Implementation Reference
- src/tools/index.ts:167-181 (registration)Registration of the 'get_template' tool in the getToolDefinitions() array, including name, description, and input schema.
{ name: 'get_template', description: 'Get a component template for reference', inputSchema: { type: 'object', properties: { template: { type: 'string', description: 'Template name', enum: ['button', 'card', 'input', 'basic', 'composable'], }, }, required: ['template'], }, }, - src/tools/index.ts:506-548 (handler)The handler function that executes the get_template tool logic: extracts the template name from args, generates the corresponding component template code using imported generators, formats it with description, and returns as ToolResult.
function handleGetTemplate(args: Record<string, unknown>): ToolResult { const template = args.template as string; let code: string; let description: string; switch (template) { case 'button': code = generateButtonComponent(); description = 'A fully accessible button component with variants, sizes, and asChild support.'; break; case 'card': code = generateCardComponent(); description = 'A composable card component with Header, Title, Description, Content, and Footer sub-components.'; break; case 'input': code = generateInputComponent(); description = 'An accessible input component with proper focus states and styling.'; break; case 'composable': code = generateComposableComponent({ name: 'Example' }); description = 'A composable component template with Root, Trigger, and Content pattern using Context.'; break; case 'basic': default: code = generateBasicComponent({ name: 'Example', hasVariants: true }); description = 'A basic component template with CVA variants.'; break; } const text = `# Template: ${template} ${description} \`\`\`tsx ${code} \`\`\` `; return { content: [{ type: 'text', text }], }; } - src/tools/index.ts:249-250 (registration)Dispatch registration in the executeTool switch statement, routing 'get_template' calls to handleGetTemplate.
case 'get_template': return handleGetTemplate(args);
