String(args.category) : undefined; const country = args.country ? String(args.country) : undefined; return client.sources(category, country); }, - src/apis/news/newsapi.ts:64-74 (registration)The registration of the 'get_sources' tool within the registerNewsApi() function's tools array, including its name, description, and input schema.
