Implementation Reference
- mcp_mailchimp/server.py:549-555 (handler)The actual implementation of the archive_member tool. It takes list_id and email, hashes the email via mc.subscriber_hash(), sends a DELETE request to Mailchimp's members endpoint, and returns a confirmation message.

They can be re-added later via add_or_update_member.""" mc = get_client() h = mc.subscriber_hash(email) await mc.delete(f"/lists/{list_id}/members/{h}") return _fmt({"email": email, "message": "Member archived."}) - mcp_mailchimp/server.py:549-555 (registration)The tool is registered via the @mcp.tool() decorator on line 549, making it available as 'archive_member' in the MCP server.
