Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:1129-1146 (handler)The main handler function that implements the get_assay_info tool. It fetches detailed assay information from the PubChem API using the provided AID and returns the JSON response.
private async handleGetAssayInfo(args: any) { try { const response = await this.apiClient.get(`/assay/aid/${args.aid}/JSON`); return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: JSON.stringify(response.data, null, 2), }, ], }; } catch (error) { throw new McpError( ErrorCode.InternalError, `Failed to get assay info: ${error instanceof Error ? error.message : 'Unknown error'}` ); } } - src/index.ts:590-598 (schema)The input schema definition for the get_assay_info tool, specifying that it requires a numeric 'aid' parameter (PubChem Assay ID).
name: 'get_assay_info', description: 'Get detailed information for a specific bioassay by AID', inputSchema: { type: 'object', properties: { aid: { type: 'number', description: 'PubChem Assay ID (AID)' }, }, required: ['aid'], }, - src/index.ts:782-783 (registration)The switch case in the tool request handler that routes calls to 'get_assay_info' to the handleGetAssayInfo method.
