Implementation Reference

• gitlab_clone_mcp_server/server.py:80-93 (handler)

  The delete_project tool handler function. Takes a project_id (int) and optional token/ctx, sends a DELETE request to GitLab API /projects/{project_id}, and returns a success or error message.

  async def delete_project(project_id: int, token: str = None, ctx=None) -> str:
      """Delete a GitLab project.
      
      Args:
          project_id: GitLab project ID

          ctx: MCP context (automatically injected)
      """
      result = await make_gitlab_request(f"/projects/{project_id}", "DELETE", ctx=ctx, token=token)
      
      if isinstance(result, dict) and "error" in result:
          return f"Error deleting project: {result['error']}"
      
      return f"Project {project_id} deleted successfully"

• gitlab_clone_mcp_server/server.py:79-80 (registration)

  The tool is registered as an MCP tool via the @mcp.tool() decorator on line 79, which registers delete_project with FastMCP.

  The make_gitlab_request helper function handles the actual HTTP DELETE request to the GitLab API, used by delete_project.
