Implementation Reference
- src/tools/assignments.ts:62-78 (handler)Handler function that executes the assign_issue tool logic: validates args using assignIssueSchema, calls jiraClient.assignIssue(), and returns success message.
export async function handleAssignmentTool( name: string, args: Record<string, unknown>, jiraClient: JiraClient ) { switch (name) { case 'assign_issue': { const validatedArgs = await assignIssueSchema.validate(args); const _result = await jiraClient.assignIssue(validatedArgs); return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: `Issue ${validatedArgs.issueKey} assigned successfully`, }, ], }; - src/schemas/index.ts:102-106 (schema)Yup validation schema for assign_issue requiring issueKey (string) and assignee (string).
// Schema for assigning issue export const assignIssueSchema = yup.object({ issueKey: yup.string().required('Issue key is required'), assignee: yup.string().required('Assignee is required'), }); - src/tools/assignments.ts:11-27 (registration)Tool registration object defining name 'assign_issue', description, and inputSchema with issueKey and assignee required properties.
