export const DeleteProjectColumnSchema = z.object({ column_id: z.number().describe("The unique identifier of the column"), }); - index.ts:240-244 (registration)Tool registration in the MCP server's listTools response, defining name, description, and input schema.
{ name: "delete_project_column", description: "Delete a project column", inputSchema: zodToJsonSchema(projects.DeleteProjectColumnSchema), }, - index.ts:666-672 (handler)Server-side handler in the CallToolRequest that parses input, invokes the deleteProjectColumn function, and returns the formatted response.
case "delete_project_column": { const args = projects.DeleteProjectColumnSchema.parse(request.params.arguments); const result = await projects.deleteProjectColumn(args.column_id); return { content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(result, null, 2) }], }; }
