List of tools programmatically

[rockerBOO]

I want to query the MCP Server for a list of tools it is supporting, like what is given to the LLM about the tool. How would I do that without making a request to the MCP server externally maybe.

I want all the tools and descriptions to put into another tool to index them.

I have

func RangeContentTool(bridge interfaces.BridgeInterface) (mcp.Tool, server.ToolHandlerFunc)

so I could extract the mcp.Tool from there but I am already passing it into the MCP Server

mcpServer.AddTool(RangeContentTool(bridge))

There is

func (s *MCPServer) handleListTools(
	ctx context.Context,
	id any,
	request mcp.ListToolsRequest,
) (*mcp.ListToolsResult, *requestError) {

but the s.tools are not exposed and no function to get the list of them outside this handler.

Do I need to add a new expose for listing tools on the server that works like handleListTools?

I decided to keep track of my tools before adding them and then using it that way. There is also a "in-process client" I could use to access the MCP server programmatically but it seems a bit overkill to have another server running to access this list.
