Use list_vaults to see available vaults or create_vault to add a new one.' } ] }; } // Find the vault ID const vaults = this.globalConfig.listVaults(); const currentVaultEntry = vaults.find(v => v.is_current); const vaultId = currentVaultEntry?.info.id || 'unknown'; return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: `🟢 **Current Vault**: ${currentVault.name} (${vaultId}) **Path**: ${currentVault.path} **Created**: ${new Date(currentVault.created).toLocaleDateString()} **Last accessed**: ${new Date(currentVault.last_accessed).toLocaleDateString()}${currentVault.description ? `\n**Description**: ${currentVault.description}` : ''}` } ] }; } catch (error) { const errorMessage = error instanceof Error ? error.message : 'Unknown error'; return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: `Failed to get current vault: ${errorMessage}` } ] }; } }; - src/server/tool-schemas.ts:630-637 (schema)The input schema definition for the 'get_current_vault' tool, specifying no required parameters.
