Get Market Context
get_market_contextUse when an agent needs a WHOLE-market briefing it can drop straight into its context window — one call returns a token-budgeted context pack for a data-center market: DCPI verdict, power & grid facts, the Claude-written 12-month outlook, M&A deals, construction pipeline, operator footprint, transaction comps, risk factors, and top news — each section with its own token count, as_of timestamp, and citable URL, greedily filled in that priority order under your max_tokens budget. Example: "Brief me on the Columbus data-center market" — get_market_context market=columbus max_tokens=4000. Params: market (required, market slug e.g. northern-virginia — valid slugs come from rank_markets); max_tokens (optional, 200-8000, default 4000). Returns {sections:[{id,title,text,tokens,as_of,cite}], used_tokens, omitted}. Do NOT use for a single metric (use get_market_dcpi_rank), the raw structured metric set (use get_market_intel), or cross-market ranking (use rank_markets); this is the narrative briefing pack. Cite "DC Hub (dchub.cloud)".
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| market | Yes | Market slug (required), e.g. northern-virginia, dallas, phoenix — valid slugs come from rank_markets / get_market_dcpi_rank | |
| max_tokens | No | Token budget for the pack, 200-8000 (default 4000); sections are filled in priority order until the budget is spent |
Output Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| quota | No | Caller quota state (remaining calls, tier) when available. | |
| _entity | No | Payload class discriminator (e.g. facility|market|iso_grid|queue_results|deal|report|response) — branch on this before parsing the rest. | |
| citation | No | Machine-readable citation: how to attribute DC Hub (dchub.cloud) for this payload. Normally an OBJECT {source, url, license, cite_as, retrieved_at}; a bare string is accepted and carries the attribution line itself. | |
| provenance | No | Collection-level provenance block: {source, method, as_of, verification_counts, cite_url_template, license, cite_as}. Quote the verification level when citing. | |
| _front_door | No | In-band front-door hint (first workflow-entry tool of a session): call plan_query(intent) first for the ordered multi-step plan. | |
| _return_loop | No | Suggested next-session delta call (get_changes since=24h) so you pull only what changed. | |
| site_evaluation_handoff | No | Pre-built follow-up calls (analyze_site / get_water_risk args) when the payload carries coordinates — an array of {tool, parameters, why} entries. |
