering orders.schema: { page: z.number().optional().describe("Page number"), pageSize: z.number().optional().describe("Number of orders per page (max 500)"), sortBy: z.string().optional().describe("Sort orders by a specific field"), sortDir: z.enum(["ASC", "DESC"]).optional().describe("Sort direction"), orderStatus: z.string().optional().describe("Filter by order status"), storeId: z.number().optional().describe("Filter by store ID"), createDateStart: z.string().optional().describe("Filter by creation date (start)"), createDateEnd: z.string().optional().describe("Filter by creation date (end)"), modifyDateStart: z.string().optional().describe("Filter by modification date (start)"), modifyDateEnd: z.string().optional().describe("Filter by modification date (end)") },
