Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:209-219 (handler)Handler function for the 'create-pod' tool that sends a POST request to the RunPod /pods endpoint with the input parameters and returns the JSON response as formatted text.async (params) => { const result = await runpodRequest('/pods', 'POST', params); return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2), }, ], };
- src/index.ts:181-208 (schema)Zod schema defining the input parameters for the 'create-pod' tool, including optional fields like name, imageName, gpu specs, volumes, ports, env vars, etc.{ name: z.string().optional().describe('Name for the pod'), imageName: z.string().describe('Docker image to use'), cloudType: z .enum(['SECURE', 'COMMUNITY']) .optional() .describe('SECURE or COMMUNITY cloud'), gpuTypeIds: z .array(z.string()) .optional() .describe('List of acceptable GPU types'), gpuCount: z.number().optional().describe('Number of GPUs'), containerDiskInGb: z .number() .optional() .describe('Container disk size in GB'), volumeInGb: z.number().optional().describe('Volume size in GB'), volumeMountPath: z.string().optional().describe('Path to mount the volume'), ports: z .array(z.string()) .optional() .describe("Ports to expose (e.g., '8888/http', '22/tcp')"), env: z.record(z.string()).optional().describe('Environment variables'), dataCenterIds: z .array(z.string()) .optional() .describe('List of data centers'), },
- src/index.ts:179-221 (registration)Registration of the 'create-pod' tool on the MCP server using server.tool(), specifying the name, input schema, and handler function.server.tool( 'create-pod', { name: z.string().optional().describe('Name for the pod'), imageName: z.string().describe('Docker image to use'), cloudType: z .enum(['SECURE', 'COMMUNITY']) .optional() .describe('SECURE or COMMUNITY cloud'), gpuTypeIds: z .array(z.string()) .optional() .describe('List of acceptable GPU types'), gpuCount: z.number().optional().describe('Number of GPUs'), containerDiskInGb: z .number() .optional() .describe('Container disk size in GB'), volumeInGb: z.number().optional().describe('Volume size in GB'), volumeMountPath: z.string().optional().describe('Path to mount the volume'), ports: z .array(z.string()) .optional() .describe("Ports to expose (e.g., '8888/http', '22/tcp')"), env: z.record(z.string()).optional().describe('Environment variables'), dataCenterIds: z .array(z.string()) .optional() .describe('List of data centers'), }, async (params) => { const result = await runpodRequest('/pods', 'POST', params); return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2), }, ], }; } );
- src/index.ts:27-66 (helper)Reusable helper function that makes authenticated HTTP requests to the RunPod API. Used by the create-pod handler and all other tools.async function runpodRequest( endpoint: string, method: string = 'GET', body?: Record<string, unknown> ) { const url = `${API_BASE_URL}${endpoint}`; const headers = { Authorization: `Bearer ${API_KEY}`, 'Content-Type': 'application/json', }; const options: NodeFetchRequestInit = { method, headers, }; if (body && (method === 'POST' || method === 'PATCH')) { options.body = JSON.stringify(body); } try { const response = await fetch(url, options); if (!response.ok) { const errorText = await response.text(); throw new Error(`RunPod API Error: ${response.status} - ${errorText}`); } // Some endpoints might not return JSON const contentType = response.headers.get('content-type'); if (contentType && contentType.includes('application/json')) { return await response.json(); } return { success: true, status: response.status }; } catch (error) { console.error('Error calling RunPod API:', error); throw error; } }
