Implementation Reference
- src/adt-client.ts:536-549 (handler)Core handler: debuggerGetVariables sends a POST to /sap/bc/adt/debugger?method=getVariables with an XML payload of requested variable names, returns the raw response data.
async debuggerGetVariables(variableNames: string[]): Promise<string> { this.ensureDebugSession(); const items = variableNames.map(n => `<dbg:variable><dbg:name>${this.escapeXml(n)}</dbg:name></dbg:variable>`).join(""); const xml = `<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <dbg:variableRequests xmlns:dbg="http://www.sap.com/adt/debugger">${items}</dbg:variableRequests>`; const resp = await this.http.post("/sap/bc/adt/debugger?method=getVariables", xml, { headers: this.statefulHeaders({ "Content-Type": "application/xml", Accept: "application/xml", }), responseType: "text", }); return resp.data as string; } - src/mcp-server.ts:735-745 (registration)Registration: Tool 'get_debugger_variables' registered in the MCP server's ListToolsRequestSchema handler with its input schema.

Returns value statements for each variable.", inputSchema: { type: "object" as const, properties: { variable_names: { type: "array", description: "Array of variable names to inspect" }, ...SYSTEM_ID_PROP, }, required: ["variable_names"], }, }, - src/mcp-server.ts:152-152 (schema)Schema definition: DebuggerVariablesSchema defines the input validation for 'get_debugger_variables' requiring an array of variable name strings.
const DebuggerVariablesSchema = z.object({ variable_names: z.array(z.string()) }); - src/mcp-server.ts:1238-1242 (handler)Handler routing: The CallToolRequestSchema dispatches 'get_debugger_variables' by parsing args with DebuggerVariablesSchema and calling client.debuggerGetVariables().
