Implementation Reference

• newrelic_mcp/server.py:442-453 (handler)

  The MCP tool handler for 'get_dashboard', decorated with @mcp.tool() for registration, which calls the NewRelicClient's get_dashboard method and serializes the result to JSON.

  @mcp.tool()
  async def get_dashboard(guid: str) -> str:
      """Get details for a specific dashboard"""
      if not client:
          return json.dumps({"error": "New Relic client not initialized"})
  
      try:
          result = await client.get_dashboard(guid)
          return json.dumps(result, indent=2)
      except Exception as e:
          return json.dumps({"error": str(e)}, indent=2)

• newrelic_mcp/server.py:213-246 (helper)

  The NewRelicClient method implementing the core logic to fetch dashboard details via NerdGraph GraphQL query.

  async def get_dashboard(self, guid: str) -> Dict[str, Any]:
      """Get details for a specific dashboard"""
      query = """
      query($guid: EntityGuid!) {
          actor {
