Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:485-489 (handler)Handler for the create_directory tool. Resolves the workspace path, then creates the directory (and all parent directories) using mkdir with recursive: true.
case "create_directory": { const dirPath = resolveWorkspacePath(a.path as string, a.workspace_root as string | undefined); await mkdir(dirPath, { recursive: true }); return { content: [{ type: "text", text: `Created: ${dirPath}` }] }; } - src/index.ts:221-232 (schema)Schema definition for create_directory tool: requires a 'path' string, optional 'workspace_root' string, and describes the tool as creating a directory with all parent directories.
