Implementation Reference
- server.js:629-641 (handler)The MCP tool handler for 'get_user_followers' that validates arguments using UserParamsSchema, fetches data via apiClient, and returns a standardized JSON response.
handler: async (args) => { const { user, limit = 20, offset = 0 } = UserParamsSchema.parse(args); const result = await apiClient.getUserFollowers(user, limit, offset); return { content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify({ success: true, data: result, message: `Successfully retrieved ${result.items?.length || 0} followers of ${user}` }, null, 2) }] }; - server.js:609-627 (schema)Input schema definition for the 'get_user_followers' tool, specifying parameters user (required), limit, and offset with descriptions and defaults.
inputSchema: { type: "object", properties: { user: { type: "string", description: "Username" }, limit: { type: "number", description: "Number of users to return (default: 20)", default: 20 }, offset: { type: "number", description: "Number of users to skip (default: 0)", default: 0 } }, required: ["user"] - server.js:159-162 (helper)Helper method in WebSimAPIClient class that constructs and sends HTTP request to retrieve followers for a given user from the WebSim API.
async getUserFollowers(user, limit = 20, offset = 0) { const params = new URLSearchParams({ limit: limit.toString(), offset: offset.toString() }); return this.makeRequest(`/api/v1/users/${user}/followers?${params}`); } - server.js:37-39 (schema)Zod schema used for input validation in the 'get_user_followers' handler (and other user-related tools), requiring a 'user' string.
const UserParamsSchema = z.object({ user: z.string().describe('Username') }); - server.js:606-642 (registration)Full tool registration object added to the 'tools' array, which is used by the MCP server for tool listing and execution.
