Implementation Reference

• src/mcp_server_monday/fastmcp_server.py:287-300 (handler)

  The FastMCP tool handler decorated with @mcp.tool() for the 'monday_get_item_updates' tool. It retrieves the Monday client, calls the core helper function, and returns the formatted text result or error.

  async def monday_get_item_updates(itemId: str, limit: int = 25) -> str:
      """Get updates for a specific item in Monday.com.
  
      Args:
          itemId: ID of the Monday.com item to get updates for.
          limit: Maximum number of updates to retrieve. Default is 25.

• src/mcp_server_monday/item.py:203-274 (helper)

  The core implementation function 'handle_monday_get_item_updates' that executes a GraphQL query to fetch the latest updates for a Monday.com item, formats the response with details like creator, body, and assets, and returns TextContent.
