Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:505-516 (handler)MCP tool handler for 'send_thought' that extracts parameters from the request and delegates execution to ContemplationManager.sendThought, returning the generated thought ID.
case 'send_thought': { const { thought_type, content, priority } = args as { thought_type: string; content: string; priority?: number; }; const thoughtId = await contemplation.sendThought(thought_type, content, priority); return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: `Thought sent for processing. ID: ${thoughtId}` }], }; } - src/index.ts:387-406 (schema)Input schema definition for the 'send_thought' tool, specifying parameters, types, enums, and requirements for validation.
inputSchema: { type: 'object', properties: { thought_type: { type: 'string', enum: ['pattern', 'connection', 'question', 'general'], description: 'Type of thought to process' }, content: { type: 'string', description: 'The thought content to process' }, priority: { type: 'number', description: 'Priority 1-10 (default 5)', minimum: 1, maximum: 10 } }, required: ['thought_type', 'content'], - src/index.ts:384-407 (registration)Registration of the 'send_thought' tool in the ListTools response, including name, description, and full input schema.
