Implementation Reference
- src/handlers/tag-operations.js:11-59 (handler)The core implementation of the git_create_tag tool handler. It uses simpleGit to create either a lightweight or annotated tag in the specified repository, returning success/error JSON responses.
export async function handleGitCreateTag({ repo_path, tag_name, message = "", annotated = true, }) { try { const git = simpleGit(repo_path); if (annotated) { await git.addAnnotatedTag(tag_name, message); } else { await git.addTag(tag_name); } return { content: [ { type: "text", text: JSON.stringify( { success: true, message: `Created ${ annotated ? "annotated " : "" }tag: ${tag_name}`, tag: tag_name, }, null, 2 ), }, ], }; } catch (error) { return { content: [ { type: "text", text: JSON.stringify( { error: `Failed to create tag: ${error.message}` }, null, 2 ), }, ], isError: true, }; } } - src/server.js:509-536 (schema)Defines the input schema, description, and parameters for the git_create_tag tool in the MCP tools list.
