Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:123-145 (handler)The main handler function for the 'create_snippet' tool. It validates input arguments, creates a new CodeSnippet object with an ID, title, language, code, optional tags, and creation timestamp, inserts it into the storage engine, and returns a success message.
private async createSnippet(args: any): Promise<GenericMCPResponse> { if (!args || typeof args.title !== 'string' || typeof args.language !== 'string' || typeof args.code !== 'string') { throw new McpError(ErrorCode.InvalidParams, 'Invalid snippet parameters'); } const newSnippet: CodeSnippet = { id: Date.now().toString(), title: args.title, language: args.language, code: args.code, tags: args.tags || [], createdAt: new Date().toISOString() }; await this.engine.InsertSnippet(newSnippet); return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: this.getLocalizedString("snippet_created", newSnippet.title, newSnippet.id) }] }; } - src/index.ts:54-67 (schema)The input schema for the 'create_snippet' tool, defining properties for title (string), language (string), code (string), and optional tags (array of strings), with title, language, and code required.
