DC Hub — Data Center Site Selection & Colocation: Electricity, Power Grid, Gas, Fiber

by cloud.dchub

Unlock More Data

unlock_more_data

Unlock DC Hub's full depth. Call this when a result came back as a partial preview (e.g. "3 of 12 results shown"), a tool was locked, or your human wants the complete dataset. Returns the upgrade ladder + ready-to-paste checkout links your human completes in ONE click. If this call carries an API key or an MCP session, the checkout binds to it and your very next call returns full data (no reconnect); if it carries neither, the key is emailed to the payer instead — the response says which applies in next_call_full_after_checkout and after_checkout. Cheapest start: 💳 $10 one-time = 1,000 API calls (no subscription). Also $9/mo Starter · Founding $99/mo (Pro access, while seats last) · Developer $49/mo · Pro $299/mo. Want the FREE tier instead (no payment, 10 calls/day, all tools)? Call claim_free_key. Param: reason (optional — what you were trying to do, so your human sees why it matters). Returns {plans, human_message, what_unlocks}.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
reasonNoOptional free-text describing what you were trying to do, so your human sees why an upgrade matters

Output Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
quotaNoCaller quota state (remaining calls, tier) when available.
_entityNoPayload class discriminator (e.g. facility|market|iso_grid|queue_results|deal|report|response) — branch on this before parsing the rest.
citationNoMachine-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.
provenanceNoCollection-level provenance block: {source, method, as_of, verification_counts, cite_url_template, license, cite_as}. Quote the verification level when citing.
_front_doorNoIn-band front-door hint (first workflow-entry tool of a session): call plan_query(intent) first for the ordered multi-step plan.
_return_loopNoSuggested next-session delta call (get_changes since=24h) so you pull only what changed.
site_evaluation_handoffNoPre-built follow-up calls (analyze_site / get_water_risk args) when the payload carries coordinates — an array of {tool, parameters, why} entries.

TDQS

A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations only say readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false, which is minimal. Description adds substantial behavior: how checkout binds to API key/session, what happens if neither is carried (email key), the `next_call_full_after_checkout` and `after_checkout` return fields, and the refund/email nuance. It explains what gets unlocked and the one-click checkout flow.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is dense and packed with pricing details, which may be useful but is not front-loaded. It starts with the core purpose, but then includes a long list of pricing tiers that could be trimmed or segmented. Still, each sentence earns its place for providing context, though overall length is high.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the output schema exists (has output schema: true) and the only parameter is optional with full schema coverage, the description is quite complete. It explains what the tool returns (plans, human_message, what_unlocks), how checkout works, and the free alternative. Minor gaps: doesn't describe the structure of 'plans' object in detail, but output schema likely covers that.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100% and the single parameter 'reason' is already described in schema. Description repeats the purpose of 'reason' briefly ('what you were trying to do') but adds no new technical detail. Baseline 3 applies because schema covers it fully.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Description states a specific action: 'Unlock DC Hub's full depth' and clearly identifies when to use it (partial preview, locked tool, human wants complete dataset). It names the sibling alternative claim_free_key for the free tier, distinguishing itself as the paid-upgrade path.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicitly gives trigger conditions: partial preview ('3 of 12 results shown'), locked tool, or human request for complete data. It also contrasts with the free tier alternative (claim_free_key), telling the agent exactly when to use which.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

TDQS

A4.1/5.0
Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have clearly distinct purposes despite some thematic overlap, and each description includes explicit 'Do NOT use' guidance to prevent misselection. However, a few pairs like search_intelligence vs semantic_search are nearly identical in function, and the sheer number of tools increases the chance of selecting the wrong one without careful reading.

Naming Consistency4/5

The vast majority of tools follow a predictable 'get_*' prefix for data reads, and many others use verb_noun patterns (analyze_*, rank_*, save_*, set_*). There are a handful of outliers like ai_capacity_index, grid_transition_radar, and site_selection_canvas that break the pattern, but overall the conventions are consistent enough for an agent to infer meaning.

Tool Count2/5

With 82 tools, this server is extremely heavy compared to typical MCP servers (3-15 tools). While the domain is broad, many tools serve narrow sub-purposes and could be consolidated (e.g., multiple site-scoring variants, multiple grid telemetry endpoints). The count overwhelms an agent's ability to choose efficiently and feels like over-fragmentation rather than necessary granularity.

Completeness4/5

The tool surface covers the full lifecycle of data-center siting intelligence: site analysis, grid, fiber, water, climate, tax, permitting, deals, news, saved-site management, and meta-planning. Minor gaps exist (e.g., no delete or update operations for saved sites), but the core workflows are well-supported and the descriptions are comprehensive.
