public async openTaskDetails(taskId: string) { await this.loadTasks(); for (const req of this.data.requests) { const target = req.tasks.find((t) => t.id === taskId); if (target) { return { status: "task_details", requestId: req.requestId, originalRequest: req.originalRequest, splitDetails: req.splitDetails, completed: req.completed, task: { id: target.id, title: target.title, description: target.description, done: target.done, approved: target.approved, completedDetails: target.completedDetails, }, }; } } return { status: "task_not_found", message: "No such task found" }; } - index.ts:776-786 (handler)The dispatch handler in the CallToolRequestSchema handler that parses the arguments using the schema and calls the openTaskDetails method on the server instance.
case "open_task_details": { const parsed = OpenTaskDetailsSchema.safeParse(args); if (!parsed.success) { throw new Error(`Invalid arguments: ${parsed.error}`); } const { taskId } = parsed.data; const result = await taskManagerServer.openTaskDetails(taskId); return { content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2) }], }; } - index.ts:71-73 (schema)Zod schema defining the input validation for the open_task_details tool, requiring a 'taskId' string.
const OpenTaskDetailsSchema = z.object({ taskId: z.string(), }); - index.ts:202-213 (registration)Tool registration object defining the name, description, and input schema for the open_task_details tool, used in listTools response.
const OPEN_TASK_DETAILS_TOOL: Tool = { name: "open_task_details", description: "Get details of a specific task by 'taskId'. This is for inspecting task information at any point.", inputSchema: { type: "object", properties: { taskId: { type: "string" }, }, required: ["taskId"], }, }; - index.ts:683-696 (registration)Registration of all tools including OPEN_TASK_DETAILS_TOOL in the listTools request handler.
