Upgraded the MCP server from version 0.1.0-preview.1.25171.12 to 0.4.0-preview.2 to use the latest stable API. Changes: - Updated ModelContextProtocol package to 0.4.0-preview.2 - Migrated from [McpTool] to [McpServerTool] attributes - Migrated from [McpToolType] to [McpServerToolType] attributes - Changed tool registration from .WithTool<T>() to .WithToolsFromAssembly() - Updated all test assertions to use new attribute types All 15 tests passing. Tools now use snake_case naming convention: - ListAvailableGames → list_available_games - CreateGameAsync → create_game - AddBotAsync → add_bot - StartGameAsync → start_game 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <[email protected]>
Added new GetPreviousGamesAsync tool that fetches historical games via the open
HTTP API endpoint /{gametype}/previousgames.
Changes:
- Updated DecksterClientWrapper to include HttpClient for direct API calls
- Added GetPreviousGamesAsync method that calls previousgames endpoint
- Added new MCP tool get_previous_games with description
- Updated all tests to match new constructor signature
- Added 3 new tests (total: 18 tests passing)
The tool accepts a gameType parameter and returns JSON data of all historical
games for that game type. Returns empty array [] when using InMemory repository.
Example usage via MCP:
```json
{
"method": "tools/call",
"params": {
"name": "get_previous_games",
"arguments": {"gameType": "CrazyEights"}
}
}
```
