Implementation Reference

src/servicenow_mcp/tools/script_include_tools.py:262-331 (handler)

The handler function that executes the tool logic: sends a POST request to ServiceNow's sys_script_include table API with the provided parameters to create a new script include.

def create_script_include(
    config: ServerConfig,
    auth_manager: AuthManager,
    params: CreateScriptIncludeParams,
) -> ScriptIncludeResponse:
