Implementation Reference
- src/airflow/connection.py:109-111 (handler)The core handler function that executes the deletion of a connection by calling the Airflow ConnectionApi.
async def delete_connection(conn_id: str) -> List[Union[types.TextContent, types.ImageContent, types.EmbeddedResource]]: response = connection_api.delete_connection(connection_id=conn_id) return [types.TextContent(type="text", text=str(response.to_dict()))] - src/airflow/connection.py:11-20 (registration)Registers the delete_connection tool (line 18) among other connection tools by including it in the list returned for MCP tool registration.
