- src/handlers/document-handlers.ts:5-24 (handler)The main handler function for the 'readwise_save_document' tool. It initializes the Readwise client, casts arguments to CreateDocumentRequest, calls client.createDocument(), formats a success response with document details and any messages, and returns it in MCP content format.
export async function handleSaveDocument(args: any) { const client = initializeClient(); const data = args as unknown as CreateDocumentRequest; const response = await client.createDocument(data); let responseText = `Document saved successfully!\nID: ${response.data.id}\nTitle: ${response.data.title || 'Untitled'}\nURL: ${response.data.url}\nLocation: ${response.data.location}`; if (response.messages && response.messages.length > 0) { responseText += '\n\nMessages:\n' + response.messages.map(msg => `${msg.type.toUpperCase()}: ${msg.content}`).join('\n'); } return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: responseText, }, ], }; } - src/tools/tool-definitions.ts:4-37 (schema)The input schema definition for the 'readwise_save_document' tool, specifying parameters like url (required), html, tags, location, and category with types and descriptions.
