  @mcp.tool()
  def get_current_date() -> str:
      """Get the current date.
  
      Returns:
          str: The current date in YYYY-MM-DD format
      """
      try:
          current_date = datetime.now().strftime("%Y-%m-%d")
          return current_date
      except Exception as e:
          return f"Error getting current date: {e!s}"

• main.py:23-23 (registration)

• generic_api.py:9-13 (schema)

  The docstring in the get_current_date handler defines the tool's description and output schema (str in YYYY-MM-DD format).
