Implementation Reference

src/tools/interceptors.ts:491-511 (handler)

The handler implementation for the 'interceptor_kill' MCP tool, which retrieves process output from the terminal interceptor and then deactivates the process.

async ({ target_id }) => {
  try {
    // Get output before killing
    const terminal = interceptorManager.get("terminal") as TerminalInterceptor | undefined;
    const output = terminal?.getProcessOutput(target_id);

    await interceptorManager.deactivate("terminal", target_id);
    return {
      content: [{
        type: "text",
        text: JSON.stringify({
          status: "success",
          message: `Process ${target_id} killed.`,
          output: output ? {
            stdout: output.stdout.slice(-2048),
            stderr: output.stderr.slice(-2048),
            exitCode: output.exitCode,
          } : null,
        }),
      }],
    };

src/tools/interceptors.ts:485-490 (registration)
