Implementation Reference
- src/server/EnhancedMCPServerFixed.ts:493-504 (registration)Registration of the 'generate_fill' tool including name, description, and input schema.
{ name: 'generate_fill', description: 'Generate drum fill', inputSchema: { type: 'object', properties: { style: { type: 'string', description: 'Fill style' }, bars: { type: 'number', description: 'Number of bars' } }, required: ['style'] } }, - Input schema definition for the generate_fill tool specifying style (required) and optional bars.
inputSchema: { type: 'object', properties: { style: { type: 'string', description: 'Fill style' }, bars: { type: 'number', description: 'Number of bars' } }, required: ['style'] - Main handler logic for generate_fill: validates args, generates fill via PatternGenerator, appends to current pattern, writes it, and returns confirmation.
case 'generate_fill': InputValidator.validateStringLength(args.style, 'style', 100, false); if (args.bars !== undefined) { InputValidator.validatePositiveInteger(args.bars, 'bars'); } const fill = this.generator.generateFill(args.style, args.bars || 1); const currentFill = await this.getCurrentPatternSafe(); const newFillPattern = currentFill ? currentFill + '\n' + fill : fill; await this.writePatternSafe(newFillPattern); return `Generated ${args.bars || 1} bar fill`; - Implementation of generateFill method in PatternGenerator service, providing predefined Strudel patterns for different drum fill styles.
generateFill(style: string, bars: number = 1): string { const fills: Record<string, string> = { techno: `s("bd*8, cp*4").fast(${bars})`, house: `s("bd*4, cp*2, hh*16").fast(${bars})`, dnb: `s("bd*8, sn*8").fast(${bars * 2})`, trap: `s("bd*4, hh*32").fast(${bars})`, breakbeat: `s("bd cp bd cp, hh*8").iter(4).fast(${bars})` }; return fills[style] || fills.techno; }
