Implementation Reference

• src/tools/categories.ts:41-62 (handler)

  The tool handler implementation for "create_category" which accepts a name parameter, calls the DB helper, and formats the result.

  server.tool(
    "create_category",
    "Create a new game category",
    {
      name: z.string().describe("Category name"),
    },
    async (params) => {
      try {
        const category = createCategory(params.name);
        return {
          content: [
            {
              type: "text",
              text: JSON.stringify({ message: "Category created", category }, null, 2),
            },
          ],
        };
      } catch (error) {
        return handleError(error);
      }
    }
  );

• src/db/queries.ts:154-160 (helper)

  The database query function that actually inserts the new category into the SQLite database.

  export function createCategory(name: string): Category {
    const db = getDatabase();
    const result = db
      .prepare("INSERT INTO categories (name) VALUES (?)")
      .run(name);
    return { id: result.lastInsertRowid as number, name };
  }
