Implementation Reference

  • The handler function that implements the core logic for 'fs_get_file_info', using fs.stat and fs.realpath to fetch file stats and returning formatted JSON response.
    export async function getFileInfo(args: z.infer<typeof getFileInfoSchema>): Promise<ToolResponse> {
      try {
        const stats = await fs.stat(args.path);
        const realPath = await fs.realpath(args.path);
    
        return {
          content: [
            {
              type: "text" as const,
              text: JSON.stringify({
                success: true,
                path: args.path,
                realPath: realPath,
                type: stats.isDirectory() ? 'directory' : stats.isSymbolicLink() ? 'symlink' : 'file',
                size: stats.size,
                created: stats.birthtime,
                modified: stats.mtime,
                accessed: stats.atime,
                permissions: stats.mode.toString(8),
                uid: stats.uid,
                gid: stats.gid
              }, null, 2)
            }
          ]
        };
      } catch (error) {
        return {
          content: [
            {
              type: "text" as const,
              text: JSON.stringify({
                success: false,
                error: error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error)
              }, null, 2)
            }
          ],
          isError: true
        };
      }
    }
  • Zod input validation schema used for parsing arguments before calling the handler.
    export const getFileInfoSchema = z.object({
      path: z.string().describe('Absolute or relative path to the file or directory')
    });
  • src/index.ts:333-336 (registration)
    Registration and dispatch in the main MCP CallToolRequest handler, matching tool name and invoking the validated handler.
    if (name === 'fs_get_file_info') {
      const validated = getFileInfoSchema.parse(args);
      return await getFileInfo(validated);
    }
  • MCP tool metadata definition including JSON inputSchema, used for tool listing and discovery.
    {
      name: 'fs_get_file_info',
      description: 'Get detailed information about a file or directory (size, permissions, timestamps, etc.)',
      inputSchema: {
        type: 'object',
        properties: {
          path: {
            type: 'string',
            description: 'Absolute or relative path to the file or directory'
          }
        },
        required: ['path']
      }
    },
