Implementation Reference
- src/tools/templates.ts:70-86 (handler)Executes the tool logic: checks for hevyClient, fetches exercise template by ID, handles not found, formats with helper, returns JSON response.
async ({ exerciseTemplateId }: { exerciseTemplateId: string }) => { if (!hevyClient) { throw new Error( "API client not initialized. Please provide HEVY_API_KEY.", ); } const data = await hevyClient.getExerciseTemplate(exerciseTemplateId); if (!data) { return createEmptyResponse( `Exercise template with ID ${exerciseTemplateId} not found`, ); } const template = formatExerciseTemplate(data); return createJsonResponse(template); }, - src/tools/templates.ts:66-68 (schema)Zod schema for input parameters: exerciseTemplateId as non-empty string.
{ exerciseTemplateId: z.string().min(1), }, - src/tools/templates.ts:63-89 (registration)Registers the 'get-exercise-template' MCP tool with server.tool, specifying name, description, input schema, and error-handled handler function.
server.tool( "get-exercise-template", "Get complete details of a specific exercise template by its ID, including name, category, equipment, muscle groups, and notes.", { exerciseTemplateId: z.string().min(1), }, withErrorHandling( async ({ exerciseTemplateId }: { exerciseTemplateId: string }) => { if (!hevyClient) { throw new Error( "API client not initialized. Please provide HEVY_API_KEY.", ); } const data = await hevyClient.getExerciseTemplate(exerciseTemplateId); if (!data) { return createEmptyResponse( `Exercise template with ID ${exerciseTemplateId} not found`, ); } const template = formatExerciseTemplate(data); return createJsonResponse(template); }, "get-exercise-template", ), ); - src/utils/formatters.ts:249-260 (helper)Formats raw ExerciseTemplate from API into simplified FormattedExerciseTemplate used in the tool response.
export function formatExerciseTemplate( template: ExerciseTemplate, ): FormattedExerciseTemplate { return { id: template.id, title: template.title, type: template.type, primaryMuscleGroup: template.primary_muscle_group, secondaryMuscleGroups: template.secondary_muscle_groups, isCustom: template.is_custom, }; }
