Implementation Reference
- src/radicle_mcp/server.py:137-151 (handler)The core handler function for the 'rad_sync' MCP tool. It is registered via the @mcp.tool() decorator and executes the 'rad sync' command in the given repository path using the run_rad_command helper, returning formatted success or error messages.
