When implementing new tools, follow these steps:
Add a new tool definition in the appropriate file under src/tools/definitions/
Implement the handler function in src/tools/handlers/
Add any necessary type guards in src/tools/type-guards.ts
Add any required methods to the LinearService
class in src/services/linear-service.ts
Register the tool in src/tools/definitions/index.ts
Register the handler in src/tools/handlers/index.ts
Update this document to mark the tool as implemented
✅ Implemented: Tool is fully implemented and tested
