Implementation Reference

  • Registration of the 'browser_focus_element' tool, including the inline handler function that executes the tool logic by delegating to ActionService.
    server.tool('browser_focus_element', 'Focus on a specific element', { ...locatorSchema }, async ({ by, value }) => { try { const driver = stateManager.getDriver(); const actionService = new ActionService(driver); await actionService.focusElement({ by, value }); return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: `Focused on element` }], }; } catch (e) { return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: `Error focusing on element: ${(e as Error).message}`, }, ], }; } });
  • The handler function for the tool, which handles input, calls the service, and returns response.
    server.tool('browser_focus_element', 'Focus on a specific element', { ...locatorSchema }, async ({ by, value }) => { try { const driver = stateManager.getDriver(); const actionService = new ActionService(driver); await actionService.focusElement({ by, value }); return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: `Focused on element` }], }; } catch (e) { return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: `Error focusing on element: ${(e as Error).message}`, }, ], }; } });
  • Zod schema for locator parameters used in the tool input validation.
    export const locatorSchema = { by: z .enum(['id', 'css', 'xpath', 'name', 'tag', 'class', 'link', 'partialLink']) .describe('Locator strategy to find element'), value: z.string().describe('Value for the locator strategy'), timeout: z.number().optional().describe('Maximum time to wait for element in milliseconds'), };
  • Core implementation of focusing an element using Selenium WebDriver executeScript.
    async focusElement(params: LocatorParams): Promise<void> { const locator = LocatorFactory.createLocator(params.by, params.value); const element = await this.driver.wait(until.elementLocated(locator), params.timeout || 15000); await this.driver.executeScript('arguments[0].focus();', element); }
