Implementation Reference
- src/handlers/cicd-handlers.ts:141-155 (handler)The main ToolHandler function implementing the gitlab_update_cicd_variable tool. It extracts parameters, validates required fields, calls context.ciCdManager.updateCiCdVariable, and formats the response.
export const updateCiCdVariable: ToolHandler = async (params, context) => { const { project_id, key, value, protected: isProtected, masked, variable_type, environment_scope } = params.arguments || {}; if (!project_id || !key) { throw new McpError(ErrorCode.InvalidParams, 'project_id and key are required'); } const data = await context.ciCdManager.updateCiCdVariable(project_id as string | number, key as string, { value: value as string, protected: isProtected as boolean | undefined, masked: masked as boolean | undefined, variable_type: variable_type as 'env_var' | 'file' | undefined, environment_scope: environment_scope as string | undefined }); return formatResponse(data); }; - src/utils/tools-data.ts:668-697 (schema)The input schema definition for the gitlab_update_cicd_variable tool, specifying parameters and requirements.
