}
 
class MyTool extends MCPTool<MyToolInput> {
  name = "my_tool";
  description = "Describes what your tool does";
 
  schema = {
    message: {
      type: z.string(),
      description: "Description of this input parameter",
    },
  };
 
  async execute(input: MyToolInput) {
    // Your tool logic here
    return `Processed: ${input.message}`;
  }
}
 
export default MyTool;
