Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:352-369 (handler)MCP tool handler implementation for 'get_funding_rounds'. Validates input arguments, constructs GetFundingRoundsInput parameters, calls CrunchbaseAPI.getFundingRounds, and returns the result as JSON text content.
case 'get_funding_rounds': { if (!args || typeof args !== 'object' || !('company_name_or_id' in args) || typeof args.company_name_or_id !== 'string') { throw new McpError(ErrorCode.InvalidParams, 'Missing or invalid company_name_or_id parameter'); } const params: GetFundingRoundsInput = { company_name_or_id: args.company_name_or_id, limit: typeof args.limit === 'number' ? args.limit : undefined }; const fundingRounds = await this.crunchbaseApi.getFundingRounds(params); return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify(fundingRounds, null, 2), }, ], }; } - src/index.ts:243-260 (registration)Tool registration in the ListToolsRequestSchema handler, defining the name, description, and inputSchema for 'get_funding_rounds'.
