server.tool("get_user", "Get the current user's information", {}, async () => { const user = await makePlaneRequest("GET", "users/me/"); return { content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(user, null, 2) }], }; }); - src/tools/index.ts:15-15 (registration)Registers the user tools module (including the 'get_user' tool) by invoking registerUserTools on the MCP server.
registerUserTools(server); - src/server.ts:15-15 (registration)Top-level registration of all tools, including 'get_user', by calling registerTools(server).
registerTools(server); - src/common/request-helper.ts:3-36 (helper)Utility function makePlaneRequest, used by the 'get_user' handler to make authenticated API requests to Plane.
