Implementation Reference

  • The core handler function that fetches TikTok post details from the TikNeuron API endpoint and formats the response into a readable string.
    async function performGetPostDetails(tiktok_url: string) {
        const url = new URL('https://tikneuron.com/api/mcp/post-detail');
        url.searchParams.set('tiktok_url', tiktok_url);
    
        const response = await fetch(url, {
            headers: {
                'Accept': 'application/json',
                'Accept-Encoding': 'gzip',
                'MCP-API-KEY': TIKNEURON_MCP_API_KEY,
            }
        });
    
        if (!response.ok) {
            throw new Error(`TikNeuron API error: ${response.status} ${response.statusText}\n${await response.text()}`);
        }
    
        const data = await response.json() as PostDetails;
    
        if (data.details) {
            const details = data.details;
            return `Description: ${details.description || 'N/A'}
        Video ID: ${details.video_id || 'N/A'}
        Creator: ${details.creator || 'N/A'}
        Hashtags: ${Array.isArray(details.hashtags) ? details.hashtags.join(', ') : 'N/A'}
        Likes: ${details.likes || '0'}
        Shares: ${details.shares || '0'}
        Comments: ${details.comments || '0'}
        Views: ${details.views || '0'}
        Bookmarks: ${details.bookmarks || '0'}
        Created at: ${details.created_at || 'N/A'}
        Duration: ${details.duration || 0} seconds
        Available subtitles: ${details.available_subtitles?.map(sub => `${sub.language || 'Unknown'} (${sub.source || 'Unknown source'})`).join(', ') || 'None'}`;
          } else {
            return 'No details available';
          }
    }
  • The switch case in the CallToolRequestSchema handler that validates input arguments and invokes the performGetPostDetails function.
    case "tiktok_get_post_details": {
        if (!isGetPostDetailsArgs(args)) {
            throw new Error("Invalid arguments for tiktok_get_post_details");
        }
        const { tiktok_url } = args;
    
        const results = await performGetPostDetails(tiktok_url);
        return {
            content: [{ type: "text", text: results }],
            isError: false,
        };
    }
  • Tool definition including name, description, and input schema for validation.
    const GET_POST_DETAILS: Tool = {
        name: "tiktok_get_post_details",
        description:
            "Get the details of a TikTok post." +

            properties: {
                tiktok_url: {
                    type: "string",
                    description: "TikTok video URL, e.g., https://www.tiktok.com/@username/video/1234567890 or https://vm.tiktok.com/1234567890, or just the video ID like 7409731702890827041",

            required: ["tiktok_url"],

    };
  • index.ts:318-320 (registration)
    Registration of the tool in the ListToolsRequestSchema handler, making it discoverable.
    server.setRequestHandler(ListToolsRequestSchema, async () => ({
        tools: [GET_SUBTITLE, GET_POST_DETAILS, SEARCH],
    }));
  • Type guard function to validate input arguments for the tiktok_get_post_details tool.
    function isGetPostDetailsArgs(args: unknown): args is { tiktok_url: string } {
        return (
            typeof args === "object" &&
            args !== null &&
            "tiktok_url" in args &&
            typeof (args as { tiktok_url: string }).tiktok_url === "string"
        );
    }
