This PR adds label management tools using a consolidated approach with GraphQL-only operations.
Resolves #312
Summary
Following the tool consolidation pattern from #1172, this PR introduces three multi-functional label management tools:
get_label
- Retrieves a specific label by name from a repositorylist_label
- Lists labels from a repository OR an issue (usesissue_number
parameter to switch context)write_label
- Unified write operations withmethod
parameter:create
- Create a new label (requiresname
,color
)update
- Update existing label (requiresname
, at least one ofnew_name
/color
/description
)delete
- Delete a label (requiresname
)Design Philosophy
We're moving toward consolidated, multi-functional tools that use method parameters to handle related operations, rather than creating separate tools for each action. This approach:
