Implementation Reference
- The main handler function that executes the tool logic: extracts params, fetches chapter topics via secureFetch from 'index/catalog/chapter' endpoint, adds housing warnings to summary, and returns topics array with summary.
export async function getChapterTopics( args: z.infer<typeof getChapterTopicsSchema> ) { // Extract global parameters const globalParams: GlobalParams = { lang: args.lang, page: args.page, pagesize: args.pagesize, } const data = await secureFetch( "index/catalog/chapter", { id: args.chapterId, format: "json", download: "false" }, chapterTopicsResponseSchema, globalParams ) // Check for housing-related warnings const housingWarning = checkHousingWarnings(args.chapterId) const baseSummary = `Found ${data.subject.length} topics in chapter ${args.chapterId}.` return { topics: data.subject, summary: addHousingWarningsToSummary(baseSummary, housingWarning), } } - src/schemas/request.schema.ts:56-63 (schema)Input schema using Zod: requires chapterId (number), optional lang, page, pagesize, explanation.
export const getChapterTopicsSchema = z.object({ chapterId: chapterSchema, ...globalParamsSchema, explanation: z .string() .optional() .describe("Additional explanation or context for the request"), }) - src/index.ts:126-144 (registration)Registers the tool named 'get_chapter_topics' with the MCP server, providing description, inputSchema from getChapterTopicsSchema, and a rate-limited wrapper that calls the handler and returns JSON stringified result as text content.
server.registerTool( "get_chapter_topics", { description: "Get topics for a specific chapter from Israel Statistics API", inputSchema: getChapterTopicsSchema.shape, }, withRateLimit(async (args) => { const result = await getChapterTopics(args) return { content: [ { type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(result), }, ], } }) )
