Implementation Reference
- The main handler function that implements the linear_addIssueLabel tool. It validates input using isAddIssueLabelArgs and calls linearService.addIssueLabel to add the label to the issue.
export function handleAddIssueLabel(linearService: LinearService) { return async (args: unknown) => { try { if (!isAddIssueLabelArgs(args)) { throw new Error('Invalid arguments for addIssueLabel'); } return await linearService.addIssueLabel(args.issueId, args.labelId); } catch (error) { logError('Error adding label to issue', error); throw error; } }; } - The schema definition for the linear_addIssueLabel tool, including input and output schemas.
