ask_openai

Instructions

Implementation Reference

• src/index.js:190-226 (handler)

  The handler function that executes the 'ask_openai' tool logic. Validates inputs, calls OpenAI chat completions API, handles specific errors like rate limits, and formats the response as MCP content.

  async handleOpenAI(args) {
    if (!this.openai) {
      throw new ConfigurationError(ERROR_MESSAGES.OPENAI_NOT_CONFIGURED);
    }
  
    // Validate inputs
    const prompt = validatePrompt(args.prompt);
    const model = validateModel(args.model, 'OPENAI');
    const temperature = validateTemperature(args.temperature, 'OPENAI');
  
    try {
      if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'test') logger.debug(`OpenAI request - model: ${model}, temperature: ${temperature}`);
      
      const completion = await this.openai.chat.completions.create({
        model: model,
        messages: [{ role: 'user', content: prompt }],
        temperature: temperature,
      });
  
      return {
        content: [
          {
            type: 'text',
            text: `🤖 OPENAI RESPONSE (${model}):\n\n${completion.choices[0].message.content}`,
          },
        ],
      };
    } catch (error) {
      if (error.status === 429) {
        throw new APIError('OpenAI rate limit exceeded. Please try again later.', 'OpenAI');
      } else if (error.status === 401) {
        throw new ConfigurationError('Invalid OpenAI API key');
      } else {
        throw new APIError(`OpenAI API error: ${error.message}`, 'OpenAI');
      }
    }
  }

• src/index.js:93-115 (schema)

  Input schema for the 'ask_openai' tool, defining properties for prompt (required), model (with enum), and temperature (with bounds). Used for tool specification and validation.

  inputSchema: {
    type: 'object',
    properties: {
      prompt: {
        type: 'string',
        description: 'The prompt to send to OpenAI',
      },
      model: {
        type: 'string',
        description: `The model to use (default: ${DEFAULTS.OPENAI.MODEL})`,
        enum: MODELS.OPENAI,
        default: DEFAULTS.OPENAI.MODEL,
      },
      temperature: {
        type: 'number',
        description: `Temperature for response generation (${DEFAULTS.OPENAI.MIN_TEMPERATURE}-${DEFAULTS.OPENAI.MAX_TEMPERATURE})`,
        default: DEFAULTS.OPENAI.TEMPERATURE,
        minimum: DEFAULTS.OPENAI.MIN_TEMPERATURE,
        maximum: DEFAULTS.OPENAI.MAX_TEMPERATURE,
      },
    },
    required: ['prompt'],
  },

• src/index.js:90-116 (registration)

  Registers the 'ask_openai' tool in the available tools list (conditionally if OpenAI client is initialized), providing name, description, and input schema for MCP listTools.

  tools.push({
    name: 'ask_openai',
    description: 'Ask OpenAI GPT models a question',
    inputSchema: {
      type: 'object',
      properties: {
        prompt: {
          type: 'string',
          description: 'The prompt to send to OpenAI',
        },
        model: {
          type: 'string',
          description: `The model to use (default: ${DEFAULTS.OPENAI.MODEL})`,
          enum: MODELS.OPENAI,
          default: DEFAULTS.OPENAI.MODEL,
        },
        temperature: {
          type: 'number',
          description: `Temperature for response generation (${DEFAULTS.OPENAI.MIN_TEMPERATURE}-${DEFAULTS.OPENAI.MAX_TEMPERATURE})`,
          default: DEFAULTS.OPENAI.TEMPERATURE,
          minimum: DEFAULTS.OPENAI.MIN_TEMPERATURE,
          maximum: DEFAULTS.OPENAI.MAX_TEMPERATURE,
        },
      },
      required: ['prompt'],
    },
  });

• src/index.js:174-175 (registration)

  Registers the dispatch for 'ask_openai' tool calls within the main CallToolRequestSchema handler switch statement.

  case 'ask_openai':
    return await this.handleOpenAI(args);
