Implementation Reference
- src/tools/labels.ts:93-107 (handler)The handler function for the 'create_label' tool. It destructures the arguments, prepares the label data, makes a POST request to the API to create the label, and formats the response.
async (args) => { const { board_id, title, bg_color, color } = args; const labelData: any = { label: title, bg_color, color, }; const response = await api.post( `/projects/${board_id}/labels`, labelData ); return formatResponse(response.data); } - src/tools/labels.ts:81-108 (registration)Registers the 'create_label' tool with the MCP server, providing name, description, input schema, and handler function.
server.tool( "create_label", "Create a new label on a board", { board_id: z.number().int().positive().describe("Board ID"), title: z.string().min(1).describe("Label title/text"), bg_color: z.string().describe("Background color (hex) - e.g., #4bce97"), color: z .string() .default("#1B2533") .describe("Text color (hex) - defaults to #1B2533"), }, async (args) => { const { board_id, title, bg_color, color } = args; const labelData: any = { label: title, bg_color, color, }; const response = await api.post( `/projects/${board_id}/labels`, labelData ); return formatResponse(response.data); } ); - src/types/index.ts:47-52 (schema)Zod schema definition for CreateLabel inputs, matching the inline schema used in the tool registration.
export const CreateLabelSchema = z.object({ board_id: z.number().int().positive(), title: z.string().min(1), bg_color: z.string(), color: z.string().default("#1B2533"), }); - src/index.ts:25-25 (registration)Calls registerLabelTools to register all label-related tools, including 'create_label', on the MCP server.
registerLabelTools(server);
