Implementation Reference

• mcp_azure_devops/server.py:1091-1102 (handler)

  Handler function that implements the logic for get_tool_documentation by retrieving the tool's metadata from the self.tools list.

  def _get_tool_documentation(self, tool_name: str) -> Dict[str, Any]:
      """Get documentation for a specific tool."""
      tool = next((t for t in self.tools if t.name == tool_name), None)
      if tool:
          return {
              "name": tool.name,
              "description": tool.description,
              "inputSchema": tool.inputSchema,
          }
      else:
          return {"error": f"Tool '{tool_name}' not found."}

• mcp_azure_devops/server.py:563-577 (schema)

  Schema definition and registration of the get_tool_documentation tool, including input schema.

  types.Tool(
      name="get_tool_documentation",
      description="Gets detailed documentation for a specific tool including parameters and examples.",
      inputSchema={
          "type": "object",
          "properties": {
              "tool_name": {
                  "type": "string", 
                  "description": "The name of the tool to get documentation for."
              },
          },
          "required": ["tool_name"],
          "additionalProperties": False
      }
  ),

• mcp_azure_devops/server.py:899-900 (registration)

  Dispatch/registration in the _execute_tool method that routes calls to the get_tool_documentation handler.

  elif name == "get_tool_documentation":
      return self._get_tool_documentation(arguments.get("tool_name"))

• mcp_azure_devops/server.py:857-862 (registration)

  The list_tools handler that registers and exposes all tools, including get_tool_documentation, via MCP protocol.

  @self.server.list_tools()
  async def list_tools() -> List[types.Tool]:
      """Return the list of available tools."""
      logger.info(f"Tools requested - returning {len(self.tools)} tools")
      self.tools_registered = True
      return self.tools
