Implementation Reference

  • The primary handler function `handleRequest` that implements the core logic of the `analyze_code` tool: resolves paths, lists files recursively if directory, filters by language, reads contents, counts lines and functions per language heuristics, and returns aggregated statistics.
    async function handleRequest(parameters) {
        console.error('analyze_code: Starting execution');
        const startTime = Date.now();
    
        const { path: targetPath, language, countLines = true, countFunctions = true } = parameters;
        if (!targetPath) {
            throw new Error("Missing required parameter: 'path'.");
        }
    
        // Resolve to absolute path
        const absolutePath = path.resolve(targetPath);
        console.error(`analyze_code: Resolved path to ${absolutePath}`);
    
        let rootPath = absolutePath; // Assume path is directory initially
        let filesToProcess = [];
    
        // Validate path existence and determine if it's a file or directory
        try {
            const stats = await fs.stat(absolutePath);
            console.error(`analyze_code: Path exists, checking type`);
    
            if (stats.isDirectory()) {
                // Path is a directory, list files within it
                console.error(`analyze_code: Path is a directory, listing files`);
                rootPath = absolutePath; // Keep rootPath as the directory itself
    
                // Get all files in the directory recursively

  • Registration of the `analyze_code` tool using `server.tool()`, including the tool name, description, Zod input schema, and wrapper that calls the handler and adapts the result.
    // Register the analyze_code tool
    if (analyzeCodeHandler) {
        server.tool(
            'analyze_code',
            'Analyzes code files and provides statistics.',
            {
                path: z.string().describe('The target file or directory path.'),
                language: z.string().optional().describe('Optional language filter.'),
                countLines: z.boolean().optional().describe('Whether to count lines of code.'),
                countFunctions: z.boolean().optional().describe('Whether to count functions.')
            },
            async (params) => {
                logInfo(`Executing analyze_code tool with params: ${JSON.stringify(params)}`);
                try {
                    const startTime = Date.now();
                    const result = await analyzeCodeHandler(params);
                    const executionTime = Date.now() - startTime;
                    logDebug(`analyze_code completed in ${executionTime}ms`);
                    return adaptToolResult(result);
                } catch (error) {
                    logError('Error in analyze_code tool:', error);
                    throw error;
                }
            }
        );
    }
  • Zod schema defining the input parameters for the `analyze_code` tool: path (required), language (optional), countLines and countFunctions (optional booleans).
    {
        path: z.string().describe('The target file or directory path.'),
        language: z.string().optional().describe('Optional language filter.'),
        countLines: z.boolean().optional().describe('Whether to count lines of code.'),
        countFunctions: z.boolean().optional().describe('Whether to count functions.')
    },
  • `countFunctionsInCode` helper: language-specific regex-based function counting (JS/TS arrow funcs/methods, Python def, Java methods).
    function countFunctionsInCode(code, fileExtension) {
        // This is a very simple implementation and won't catch all functions
        // A real implementation would use language-specific parsers
        let count = 0;
        
        // JavaScript/TypeScript
        if (['.js', '.jsx', '.ts', '.tsx', '.mjs'].includes(fileExtension.toLowerCase())) {
            // Count function declarations
            const functionMatches = code.match(/function\s+\w+\s*\(/g) || [];
            count += functionMatches.length;
            
            // Count arrow functions
            const arrowMatches = code.match(/\w+\s*=\s*\([^)]*\)\s*=>/g) || [];
            count += arrowMatches.length;
            
            // Count method definitions
            const methodMatches = code.match(/\w+\s*\([^)]*\)\s*{/g) || [];
            count += methodMatches.length;
        }
        // Python
        else if (['.py', '.pyw'].includes(fileExtension.toLowerCase())) {
            const functionMatches = code.match(/def\s+\w+\s*\(/g) || [];
            count += functionMatches.length;
        }
        // Java
        else if (['.java'].includes(fileExtension.toLowerCase())) {
            // This is a very simplified approach
            const methodMatches = code.match(/\w+\s+\w+\s*\([^)]*\)\s*{/g) || [];
            count += methodMatches.length;
        }
        
        return count;
    }
  • `listFilesRecursive` helper: recursively lists all files in a directory, returning relative paths.
    async function listFilesRecursive(dir, baseDir = dir, result = []) {
        const entries = await fs.readdir(dir, { withFileTypes: true });
        
        for (const entry of entries) {
            const fullPath = path.join(dir, entry.name);
            const relativePath = path.relative(baseDir, fullPath);
            
            if (entry.isDirectory()) {
                await listFilesRecursive(fullPath, baseDir, result);
            } else if (entry.isFile()) {
                result.push(relativePath);
            }
        }
        
        return result;
    }
