server.tool("get_profile", "Get the current user's Gmail profile", {}, async () => { return handleTool(config, async (gmail: gmail_v1.Gmail) => { const { data } = await gmail.users.getProfile({ userId: 'me' }) return formatResponse(data) }) } ) - src/index.ts:1292-1297 (handler)Inline handler logic for executing the 'get_profile' tool: authenticates via handleTool, fetches user profile from Gmail API, and formats response.
async () => { return handleTool(config, async (gmail: gmail_v1.Gmail) => { const { data } = await gmail.users.getProfile({ userId: 'me' }) return formatResponse(data) }) } - src/index.ts:50-66 (helper)Shared helper function used by 'get_profile' (and other tools) to handle OAuth2 authentication, client creation, and API call execution.
const handleTool = async (queryConfig: Record<string, any> | undefined, apiCall: (gmail: gmail_v1.Gmail) => Promise<any>) => { try { const oauth2Client = queryConfig ? createOAuth2Client(queryConfig) : defaultOAuth2Client if (!oauth2Client) throw new Error('OAuth2 client could not be created, please check your credentials') const credentialsAreValid = await validateCredentials(oauth2Client) if (!credentialsAreValid) throw new Error('OAuth2 credentials are invalid, please re-authenticate') const gmailClient = queryConfig ? google.gmail({ version: 'v1', auth: oauth2Client }) : defaultGmailClient if (!gmailClient) throw new Error('Gmail client could not be created, please check your credentials') const result = await apiCall(gmailClient) return result } catch (error: any) { return `Tool execution failed: ${error.message}` } } - src/index.ts:48-48 (helper)Helper function used to format the API response for MCP tools, including 'get_profile'.
