Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:1171-1180 (registration)Registers the 'list_send_as' MCP tool. The inline schema accepts no parameters. The handler uses the shared 'handleTool' helper to authenticate and call the Gmail API's users.settings.sendAs.list method to retrieve the list of send-as aliases, then formats the response.server.tool("list_send_as", "Lists the send-as aliases for the specified account", {}, async () => { return handleTool(config, async (gmail: gmail_v1.Gmail) => { const { data } = await gmail.users.settings.sendAs.list({ userId: 'me' }) return formatResponse(data) }) } )
- src/index.ts:1174-1179 (handler)The handler function for 'list_send_as' tool execution, which delegates to handleTool for auth and API call to list send-as aliases.async () => { return handleTool(config, async (gmail: gmail_v1.Gmail) => { const { data } = await gmail.users.settings.sendAs.list({ userId: 'me' }) return formatResponse(data) }) }
- src/index.ts:50-80 (helper)Shared helper function 'handleTool' that manages OAuth2 authentication, creates Gmail client, executes the provided API callback, handles errors (especially auth), and formats responses. Used by 'list_send_as' and all other Gmail tools.const handleTool = async (queryConfig: Record<string, any> | undefined, apiCall: (gmail: gmail_v1.Gmail) => Promise<any>) => { try { const oauth2Client = queryConfig ? createOAuth2Client(queryConfig) : defaultOAuth2Client if (!oauth2Client) throw new Error('OAuth2 client could not be created, please check your credentials') const credentialsAreValid = await validateCredentials(oauth2Client) if (!credentialsAreValid) throw new Error('OAuth2 credentials are invalid, please re-authenticate') const gmailClient = queryConfig ? google.gmail({ version: 'v1', auth: oauth2Client }) : defaultGmailClient if (!gmailClient) throw new Error('Gmail client could not be created, please check your credentials') const result = await apiCall(gmailClient) return result } catch (error: any) { // Check for specific authentication errors if ( error.message?.includes("invalid_grant") || error.message?.includes("refresh_token") || error.message?.includes("invalid_client") || error.message?.includes("unauthorized_client") || error.code === 401 || error.code === 403 ) { return formatResponse({ error: `Authentication failed: ${error.message}. Please re-authenticate by running: npx @shinzolabs/gmail-mcp auth`, }); } return formatResponse({ error: `Tool execution failed: ${error.message}` }); } }
- src/index.ts:48-48 (helper)Helper function to format tool responses as MCP content blocks with JSON stringified data.const formatResponse = (response: any) => ({ content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(response) }] })
