Implementation Reference

  • Core handler method in TaskManagerServer that implements the deletion logic: loads data, finds and removes the uncompleted task from the request's tasks array, saves to file, generates progress table, and returns result.
    public async deleteTask(requestId: string, taskId: string) {
      await this.loadTasks();
      const req = this.data.requests.find((r) => r.requestId === requestId);
      if (!req) return { status: "error", message: "Request not found" };
    
      const taskIndex = req.tasks.findIndex((t) => t.id === taskId);
      if (taskIndex === -1) return { status: "error", message: "Task not found" };
      if (req.tasks[taskIndex].done)
        return { status: "error", message: "Cannot delete completed task" };
    
      req.tasks.splice(taskIndex, 1);
      await this.saveTasks();
    
      const progressTable = this.formatTaskProgressTable(requestId);
      return {
        status: "task_deleted",
        message: `Task ${taskId} has been deleted.\n${progressTable}`,
      };
    }
  • MCP tool dispatcher case for 'delete_task': parses input with schema, calls TaskManagerServer.deleteTask, and returns JSON stringified result as text content.
    case "delete_task": {
      const parsed = DeleteTaskSchema.safeParse(args);
      if (!parsed.success) {
        throw new Error(`Invalid arguments: ${parsed.error}`);
      }
      const { requestId, taskId } = parsed.data;
      const result = await taskManagerServer.deleteTask(requestId, taskId);
      return {
        content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2) }],
      };
    }
  • Zod schema used for input validation of delete_task tool arguments (requestId and taskId).
    const DeleteTaskSchema = z.object({
      requestId: z.string(),
      taskId: z.string(),
    });
  • index.ts:267-280 (registration)
    Tool object definition for 'delete_task', including name, description, and input schema; returned in listTools.
    const DELETE_TASK_TOOL: Tool = {
      name: "delete_task",
      description:
        "Delete a specific task from a request. Only uncompleted tasks can be deleted.\n\n" +
        "A progress table will be displayed showing the remaining tasks after deletion.",
      inputSchema: {
        type: "object",
        properties: {
          requestId: { type: "string" },
          taskId: { type: "string" },
        },
        required: ["requestId", "taskId"],
      },
    };
  • index.ts:683-696 (registration)
    Registration of all tools including DELETE_TASK_TOOL in the ListToolsRequestSchema handler.
    server.setRequestHandler(ListToolsRequestSchema, async () => ({
      tools: [
        REQUEST_PLANNING_TOOL,
        GET_NEXT_TASK_TOOL,
        MARK_TASK_DONE_TOOL,
        APPROVE_TASK_COMPLETION_TOOL,
        APPROVE_REQUEST_COMPLETION_TOOL,
        OPEN_TASK_DETAILS_TOOL,
        LIST_REQUESTS_TOOL,
        ADD_TASKS_TO_REQUEST_TOOL,
        UPDATE_TASK_TOOL,
        DELETE_TASK_TOOL,
