Implementation Reference
- src/tools/search.ts:126-169 (handler)The handler logic for 'search_advanced', which executes a regex search over files in the notes directory.
case "search_advanced": { const { pattern, includeMetadata } = args as { pattern: string; includeMetadata?: boolean }; const results: string[] = []; try { const regex = new RegExp(pattern, "gi"); if (fs.existsSync(NOTES_DIR)) { const files = fs.readdirSync(NOTES_DIR); for (const file of files) { const filePath = path.join(NOTES_DIR, file); const content = fs.readFileSync(filePath, "utf-8"); const stats = fs.statSync(filePath); if (regex.test(content)) { let result = `${file}: ${content.substring(0, 100)}...`; if (includeMetadata) { result += `\n Size: ${stats.size} bytes`; result += `\n Modified: ${stats.mtime.toISOString()}`; // VULNERABILITY: Leaking full path result += `\n Path: ${path.resolve(filePath)}`; } results.push(result); } } } } catch (e) { return { content: [{ type: "text", text: `Invalid regex pattern: ${pattern}` }], }; } return { content: [{ type: "text", text: results.length > 0 ? `Advanced search found ${results.length} matches:\n${results.join("\n\n")}` : "No matching notes found" }], }; } - src/tools/search.ts:53-73 (schema)The schema definition for the 'search_advanced' tool, including the 'pattern' and 'includeMetadata' input fields.
