Implementation Reference
- src/providers/icu/provider.ts:40-71 (handler)The handleSearch method within the IcuProvider class performs the API request to InfoCuria and formats the search results into Markdown.
private async handleSearch(args: Record<string, unknown>): Promise<ToolResult> { const { query, language = 'DE', limit = 10 } = args as { query: string; language?: string; limit?: number }; logger.info('Searching InfoCuria', { query, language }); const response = await axios.post(SEARCH_URL, { searchTerm: query, multiSearchTerms: [], sortTermList: [{ sortDirection: 'DESC', sortTerm: 'ALL_DATES' }], pagination: { pageNumber: 0, pageSize: limit, from: 1, to: limit * 2 }, language: language.toUpperCase(), tabName: 'tout_jurisprudence', isAllTabsRequest: false, isSearchExact: true, searchSources: ['document', 'metadata'], ecli: '', publishedId: '', usualName: '', logicDocId: '', }, { headers: HEADERS }); const hits = response.data.searchHits || []; const markdown = hits.map((hit: Record<string, Record<string, string>>, i: number) => { const c = hit.content; return `${i + 1}. **${c.docType}, ${c.docDate}, ${c.idPublished}**\n` + ` - ECLI: ${c.ecli || 'n/a'}\n` + ` - CELEX: \`${c.celex}\`\n` + ` - Court: ${c.affairJurisdiction}\n` + ` - Logic Doc ID: \`${c.logicDocId}\``; }).join('\n\n'); return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: `Found ${response.data.totalHits} results (showing ${hits.length}):\n\n${markdown}` }], }; } - Definition and input validation schema for the 'icu:search' tool.
