Implementation Reference
- src/tools/connection-state.ts:5-23 (handler)The handler function that registers and implements the 'connection_state' tool. It calls the Evolution API endpoint /instance/connectionState/{instanceName} and returns the connection state data.
export function registerConnectionState(server: McpServer, client: EvolutionClient): void { server.registerTool( "connection_state", { title: "Connection State", description: "Get the current connection state of the pinned WhatsApp instance (open, close, connecting).", inputSchema: {}, }, async () => { try { const data = await client.get(`/instance/connectionState/${client.instanceName}`); return { content: [{ type: "text" as const, text: JSON.stringify(data, null, 2) }] }; } catch (e) { if (e instanceof McpError) return { isError: true, content: [{ type: "text" as const, text: e.message }] }; throw e; } } ); } - src/tools/index.ts:131-131 (registration)Registration call that wires up the connection_state tool handler.
registerConnectionState(server, client); - src/tools/index.ts:58-58 (helper)Import of the registerConnectionState function from its module.
