Implementation Reference
- src/server.ts:339-356 (handler)The primary MCP tool handler function that executes the generateDecimalFractions tool call by delegating to the RandomOrgClient and formatting the response as MCP-standard content.
private async handleGenerateDecimalFractions(args: any) { const result = await this.randomOrgClient.generateDecimalFractions(args); return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify({ data: result.random.data, completionTime: result.random.completionTime, bitsUsed: result.bitsUsed, bitsLeft: result.bitsLeft, requestsLeft: result.requestsLeft, advisoryDelay: result.advisoryDelay, }, null, 2), }, ], }; } - src/server.ts:122-148 (registration)Tool registration in the ListTools response, defining the tool's name, description, and input schema for validation.

async generateDecimalFractions(params: DecimalParams): Promise<DecimalResult> { this.validateDecimalParams(params); return this.makeRequest<DecimalResult>('generateDecimalFractions', params); } - src/randomOrgClient.ts:159-166 (helper)Parameter validation helper specifically for decimal fractions inputs.
private validateDecimalParams(params: DecimalParams): void { if (params.n < 1 || params.n > 10000) { throw new Error('n must be between 1 and 10,000'); } if (params.decimalPlaces < 1 || params.decimalPlaces > 20) { throw new Error('decimalPlaces must be between 1 and 20'); } }
