Adding a New Tool

To add a new tool to the MCP server, follow these steps:

Add a new API function in src/mcp_server_akshare/api.py:

async def fetch_new_data_function(param1: str, param2: str = "default") -> List[Dict[str, Any]]:
    """
    Fetch new data type.
    
    Args:
        param1: Description of param1
        param2: Description of param2
    """
    try:
        df = ak.akshare_function_name(param1=param1, param2=param2)
        return dataframe_to_dict(df)
    except Exception as e:
        logger.error(f"Error fetching new data: {e}")
        raise

Add the new tool to the enum in src/mcp_server_akshare/server.py:

class AKShareTools(str, Enum):
    # Existing tools...
    NEW_TOOL_NAME = "new_tool_name"

Import the new function in src/mcp_server_akshare/server.py:

from .api import (
    # Existing imports...
    fetch_new_data_function,
)

Add the tool definition to the handle_list_tools() function:

types.Tool(
    name=AKShareTools.NEW_TOOL_NAME.value,
    description="Description of the new tool",
    inputSchema={
        "type": "object",
        "properties": {
            "param1": {"type": "string", "description": "Description of param1"},
            "param2": {"type": "string", "description": "Description of param2"},
        },
        "required": ["param1"],  # List required parameters
    },
),

Add the tool handler in the handle_call_tool() function:

case AKShareTools.NEW_TOOL_NAME.value:
    param1 = arguments.get("param1")
    if not param1:
        raise ValueError("Missing required argument: param1")
    
    param2 = arguments.get("param2", "default")
    
    result = await fetch_new_data_function(
        param1=param1,
        param2=param2,
    )

Test the new tool by running the server and making a request to the new tool.
