Implementation Reference

  • MCP tool handler for 'add_todo': validates current goal exists, casts arguments to Todo shape, calls storage.addTodo, and returns the new todo as JSON text.
    case 'add_todo': {
      if (!this.currentGoal) {
        throw new McpError(
          ErrorCode.InvalidRequest,
          'No active goal. Start a new planning session first.'
        );
      }
    
      const todo = request.params.arguments as Omit<
        Todo,
        'id' | 'isComplete' | 'createdAt' | 'updatedAt'
      >;
      const newTodo = await storage.addTodo(this.currentGoal.id, todo);
    
      return {
        content: [
          {
            type: 'text',
            text: JSON.stringify(newTodo, null, 2),
          },
        ],
      };
    }
  • Tool registration in ListTools response, including input schema definition for 'add_todo' matching Todo properties.
    {
      name: 'add_todo',
      description: 'Add a new todo item to the current plan',
      inputSchema: {
        type: 'object',
        properties: {
          title: {
            type: 'string',
            description: 'Title of the todo item',
          },
          description: {
            type: 'string',
            description: 'Detailed description of the todo item',
          },
          complexity: {
            type: 'number',
            description: 'Complexity score (0-10)',
            minimum: 0,
            maximum: 10,
          },
          codeExample: {
            type: 'string',
            description: 'Optional code example',
          },
        },
        required: ['title', 'description', 'complexity'],
      },
    },
  • TypeScript interface Todo defining the structure used for add_todo inputs and storage.
    export interface Todo {
      id: string;
      title: string;
      description: string;
      complexity: number;
      codeExample?: string;
      isComplete: boolean;
      createdAt: string;
      updatedAt: string;
    }
  • Storage helper function that implements the core logic: creates Todo with generated id/timestamps, appends to plan.todos, persists to JSON file.
    async addTodo(
      goalId: string,
      { title, description, complexity, codeExample }: Omit<Todo, 'id' | 'isComplete' | 'createdAt' | 'updatedAt'>
    ): Promise<Todo> {
      const plan = await this.getPlan(goalId);
      if (!plan) {
        throw new Error(`No plan found for goal ${goalId}`);
      }
    
      const todo: Todo = {
        id: Date.now().toString(),
        title,
        description,
        complexity,
        codeExample,
        isComplete: false,
        createdAt: new Date().toISOString(),
        updatedAt: new Date().toISOString(),
      };
    
      plan.todos.push(todo);
      plan.updatedAt = new Date().toISOString();
      await this.save();
      return todo;
    }
