Implementation Reference
- src/utils/execute-api-tool.ts:34-252 (handler)Generic execution handler for all API tools including 'evm_getblock'. Validates input using Zod from JSON schema, constructs HTTP request using tool definition (path, method, params, headers, auth), sends via axios to Moralis EVM API, and returns formatted response or error.
