Implementation Reference
- src/operations/drawings.ts:131-150 (handler)Core implementation of deleteDrawing: removes the drawing content and metadata files from the storage directory.
export async function deleteDrawing(id: string): Promise<void> { await ensureStorageDir(); // Get the drawing file path const filePath = path.join(STORAGE_DIR, `${id}.json`); const metadataPath = path.join(STORAGE_DIR, `${id}.meta.json`); try { // Check if the drawing exists await fs.access(filePath); // Delete the drawing file await fs.unlink(filePath); // Delete the metadata file await fs.unlink(metadataPath); } catch (error) { throw new ExcalidrawResourceNotFoundError(`Drawing with ID ${id} not found`); } } - index.ts:137-142 (handler)MCP tool call handler: parses input with schema and invokes the deleteDrawing function, returns success response.
case "delete_drawing": { const args = drawings.DeleteDrawingSchema.parse(request.params.arguments); await drawings.deleteDrawing(args.id); return { content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify({ success: true }, null, 2) }], }; - index.ts:78-81 (registration)Registration of the delete_drawing tool in the ListTools response, specifying name, description, and input schema.
name: "delete_drawing", description: "Delete an Excalidraw drawing by ID", inputSchema: zodToJsonSchema(drawings.DeleteDrawingSchema), }, - src/operations/drawings.ts:37-39 (schema)Zod input schema validation for delete_drawing tool: requires a non-empty string 'id'.
export const DeleteDrawingSchema = z.object({ id: z.string().min(1), });
