Implementation Reference

  • MCP tool handler for 'up_get_category': extracts categoryId from arguments, calls UpApiClient.getCategory(), and returns the JSON-formatted result as text content.
    case "up_get_category": {
      const args = request.params.arguments as { categoryId: string };
      const result = await client.getCategory(args.categoryId);
      return {
        content: [
          {
            type: "text",
            text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2),
          },
        ],
      };
    }
  • src/index.ts:334-349 (registration)
    Registration of the 'up_get_category' tool in the TOOLS array, including name, description, and input schema.
    {
      name: "up_get_category",
      description:
        "Get details about a specific category by ID, including its name and parent/child relationships.",
      inputSchema: {
        type: "object",
        properties: {
          categoryId: {
            type: "string",
            description:
              "The unique identifier for the category (e.g., 'restaurants-and-cafes')",
          },
        },
        required: ["categoryId"],
      },
    },
  • UpApiClient helper method implementing the core logic: makes an authenticated GET request to the Up API /categories/{categoryId} endpoint.
    async getCategory(categoryId: string): Promise<{ data: CategoryResource }> {
      return this.makeRequest(`/categories/${categoryId}`);
    }
  • TypeScript interface defining the structure of a CategoryResource object returned by the Up API.
    interface CategoryResource {
      type: "categories";
      id: string;
      attributes: {
        name: string;
      };
      relationships: {
        parent: {
          data: {
            type: "categories";
            id: string;
          } | null;
        };
        children: {
          data: Array<{
            type: "categories";
            id: string;
          }>;
        };
      };
    }
