Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
storyPublicIdYesThe public Id of the story

Input Schema (JSON Schema)

{ "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#", "additionalProperties": false, "properties": { "storyPublicId": { "description": "The public Id of the story", "exclusiveMinimum": 0, "type": "number" } }, "required": [ "storyPublicId" ], "type": "object" }

Implementation Reference

  • The handler function that fetches the story, gets the current user, and returns either the existing formatted VCS branch name or generates a new one using createBranchName.
    async getStoryBranchName(storyPublicId: number) { const currentUser = await this.client.getCurrentUser(); if (!currentUser) throw new Error("Unable to find current user"); const story = await this.client.getStory(storyPublicId); if (!story) throw new Error(`Failed to retrieve Shortcut story with public ID: ${storyPublicId}`); const branchName = (story as Story & { formatted_vcs_branch_name: string | null }).formatted_vcs_branch_name || this.createBranchName(currentUser, story); return this.toResult(`Branch name for story sc-${storyPublicId}: ${branchName}`); }
  • Registers the tool named 'stories-get-branch-name' with input schema and points to the getStoryBranchName handler.
    server.addToolWithReadAccess( "stories-get-branch-name", "Get a valid branch name for a specific story.", { storyPublicId: z.number().positive().describe("The public Id of the story"), }, async ({ storyPublicId }) => await tools.getStoryBranchName(storyPublicId), );
  • Input schema for the tool: requires storyPublicId as a positive number.
    { storyPublicId: z.number().positive().describe("The public Id of the story"), },
  • Private helper that generates a branch name in the format '{mention_name}/sc-{id}/{slugified-name}' truncated to 50 chars.
    private createBranchName(currentUser: MemberInfo, story: Story) { return `${currentUser.mention_name}/sc-${story.id}/${story.name .toLowerCase() .replace(/\s+/g, "-") .replace(/[^\w-]/g, "")}`.substring(0, 50); }
