Implementation Reference
- src/apis/github/github.ts:106-114 (handler)The main handler function for the 'create_issue' tool. It validates the input arguments (owner, repo, title, optional body), checks for GitHub token configuration, and delegates to the GitHubClient's createIssue method to POST a new issue.
async create_issue(args: Record<string, unknown>) { if (!cfg.githubToken) throw new Error("GITHUB_TOKEN is not configured"); const owner = String(args.owner || ""); const repo = String(args.repo || ""); const title = String(args.title || ""); const body = args.body ? String(args.body) : undefined; if (!owner || !repo || !title) throw new Error("owner, repo and title are required"); return client.createIssue(owner, repo, title, body); }, - src/apis/github/github.ts:67-76 (schema)The input schema definition for the 'create_issue' tool, specifying properties for owner, repo, title (required), and optional body as strings.
