Implementation Reference

  • The handler function that implements the core logic of the 'describe-service' tool by executing the 'kubectl describe service' command with the provided service name and optional namespace.
    case "describe-service": {
      const { service, namespace } = args;
      const nsArg = namespace ? `-n ${namespace}` : "";
      const cmd = `kubectl describe service ${service} ${nsArg}`;
      const { stdout } = await execAsync(cmd);
      return {
        content: [{ type: "text", text: stdout || "No service details found" }]
      };
    }
  • The input schema definition for the 'describe-service' tool, specifying the expected parameters: service (required string) and namespace (optional string). This is used for validation and documentation.
    inputSchema: {
      type: "object",
      properties: {
        service: { 
          type: "string",
          description: "The name of the service to describe"
        },
        namespace: { 
          type: "string",
          description: "The namespace of the service (optional, defaults to current context namespace)"
        }
      },
      required: ["service"]
    }
  • server.js:213-230 (registration)
    The tool registration object for 'describe-service' in the tools array, which is returned by the ListTools handler to advertise the tool's availability, name, description, and schema to MCP clients.
    {
      name: "describe-service",
      description: "Describe details of a Kubernetes service",
      inputSchema: {
        type: "object",
        properties: {
          service: { 
            type: "string",
            description: "The name of the service to describe"
          },
          namespace: { 
            type: "string",
            description: "The namespace of the service (optional, defaults to current context namespace)"
          }
        },
        required: ["service"]
      }
    },
