Implementation Reference

  • The main handler logic for the 'get_event_teams_simple' tool. It validates the event_key input using Zod, makes an API request to The Blue Alliance (TBA) at `/event/${event_key}/teams/simple`, parses the response as an array of TeamSimpleSchema objects, and returns the JSON stringified data.
    case 'get_event_teams_simple': {
      const { event_key } = z.object({ event_key: EventKeySchema }).parse(args);
      const data = await makeApiRequest(`/event/${event_key}/teams/simple`);
      const teams = z.array(TeamSimpleSchema).parse(data);
      return {
        content: [
          {
            type: 'text',
            text: JSON.stringify(teams, null, 2),
          },
        ],
      };
    }
  • src/tools.ts:756-768 (registration)
    Tool registration in the exported tools array, including the name, description, and input schema definition for MCP tool listing.
      name: 'get_event_teams_simple',
      description: 'Get simplified teams participating in an event',
      inputSchema: {
        type: 'object',
        properties: {
          event_key: {
            type: 'string',
            description: 'Event key (e.g., 2023casj)',
          },
        },
        required: ['event_key'],
      },
    },
  • Zod schema for simplified team data (TeamSimpleSchema), used to validate the output array from the TBA API in the handler.
    export const TeamSimpleSchema = z.object({
      key: z.string(),
      team_number: z.number(),
      nickname: z.string().nullish(),
      name: z.string(),
      city: z.string().nullish(),
      state_prov: z.string().nullish(),
      country: z.string().nullish(),
    });
  • Zod schema for event key strings (EventKeySchema), used for input validation in the handler.
    export const EventKeySchema = z.string();
