Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:846-867 (handler)The main handler function for the 'bear_search' tool. It processes input arguments, constructs parameters for Bear's search URL, executes the search via executeWithCallback, and returns the results in a formatted text response.
private async search(args: any) { const params: Record<string, string | boolean> = {}; if (args.term) params.term = args.term; if (args.tag) params.tag = args.tag; if (args.token) params.token = args.token; if (args.show_window) params.show_window = "yes"; const searchData = await this.executeWithCallback("search", params); return { content: [ { type: "text", text: JSON.stringify({ message: `Searched Bear for: ${args.term || "all notes"}${args.tag ? ` in tag: ${args.tag}` : ""}`, results: searchData }, null, 2) } ] }; } - src/index.ts:446-470 (schema)Defines the tool name, description, and input schema for validation in the ListTools response.
