Implementation Reference
- src/banner.ts:6-8 (handler)The core handler function 'renderBanner' that executes the banner tool logic. Takes text and font parameters, uses the figlet library to render ASCII art.
export function renderBanner(text: string, font: BannerFont = 'Standard'): string { return figlet.textSync(text, { font }); } - src/mcp.ts:96-107 (registration)MCP tool registration for 'banner'. Registers the tool with name, description, Zod schema validation, and handler callback that calls renderBanner.
server.tool( 'banner', 'Render text as a large ASCII banner using FIGlet fonts. Great for CLI headers, welcome messages, and titles.', { text: z.string().max(50).describe('Text to render (max 50 chars)'), font: z.enum(BANNER_FONTS).default('Standard').describe('Font: Standard (default), Small (compact), Slant (italic), Big (bold), Mini (minimal)'), }, async ({ text, font }) => { const banner = renderBanner(text, font); return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: banner }] }; } ); - src/mcp.ts:99-101 (schema)Zod schema definition for the banner tool inputs. Validates 'text' (max 50 chars) and 'font' (enum with default).
{ text: z.string().max(50).describe('Text to render (max 50 chars)'), font: z.enum(BANNER_FONTS).default('Standard').describe('Font: Standard (default), Small (compact), Slant (italic), Big (bold), Mini (minimal)'), - src/banner.ts:3-4 (helper)BANNER_FONTS constant and BannerFont type definition. Defines the available font options for the banner tool.
export const BANNER_FONTS = ['Standard', 'Small', 'Slant', 'Big', 'Mini'] as const; export type BannerFont = (typeof BANNER_FONTS)[number]; - src/banner.ts:10-18 (helper)Helper function 'listBannerFonts' that returns font metadata with descriptions. Used by the /banner/fonts HTTP endpoint.
export function listBannerFonts(): { name: BannerFont; description: string }[] { return [ { name: 'Standard', description: 'Default balanced font' }, { name: 'Small', description: 'Compact, saves tokens' }, { name: 'Slant', description: 'Italic style' }, { name: 'Big', description: 'Bold emphasis' }, { name: 'Mini', description: 'Minimal 3-line font' }, ]; }
