Implementation Reference
- src/kiro_cli_mcp/server.py:196-215 (handler)Primary handler function _handle_chat that executes the core logic: extracts arguments, gets/creates session, executes chat via command_executor, handles streaming flag (fallback), returns response as dict.
async def _handle_chat( session_manager: SessionManager, command_executor: CommandExecutor, arguments: dict[str, Any] ) -> dict[str, Any]: """Handle kiro_chat tool call.""" message = arguments.get("message", "") session_id = arguments.get("session_id") stream = arguments.get("stream", False) session = await session_manager.get_or_create_session(session_id) if stream: # Note: Streaming not fully supported in current MCP SDK # Fall back to non-streaming logger.warning("Streaming requested but not fully supported, using non-streaming") response = await command_executor.execute_chat(session, message) return response.to_dict() - src/kiro_cli_mcp/tools.py:7-29 (schema)Input schema definition for the kiro_chat tool, specifying parameters: message (required), session_id (optional), stream (boolean, default False).
