#!/usr/bin/env python3 """Inject idatui's extra ida-pro-mcp tools into the installed server package. ida-pro-mcp lacks a few tools idatui needs. Rather than vendor/fork the server, we keep the tool source here and inject it (idempotently) into the installed ``api_types.py``. That module is imported by every worker (``python -m ida_pro_mcp.idalib_server``), so the tools register themselves via ``@tool`` on the shared ``MCP_SERVER`` — no server code is forked, and re-running this (spawn.sh does, on every start) re-applies it after a reinstall/upgrade. Injected tools: * ``del_type`` — delete a named local type (struct editor CRUD). * ``func_types`` — structured decompiler types for a function (prototype + local variables), so clients don't parse pseudocode text. * ``set_lvar_type`` — set a decompiler local variable's type; works on auto/ register vars too (the stock set_type only updates lvars that already have user-saved info). The block between the BEGIN/END markers is *replaced* on each run, so editing BODY here and restarting the supervisor updates the tools. Run with the *same* interpreter the server uses (the idalib-mcp entry point's ``/usr/bin/python``), so it patches the file the workers actually import. Changing a tool needs a supervisor restart so workers respawn.
