Implementation Reference

  • Generic MCP tool call handler that executes API tools like 'API-getBridgingTransactions' by resolving the name to an OpenAPI operation and calling the associated HttpClient.
    server.setRequestHandler(CallToolRequestSchema, async (request) => {
    	// console.error("call tool", request.params);
    	const { name, arguments: params } = request.params;
    
    	console.error("name", name);
    
    	if (name === "API-get-input-schema") {
    		for (const mcpToolWithClient of mcpToolWithClients) {
    			for (const [toolName, def] of Object.entries(
    				mcpToolWithClient.mcpTools.tools,
    			)) {
    				for (const method of def.methods) {
    					const toolNameWithMethod = `${toolName}-${method.name}`;
    					const truncatedToolName = toolNameWithMethod.slice(0, 64);
    					if (truncatedToolName === params.toolName) {
    						return {
    							content: [
    								{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(method.inputSchema) },
    							],
    						};
    					}
    				}
    			}
    		}
    		throw new Error(`Method ${params.toolName} not found`);
    	}
    
    	// find operation
    	const mcpToolWithClient = mcpToolWithClients.find(
    		(t) => t.mcpTools.openApiLookup[name],
    	);
    	if (!mcpToolWithClient) {
    		throw new Error(`Method ${name} not found`);
    	}
    
    	const operation = mcpToolWithClient.mcpTools.openApiLookup[name];
    
    	// execute
    	try {
    		const response = await mcpToolWithClient.client.executeOperation(
    			operation,
    			params,
    		);
    		return {
    			content: [
    				{
    					type: "text", // currently this is the only type that seems to be used by mcp server
    					text: JSON.stringify(response.data), // TODO: pass through the http status code text?
    				},
    			],
    		};
    	} catch (error) {
    		console.error("Error in tool call", error);
    		if (error instanceof HttpClientError) {
    			console.error(
    				"HttpClientError encountered, returning structured error",
    				error,
    			);
    			const data = error.data?.response?.data ?? error.data ?? {};
    			return {
    				content: [
    					{
    						type: "text",
    						text: JSON.stringify({
    							status: "error", // TODO: get this from http status code?
    							...(typeof data === "object" ? data : { data: data }),
    						}),
    					},
    				],
    			};
    		}
    		throw error;
    	}
    });
  • index.js:100-147 (registration)
    Dynamically registers all API tools, including 'API-getBridgingTransactions', by iterating over OpenAPI-derived MCP tools and constructing tool names as 'toolName-methodName'.
    server.setRequestHandler(ListToolsRequestSchema, async () => {
    	console.error("list tools");
    	/**
    	 * @typedef {import("@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/types.js").Tool} Tool
    	 * @type {Tool[]}
    	 */
    	const tools = [];
    
    	for (const mcpToolWithClient of mcpToolWithClients) {
    		for (const [toolName, def] of Object.entries(
    			mcpToolWithClient.mcpTools.tools,
    		)) {
    			for (const method of def.methods) {
    				console.error("method", method);
    				const toolNameWithMethod = `${toolName}-${method.name}`;
    				const truncatedToolName = toolNameWithMethod.slice(0, 64);
    				const trimmedDescription = method.description.split("Error")[0].trim();
    				tools.push({
    					name: truncatedToolName,
    					description: trimmedDescription,
    					inputSchema: {
    						type: "object",
    						properties: {},
    					},
    				});
    			}
    		}
    	}
    
    	tools.unshift({
    		name: "API-get-input-schema",
    		description:
    			"Get the input schema for a given API. We should always use this tool to get the input schema for a given API before calling the API.",
    		inputSchema: {
    			type: "object",
    			properties: {
    				toolName: {
    					type: "string",
    					description: "The name of the tool to get the input schema for",
    				},
    			},
    		},
    	});
    
    	console.error("tools", tools);
    
    	return { tools };
    });
  • Handler for retrieving the input schema of any registered API tool, such as 'API-getBridgingTransactions', from the OpenAPI method schema.
    if (name === "API-get-input-schema") {
    	for (const mcpToolWithClient of mcpToolWithClients) {
    		for (const [toolName, def] of Object.entries(
    			mcpToolWithClient.mcpTools.tools,
    		)) {
    			for (const method of def.methods) {
    				const toolNameWithMethod = `${toolName}-${method.name}`;
    				const truncatedToolName = toolNameWithMethod.slice(0, 64);
    				if (truncatedToolName === params.toolName) {
    					return {
    						content: [
    							{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(method.inputSchema) },
    						],
    					};
    				}
    			}
    		}
    	}
    	throw new Error(`Method ${params.toolName} not found`);
    }
  • Converts OpenAPI specifications to MCP tools, generating the definitions (including schemas and operations) used for tools like 'API-getBridgingTransactions'.
    const mcpToolWithClients = converterWithClients.map((cwc) => {
    	const mcpTools = cwc.converter.convertToMCPTools();
    	return {
    		mcpTools,
    		client: cwc.client,
    	};
    });
  • Creates OpenAPIToMCPConverter instances and associates them with HttpClients for executing API operations.
    const converterWithClients = openApiSpecs.map((o) => {
    	const converter = new OpenAPIToMCPConverter(o.spec);
    	return {
    		converter,
    		client: o.client,
    	};
    });
Behavior2/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only states the action ('retrieve') without detailing traits like whether it's read-only, requires authentication, has rate limits, returns paginated results, or what format the output takes. This is a significant gap for a tool with no annotation coverage.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single, efficient phrase ('Retrieve bridging transactions') that is front-loaded and wastes no words. It directly conveys the core purpose without unnecessary elaboration, making it highly concise and well-structured for its simplicity.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness2/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the tool's complexity (implied by retrieving transactions, which could involve filtering or pagination), lack of annotations, and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It does not address behavioral aspects like return format, error handling, or scope, leaving gaps that hinder the agent's ability to use the tool effectively.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

The tool has 0 parameters with 100% schema description coverage, so no parameter information is needed in the description. The description does not add or contradict parameter semantics, which is acceptable given the lack of parameters, aligning with the baseline score for zero parameters.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose3/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description 'Retrieve bridging transactions' clearly states the verb ('retrieve') and resource ('bridging transactions'), providing a basic understanding of the tool's function. However, it lacks specificity about scope (e.g., all transactions, filtered, or recent) and does not differentiate from sibling tools like 'API-getBridgingTransactionByHash' or 'API-getStakingTransactions', making it vague in comparison.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. It does not mention any context, prerequisites, or exclusions, such as how it differs from 'API-getBridgingTransactionByHash' (which retrieves by hash) or other transaction-related tools in the sibling list, leaving the agent without usage direction.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
