Instructions

Implementation Reference

• src/git/src/mcp_server_git/server.py:42-45 (schema)

  Pydantic model defining the input schema for the git_add tool, including repo_path (str) and files (list[str]).

  class GitAdd(BaseModel):
      repo_path: str
      files: list[str]

• src/git/src/mcp_server_git/server.py:131-136 (handler)

  Core handler function for git_add tool. Stages specified files (or all with ".") using GitPython's repo.git.add or repo.index.add, returns success message.

  def git_add(repo: git.Repo, files: list[str]) -> str:
      if files == ["."]:
          repo.git.add(".")
      else:
          repo.index.add(files)
      return "Files staged successfully"

• src/git/src/mcp_server_git/server.py:313-316 (registration)

  Registers the git_add tool (name='git_add' via GitTools.ADD) in the MCP server's list_tools() with description and input schema from GitAdd model.

      name=GitTools.ADD,
      description="Adds file contents to the staging area",
      inputSchema=GitAdd.model_json_schema(),
  ),

• src/git/src/mcp_server_git/server.py:101-101 (registration)

  Enum value in GitTools defining the tool name 'git_add'.

  ADD = "git_add"

• src/git/src/mcp_server_git/server.py:426-431 (helper)

  Dispatcher in call_tool() that invokes git_add handler with repo and files from arguments, wraps result in TextContent for MCP response.

  case GitTools.ADD:
      result = git_add(repo, arguments["files"])
      return [TextContent(
          type="text",
          text=result
      )]
