Implementation Reference

  • The handler function that implements the 'follow-user' tool. It resolves the provided handle to a DID using agent.resolveHandle, then calls agent.follow(did) to perform the follow action, with proper error handling.
      if (!agent) {
        return mcpErrorResponse("Not logged in. Please check your environment variables.");
      }
    
      try {
        // Resolve the handle to a DID
        const resolveResponse = await agent.resolveHandle({ handle: cleanHandle(handle) });
        
        if (!resolveResponse.success) {
          return mcpErrorResponse(`Failed to resolve handle: ${handle}`);
        }
        
        const did = resolveResponse.data.did;
        await agent.follow(did);
        
        return mcpSuccessResponse(`Successfully followed @${handle}`);
      } catch (error) {
        return mcpErrorResponse(`Error following user: ${error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error)}`);
      }
    }
  • Input schema using Zod: requires a 'handle' parameter which is a string describing the user's handle (e.g., alice.bsky.social).
      handle: z.string().describe("The handle of the user to follow"),
    },
    async ({ handle }) => {
