Implementation Reference
- index.ts:337-343 (handler)Core implementation of bazel_list_targets: runs `bazel query <path>/...` with optional additional args to list targets under the given path.
async listTargets(path: string, additionalArgs?: string[], onOutput?: (chunk: string) => void): Promise<string> { const queryPattern = `${path}/...`; const validatedArgs = this.validateAdditionalArgs(additionalArgs); const allArgs = [queryPattern, ...validatedArgs]; const { stdout } = await this.runBazelCommand("query", allArgs, onOutput); return stdout; } - index.ts:552-560 (handler)Entry point handler in MCP CallToolRequest: validates 'path' argument and calls BazelClient.listTargets.
case "bazel_list_targets": { const args = request.params.arguments as unknown as ListTargetsArgs; log(`Processing bazel_list_targets for path: ${args.path}`, 'info', false); if (!args.path) { throw new Error("Missing required argument: path"); } response = await bazelClient.listTargets(args.path, args.additionalArgs); break; } - index.ts:142-162 (schema)Tool schema: defines name, description, inputSchema with required 'path' (string) and optional 'additionalArgs' (string array).
const listTargetsTool: Tool = { name: "bazel_list_targets", description: "List all available Bazel targets under a given path", inputSchema: { type: "object", properties: { path: { type: "string", description: "Path within the workspace to list targets for (e.g. '//path/to' or '//' for all targets)", }, additionalArgs: { type: "array", items: { type: "string", }, description: "Additional Bazel command line arguments (e.g. ['--output=build', '--keep_going'])", }, }, required: ["path"], }, }; - index.ts:608-615 (registration)Registers bazel_list_targets (as listTargetsTool) among other tools in ListToolsResponse.
tools: [ buildTargetTool, queryTargetTool, testTargetTool, listTargetsTool, fetchDependenciesTool, setWorkspacePathTool, ], - index.ts:55-58 (schema)TypeScript interface defining expected arguments for bazel_list_targets.
