Implementation Reference

  • MCP tool handler: validates parameters, calls the WAHA client method, returns formatted success message.
    private async handleSetGroupInfoAdminOnly(args: any) {
      const groupId = args.groupId;
      const adminsOnly = args.adminsOnly;
    
      if (!groupId) {
        throw new Error("groupId is required");
      }
    
      if (adminsOnly === undefined) {
        throw new Error("adminsOnly is required");
      }
    
      await this.wahaClient.setGroupInfoAdminOnly({
        groupId,
        adminsOnly,
      });
    
      return {
        content: [
          {
            type: "text",
            text: `Successfully set group ${groupId} info editing to ${adminsOnly ? 'admins only' : 'all members'}.`,
          },
        ],
      };
    }
  • Input schema definition for the tool, specifying required groupId (string) and adminsOnly (boolean). Provided in the list of tools response.
    {
      name: "waha_set_group_info_admin_only",
      description: "Toggle whether only admins can edit group info. Requires admin privileges.",
      inputSchema: {
        type: "object",
        properties: {
          groupId: {
            type: "string",
            description: "Group ID (format: number@g.us)",
          },
          adminsOnly: {
            type: "boolean",
            description: "True = only admins can edit, false = all members can edit",
          },
        },
        required: ["groupId", "adminsOnly"],
      },
  • src/index.ts:1128-1130 (registration)
    Tool dispatch/registration in the CallToolRequestSchema switch statement, routing calls to the handler.
      return await this.handleSetGroupMessagesAdminOnly(args);
    case "waha_set_group_info_admin_only":
      return await this.handleSetGroupInfoAdminOnly(args);
  • Underlying WAHA client method that performs the actual API PUT request to toggle group info admin-only setting.
    async setGroupInfoAdminOnly(params: {
      groupId: string;
      adminsOnly: boolean;
    }): Promise<void> {
      const { groupId, adminsOnly } = params;
    
      if (!groupId) {
        throw new WAHAError("groupId is required");
      }
    
      if (adminsOnly === undefined) {
        throw new WAHAError("adminsOnly is required");
      }
    
      const endpoint = `/api/${this.session}/groups/${encodeURIComponent(groupId)}/settings/security/info-admin-only`;
    
      const body = { adminsOnly };
    
      await this.request<void>(endpoint, {
        method: "PUT",
        body: JSON.stringify(body),
      });
    }
