Implementation Reference

src/index.ts:636-653 (handler)

The main handler function for the 'get_chat_messages' tool. It validates the bot_id parameter, makes an API request to retrieve chat messages, formats the response using formatChatMessages helper, and returns it as MCP content.

private async getChatMessages(args: Record<string, unknown>) {
  const bot_id = args.bot_id as string;
  
  if (!bot_id || typeof bot_id !== 'string') {
    throw new Error("Missing or invalid required parameter: bot_id");
  }
  
  const data = await this.makeApiRequest(`/api/v1/bots/${bot_id}/chat_messages`);

  return {
    content: [
      {
        type: "text",
        text: this.formatChatMessages(data, bot_id),
      },
    ],
  };
}

src/index.ts:185-200 (helper)

Helper function that formats the raw chat messages data into a human-readable string with timestamps and sender names.

private formatChatMessages(data: any, botId: string): string {
  if (!Array.isArray(data) || data.length === 0) {
    return `💬 No chat messages found for bot ${botId}`;
  }

  let chatOutput = `💬 Chat Messages for bot ${botId}:\n\n`;
  chatOutput += "─".repeat(50) + "\n";
  
  data.forEach((message: any) => {
    const timestamp = new Date(message.created_at).toLocaleTimeString();
    chatOutput += `[${timestamp}] ${message.sender_name}:\n${message.message}\n\n`;
  });
  
  chatOutput += "─".repeat(50) + `\n📊 Total messages: ${data.length}`;
  return chatOutput;
}
