Implementation Reference

  • The core handler function that executes the tool logic by fetching the issue details from the GitHub REST API.
    export async function getIssue(owner: string, repo: string, issue_number: number) { return githubRequest(`https://api.github.com/repos/${owner}/${repo}/issues/${issue_number}`); }
  • Zod schema defining the input parameters for the get_issue tool: owner, repo, and issue_number.
    export const GetIssueSchema = z.object({ owner: z.string(), repo: z.string(), issue_number: z.number(), });
  • index.ts:151-154 (registration)
    Registration of the 'get_issue' tool in the MCP server's list of tools, including name, description, and input schema.
    name: "get_issue", description: "Get details of a specific issue in a GitHub repository.", inputSchema: zodToJsonSchema(issues.GetIssueSchema) },
  • The MCP CallToolRequest handler case that parses arguments, calls getIssue, and formats the response.
    case "get_issue": { const args = issues.GetIssueSchema.parse(request.params.arguments); const issue = await issues.getIssue(args.owner, args.repo, args.issue_number); return { content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(issue, null, 2) }], }; }
