            "--directory",
            "/path/to/akshare_mcp_server",
            "run",
            "akshare-mcp"
        ],
        "env": {

Adding a New Tool

To add a new tool to the MCP server, follow these steps:

1. Add a new API function in src/mcp_server_akshare/api.py:

   async def fetch_new_data_function(param1: str, param2: str = "default") -> List[Dict[str, Any]]:
       """
       Fetch new data type.
       
       Args:
           param1: Description of param1
           param2: Description of param2
       """
       try:
           df = ak.akshare_function_name(param1=param1, param2=param2)
           return dataframe_to_dict(df)
       except Exception as e:
           logger.error(f"Error fetching new data: {e}")
           raise

2. Add the new tool to the enum in src/mcp_server_akshare/server.py:

   class AKShareTools(str, Enum):
       # Existing tools...
       NEW_TOOL_NAME = "new_tool_name"

3. Import the new function in src/mcp_server_akshare/server.py:

   from .api import (
       # Existing imports...
       fetch_new_data_function,
   )

4. Add the tool definition to the handle_list_tools() function:

   types.Tool(
       name=AKShareTools.NEW_TOOL_NAME.value,
       description="Description of the new tool",
       inputSchema={
           "type": "object",
           "properties": {
               "param1": {"type": "string", "description": "Description of param1"},
               "param2": {"type": "string", "description": "Description of param2"},
           },
           "required": ["param1"],  # List required parameters
       },
   ),

5. Add the tool handler in the handle_call_tool() function:

   case AKShareTools.NEW_TOOL_NAME.value:
       param1 = arguments.get("param1")
       if not param1:
           raise ValueError("Missing required argument: param1")
       
       param2 = arguments.get("param2", "default")
       
       result = await fetch_new_data_function(
           param1=param1,
           param2=param2,
       )

6. Test the new tool by running the server and making a request to the new tool.
