| name | Yes | Name for the cloned playbook |
Implementation Reference
- src/spix_mcp/registry.py:180-194 (schema)Schema definition for the playbook.clone command. It's path is 'playbook.clone', which gets converted to the MCP tool name 'spix_playbook_clone'. It's exposed as a safe tool, uses POST to /playbooks/{playbook_id}/clone, and requires playbook_id (positional) and name (param).
CommandSchema( path="playbook.clone", cli_usage="spix playbook clone <playbook_id> --name <n>", http_method="POST", api_endpoint="/playbooks/{playbook_id}/clone", mcp_expose="tool", mcp_profile="safe", description="Clone an existing playbook", positional_args=[ CommandParam("playbook_id", "string", required=True, description="Playbook ID to clone"), ], params=[ CommandParam("name", "string", required=True, description="Name for the cloned playbook"), ], ), - src/spix_mcp/tools.py:94-203 (handler)The generic tool handler that dispatches all MCP tool calls (including spix_playbook_clone) to the backend API. It resolves the tool name via get_schema_by_tool_name, validates access, builds the endpoint URL with path parameters, and sends the HTTP request using the method from the schema (POST for clone).
