Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:337-382 (handler)The main handler function for the 'get_recent_changes' tool. It extracts arguments, constructs a MediaWiki API request for recentchanges, fetches data using makeApiRequest, processes the changes into a formatted structure with details like title, timestamp, user, sizes, etc., and returns it as JSON text content.
private async getRecentChanges(args: any) { const { limit = 10, namespace } = args; const params: Record<string, string> = { action: 'query', list: 'recentchanges', rcprop: 'title|timestamp|user|comment|sizes|flags', rclimit: Math.min(limit, 50).toString(), }; if (namespace !== undefined) { params.rcnamespace = namespace.toString(); } const data = await this.makeApiRequest(params); if (data.error) { throw new McpError(ErrorCode.InternalError, data.error.info); } const changes = data.query?.recentchanges || []; return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify({ recentChanges: changes.map((change: any) => ({ title: change.title, timestamp: change.timestamp, user: change.user, comment: change.comment, oldSize: change.oldlen, newSize: change.newlen, sizeChange: change.newlen - change.oldlen, type: change.type, isNew: change.new === '', isMinor: change.minor === '', isBot: change.bot === '', url: `${WIKI_BASE_URL}/${change.title.replace(/ /g, '_')}`, })), }, null, 2), }, ], }; } - src/index.ts:117-130 (schema)The input schema for the 'get_recent_changes' tool, specifying an object with optional 'limit' (number, default 10, max 50) and 'namespace' (number for filtering). No required properties.
