handler: async ({ template_id, name }: { template_id: string; name: string }): Promise<ToolResult> => { const readOnlyCheck = checkReadOnlyMode(); if (readOnlyCheck.blocked) { return { content: [{ type: "text", text: readOnlyCheck.message! }] }; } const result = await makeRequest(`https://api.sendgrid.com/v3/templates/${template_id}`, { method: "PATCH", body: JSON.stringify({ name }), }); return { content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2) }] }; }, - src/tools/templates.ts:66-73 (schema)Tool configuration including title, description, and Zod input schema defining the required parameters: template_id and name.
config: { title: "Update Template", description: "Update the name of an existing template", inputSchema: { template_id: z.string().describe("ID of the template to update"), name: z.string().describe("New name for the template"), }, }, - src/tools/templates.ts:65-86 (registration)The complete tool definition and registration within the exported templateTools object.
