Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:158-170 (handler)MCP tool handler for 'download': parses input with downloadSchema, calls soulseekClient.download(), formats and returns success message with file details.
case 'download': { const parsed = downloadSchema.parse(args); const result = await soulseekClient.download(parsed.username, parsed.filename); return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: `Download complete!\n\nFile: ${result.filename}\nSize: ${formatSize(result.size)}\nSaved to: ${result.filePath}`, }, ], }; } - src/index.ts:16-19 (schema)Zod schema for validating 'download' tool input arguments: username and filename.
const downloadSchema = z.object({ username: z.string().describe('Username of the peer to download from'), filename: z.string().describe('Full file path from search results'), }); - src/index.ts:92-109 (registration)Registration of 'download' tool in ListToolsRequestSchema handler: defines name, description, and inputSchema.

Use the username and filename from search results.', inputSchema: { type: 'object', properties: { username: { type: 'string', description: 'Username of the peer to download from', }, filename: { type: 'string', description: 'Full file path from search results', }, }, required: ['username', 'filename'], }, }, - src/soulseek-client.ts:113-163 (helper)Core download implementation in SoulseekClientWrapper: ensures connection, creates download dir, downloads via SlskClient, pipes stream to file, returns DownloadResult.
