Implementation Reference

• src/noctua_mcp/mcp_server.py:242-243 (registration)

  Registration of the add_fact MCP tool via @mcp.tool() decorator

  @mcp.tool()
  async def add_fact(

• src/noctua_mcp/mcp_server.py:242-335 (handler)

  Handler implementation for the add_fact tool: adds a fact (edge) between two individuals in a GO-CAM model. Resolves variables, calls req_add_fact, executes via m3_batch, and returns success/error response.

  @mcp.tool()
  async def add_fact(
      model_id: str,
      subject_id: str,
      object_id: str,
      predicate_id: str
  ) -> Dict[str, Any]:
      """
      Add a fact (edge/relation) between two individuals in a model.
  
      Args:
          model_id: The GO-CAM model identifier
          subject_id: Subject individual ID or variable
          object_id: Object individual ID or variable
          predicate_id: Relation predicate (e.g., "RO:0002333" for enabled_by)
  
      Returns:
          Barista API response
