Implementation Reference
- src/tools/search.ts:270-297 (handler)The handler function 'searchRegulations' that processes the 'search_regulations' tool requests, delegating to either 'searchSqlite' or 'searchPostgres' based on the database type.
export async function searchRegulations( db: DatabaseAdapter, input: SearchInput ): Promise<SearchResult[]> { let { query, regulations, limit = 10 } = input; if (!Number.isFinite(limit) || limit < 0) { limit = 10; } limit = Math.min(Math.floor(limit), 1000); if (!query || query.trim().length === 0) { return []; } try { if (db.type === 'sqlite') { return await searchSqlite(db, query, regulations, limit); } else { return await searchPostgres(db, query, regulations, limit); } } catch (error) { if (error instanceof Error && (error.message.includes('tsquery') || error.message.includes('MATCH'))) { return []; } throw error; } } - src/tools/search.ts:3-7 (schema)Input interface for the 'search_regulations' tool.
export interface SearchInput { query: string; regulations?: string[]; limit?: number; } - src/tools/registry.ts:70-93 (registration)Registration of the 'search_regulations' tool in the tool registry. Note: The snippet shows the registration structure in src/tools/registry.ts.
