Implementation Reference

• goodday_mcp/main.py:321-336 (handler)

  The core handler function for the 'get_project' MCP tool. It takes a project_id, fetches the project data from the Goodday API using make_goodday_request, handles errors, and formats the output using format_project.

  async def get_project(project_id: str) -> str:
      """Get details of a specific project.
  
      Args:
          project_id: The ID of the project to retrieve
      """
      data = await make_goodday_request(f"project/{project_id}")
      
      if not data:
          return "Project not found."
      
      if isinstance(data, dict) and "error" in data:
          return f"Unable to fetch project: {data.get('error', 'Unknown error')}"
      
      return format_project(data)

• goodday_mcp/main.py:115-134 (helper)

  Helper function called by get_project to format the raw project dictionary into a human-readable string with defensive checks for nested data.
