The syntax for defining a class method for the user-contributed MTools package for classes and OO in Mathematica is:

MClass.method[arg_] := (* Use arg *);

Where Class is a user defined MTools class. The method itself can also accept an OptionsPattern[]:

MClass.method[arg_, OptionsPattern[]] := (* ... *);
But at the time of writing, no way is known of registering the Options[] specific to an MTools method. Dr Darren invites your help:
If you know how to achieve Options[] registration specific to an MTools method by all means do contact me and let me know how.

In any case, this is addressed in the Webel libraries for the Wolfram Language by the HelpO` class/method help registry package in combination with the Webel Options Association the MAll and MOptsSet classes, and encapsulated via the MOpt class.

[CONVENTION, MODELLING, NAMING]{STRICT} Webel: SysML4Mathematica: An OptionsPattern[] may be represented by an «M:OptionsPattern» SysMLv1 Block with «M:Opt» properties. An «M:Opt» property represents an Options[] Rule IMPLICITLY (an «M:Opt» does not use the Rule block modelling recipe).
