hold_order_until

Implementation Reference

• src/tools/order-tools.js:192-204 (handler)

  MCP tool handler that extracts orderId and holdUntilDate from params, calls shipStationClient.holdOrderUntil API method, and returns JSON response or error.

  handler: async ({ orderId, holdUntilDate }) => {
    try {
      const result = await shipStationClient.holdOrderUntil({ orderId, holdUntilDate });
      return {
        content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2) }]
      };
    } catch (error) {
      return {
        content: [{ type: "text", text: error.message }],
        isError: true
      };
    }
  }

• src/tools/order-tools.js:188-190 (schema)

  Input schema using Zod for validating orderId (number) and holdUntilDate (string YYYY-MM-DD).

  schema: {
    orderId: z.number().describe("Order ID to hold"),
    holdUntilDate: z.string().describe("Date to hold until (YYYY-MM-DD)")

• src/tools/order-tools.js:185-205 (registration)

  Complete tool definition object in orderTools array, which is imported and registered via server.tool() in server.js.

  {
    name: "hold_order_until",
    description: "Hold an order until a specified date",
    schema: {
      orderId: z.number().describe("Order ID to hold"),
      holdUntilDate: z.string().describe("Date to hold until (YYYY-MM-DD)")
    },
    handler: async ({ orderId, holdUntilDate }) => {
      try {
        const result = await shipStationClient.holdOrderUntil({ orderId, holdUntilDate });
        return {
          content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2) }]
        };
      } catch (error) {
        return {
          content: [{ type: "text", text: error.message }],
          isError: true
        };
      }
    }
  }

• src/api-client.js:80-82 (helper)

  ShipStationClient helper method that makes the actual POST request to ShipStation API endpoint /orders/holduntil.

  async holdOrderUntil(data) {
    return this.request('POST', '/orders/holduntil', data);
  }

• src/server.js:184-191 (registration)

  MCP server.tool() registration loop that spreads orderTools (including hold_order_until) and registers each tool.

  ].forEach(tool => {
    server.tool(
      tool.name,
      tool.schema,
      tool.handler,
      { description: tool.description }
    );
  });
