Implementation Reference

• index.ts:267-274 (handler)

  MCP tool handler for 'create_issue': parses arguments using CreateIssueSchema, extracts owner/repo/options, calls issues.createIssue, and returns JSON-formatted response.

  case "create_issue": {
    const args = issues.CreateIssueSchema.parse(request.params.arguments);
    const { owner, repo, ...options } = args;
    const issue = await issues.createIssue(owner, repo, options);
    return {
      content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(issue, null, 2) }],
    };
  }

• index.ts:98-102 (registration)

  Registration of the 'create_issue' tool in the ListTools response, including name, description, and input schema reference.

  {
    name: "create_issue",
    description: "Create a new issue in a GitHub repository",
    inputSchema: zodToJsonSchema(issues.CreateIssueSchema),
  },

• operations/issues.ts:25-29 (schema)

  Input schema for create_issue tool: combines owner, repo, and CreateIssueOptionsSchema.

  export const CreateIssueSchema = z.object({
    owner: z.string(),
    repo: z.string(),
    ...CreateIssueOptionsSchema.shape,
  });

• operations/issues.ts:71-83 (helper)

  Core implementation: makes POST request to GitHub Issues API with provided options.

  export async function createIssue(
    owner: string,
    repo: string,
    options: z.infer<typeof CreateIssueOptionsSchema>
  ) {
    return githubRequest(
      `https://api.github.com/repos/${owner}/${repo}/issues`,
      {
        method: "POST",
        body: options,
      }
    );
  }

• operations/issues.ts:17-23 (schema)

  Supporting schema for issue creation options: title, body, assignees, milestone, labels.

  export const CreateIssueOptionsSchema = z.object({
    title: z.string(),
    body: z.string().optional(),
    assignees: z.array(z.string()).optional(),
    milestone: z.number().optional(),
    labels: z.array(z.string()).optional(),
  });
