server.tool("get_profile", "Get the current user's Gmail profile", {}, async () => { return handleTool(config, async (gmail: gmail_v1.Gmail) => { const { data } = await gmail.users.getProfile({ userId: 'me' }) return formatResponse(data) }) } ) - src/index.ts:1273-1278 (handler)Inline handler function for 'get_profile' tool. It uses the shared 'handleTool' helper to create an authenticated Gmail client and call gmail.users.getProfile({ userId: 'me' }) to retrieve the current user's profile.
async () => { return handleTool(config, async (gmail: gmail_v1.Gmail) => { const { data } = await gmail.users.getProfile({ userId: 'me' }) return formatResponse(data) }) } - src/index.ts:1272-1272 (schema)Input schema for 'get_profile' tool: empty object {}, indicating no parameters required.
{}, - src/index.ts:49-65 (helper)Shared helper function 'handleTool' used by 'get_profile' and other tools to handle OAuth2 authentication, validate credentials, create Gmail client, and execute the API call.
const handleTool = async (queryConfig: Record<string, any> | undefined, apiCall: (gmail: gmail_v1.Gmail) => Promise<any>) => { try { const oauth2Client = queryConfig ? createOAuth2Client(queryConfig) : defaultOAuth2Client if (!oauth2Client) throw new Error('OAuth2 client could not be created, please check your credentials') const credentialsAreValid = await validateCredentials(oauth2Client) if (!credentialsAreValid) throw new Error('OAuth2 credentials are invalid, please re-authenticate') const gmailClient = queryConfig ? google.gmail({ version: 'v1', auth: oauth2Client }) : defaultGmailClient if (!gmailClient) throw new Error('Gmail client could not be created, please check your credentials') const result = await apiCall(gmailClient) return result } catch (error: any) { return `Tool execution failed: ${error.message}` } } - src/index.ts:47-47 (helper)Shared helper 'formatResponse' used to format API responses as MCP content blocks.
const formatResponse = (response: any) => ({ content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(response) }] })
