Registered via the @mcp.tool() decorator, which also defines the input schema via type hints and docstring.
@mcp.tool() async def delete(key: str) -> str: """Delete a Redis key. Args: key (str): The key to delete. Returns: str: Confirmation message or an error message. """ try: r = RedisConnectionManager.get_connection() result = r.delete(key) return f"Successfully deleted {key}" if result else f"Key {key} not found" except RedisError as e: return f"Error deleting key {key}: {str(e)}"
