Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:439-470 (handler)The main handler function that executes the tool logic: filters ink search data by maker name (case-insensitive), retrieves corresponding color data, creates search results, and returns formatted JSON response.
private getInksByMaker(maker: string, maxResults: number): MCPTextResponse { const makerLower = maker.toLowerCase(); const makerInks = this.inkSearchData .filter((item) => item.maker.toLowerCase() === makerLower) .slice(0, maxResults); const results: SearchResult[] = []; for (const metadata of makerInks) { const inkColor = this.inkColors.find((ink) => ink.ink_id === metadata.ink_id); if (inkColor) { results.push(createSearchResult(inkColor, metadata)); } } return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify( { maker, results_count: results.length, results, }, null, 2, ), }, ], } satisfies MCPTextResponse; } - src/index.ts:192-210 (registration)Tool registration in ListToolsRequest handler, defining the tool name, description, and input schema (maker: string required, max_results: number optional default 50).
