Implementation Reference

• src/tools/WeatherTool.ts:34-105 (handler)

  Core execution logic for the 'weather-get_hourly' tool: validates inputs, queries AccuWeather API for location and hourly forecast, formats output, handles errors.

  export async function handler(
    args: { [x: string]: any },
    extra: RequestHandlerExtra<any, any>
  ): Promise<{ content: TextContent[] }> {
    // Validate args using the Zod schema
    let validatedArgs: z.infer<typeof inputSchema>;

        const errorMessages = error.errors
          .map((e) => `${e.path.join('.')}: ${e.message}`)
          .join(', ');
        return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: `Invalid input: ${errorMessages}` }] };
      }
      return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: 'An unexpected error occurred during input validation.' }] };
    }
  
    const { location, units = "metric" } = validatedArgs;
    const apiKey = process.env.ACCUWEATHER_API_KEY;
    if (!apiKey) {
      return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: 'Error: AccuWeather API key not configured' }] };
    }
  
    try {
      // Step 1: Get location key
      const locationUrl = `https://dataservice.accuweather.com/locations/v1/cities/search?apikey=${apiKey}&q=${encodeURIComponent(location)}`;
      const locationResp = await axios.get(locationUrl);
  
      if (!locationResp.data || locationResp.data.length === 0) {
        return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: `No location found for: ${location}` }] };
      }
  
      const locationKey = locationResp.data[0].Key;
  
      // Step 2: Get forecast with location key
      const forecastUrl = `https://dataservice.accuweather.com/forecasts/v1/hourly/12hour/${locationKey}?apikey=${apiKey}&metric=${units === "metric" ? "true" : "false"}`;
      const forecastResp = await axios.get(forecastUrl);
      const data = forecastResp.data;
  
      if (!data || !Array.isArray(data) || data.length === 0) {
        return {
          content: [{ type: 'text', text: `No weather data available for location: ${location}` }]
        };
      }
  
      const unitSymbol = units === "metric" ? "C" : "F";
      const content: TextContent[] = data.map((hour: any) => ({
        type: 'text',
        text: `${hour.DateTime}: ${hour.Temperature.Value}°${unitSymbol}, ${hour.IconPhrase}`,
      }));
  
      return { content };
    } catch (error) {
      console.error("WeatherTool handler error:", error);
      let errorMessage = "An error occurred while fetching weather data.";
  
      if (axios.isAxiosError(error)) {
        if (error.response?.status === 401) {
          errorMessage = "Invalid AccuWeather API key. Please check your credentials.";
        } else if (error.response?.status === 404) {
          errorMessage = `Location not found: ${location}`;
        } else if (error.response) {
          errorMessage = `AccuWeather API error (${error.response.status}): ${error.response.data?.Message || error.message}`;

    }
  }

• src/index.ts:10-28 (registration)

  Defines the Tool metadata for 'weather-get_hourly', including name, description, and input schema.

  const hourlyWeatherTool: Tool = {
    name: "weather-get_hourly",
    description: "Get hourly weather forecast for the next 12 hours",
    inputSchema: {
      type: "object",
      properties: {
        location: {
          type: "string",
          description: "The city or location for which to retrieve the weather forecast."
        },
        units: {
          type: "string",
          description: "Temperature unit system (metric for Celsius, imperial for Fahrenheit). Default is metric.",
          enum: ["metric", "imperial"]
        }
      },
      required: ["location"]
    }
  };

• src/index.ts:69-71 (registration)

  Registers the available tools, including 'weather-get_hourly', in response to ListTools requests.

  server.setRequestHandler(ListToolsRequestSchema, async () => ({
    tools: [hourlyWeatherTool, dailyWeatherTool],
  }));

• src/index.ts:83-85 (registration)

  Dispatches CallTool requests to the appropriate handler based on tool name 'weather-get_hourly'.

  if (request.params.name === "weather-get_hourly") {
    return await hourlyHandler(args, {} as RequestHandlerExtra<any, any>);
  } else if (request.params.name === "weather-get_daily") {

• src/tools/WeatherTool.ts:7-13 (schema)

  Zod schema for input validation used within the handler.

  export const inputShape = {
    location: z.string().min(1, "Location must be at least 1 character"),
    units: z.enum(["imperial", "metric"]).default("metric").optional().describe("Temperature unit system")
  };
  
  export const inputSchema = z.object(inputShape).describe("Get hourly weather forecast");
