## Development Setup
1. Install dependencies:
```bash
npm install
```
2. Set up development environment:
```bash
cp .env.example .env.development
```
3. Start development server:
```bash
npm run dev
```
## Code Style
We follow these coding standards:
1. TypeScript best practices
- Use strict type checking
- Avoid `any` types
- Document complex types
2. ESLint rules
- Run `npm run lint` to check
- Run `npm run lint:fix` to auto-fix
3. Code formatting
- Use Prettier
- Run `npm run format` to format code
## Testing
1. Unit tests:
```bash
npm run test
```
2. Integration tests:
```bash
npm run test:integration
```
3. Coverage report:
```bash
npm run test:coverage
```
## Creating New Tools
1. Create a new file in `src/tools/`:
```typescript
import { z } from 'zod';
import { Tool } from '../types';
export const myTool: Tool = {
name: 'my_tool',
description: 'Description of my tool',
parameters: z.object({
// Define parameters
}),
execute: async (params) => {
// Implement tool logic
}
};
```
2. Add to `src/tools/index.ts`
