Implementation Reference
- python/f1_data.py:47-63 (handler)The core handler function that executes the tool logic: fetches F1 event data using fastf1.get_event based on year and identifier (name or round number), serializes it to JSON-compatible dict using json_serial helper.
def get_event_info(year, identifier): """Get information about a specific event""" try: year = int(year) # Identifier can be event name or round number if identifier.isdigit(): event = fastf1.get_event(year, int(identifier)) else: event = fastf1.get_event(year, identifier) # Convert Series to dict and clean non-serializable values event_dict = event.to_dict() clean_dict = {k: json_serial(v) for k, v in event_dict.items()} return {"status": "success", "data": clean_dict} except Exception as e: return {"status": "error", "message": str(e), "traceback": traceback.format_exc()} - src/index.ts:105-122 (schema)MCP tool schema definition: input validation schema specifying 'year' (number) and 'identifier' (string) parameters.
