Implementation Reference

  • The handler implementation for the get_task_definition tool. It takes taskName from input arguments, fetches the task definition from the Conductor API endpoint `/metadata/taskdefs/${taskName}`, and returns the response as formatted JSON text.
    case "get_task_definition": {
      const { taskName } = args as any;
      const response = await conductorClient.get(`/metadata/taskdefs/${taskName}`);
      
      return {
        content: [
          {
            type: "text",
            text: JSON.stringify(response.data, null, 2),
          },
        ],
      };
    }
