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

Export Dataset

export_dataset
Read-onlyIdempotent

Use when a user wants to pull their saved DC Hub shortlist OUT of the platform for offline analysis, a spreadsheet, or ingestion into another tool (PRO). Example: "Export my saved sites as GeoJSON for QGIS." — export_dataset format=geojson. Params: format ("csv" default, or "geojson"). Returns: the full file contents as text — CSV rows or a GeoJSON FeatureCollection of your saved sites with DCPI score, target MW, market, coordinates, and notes. Do NOT use to list sites in-chat (use list_saved_sites) or to save a new one (use save_site); this is the bulk-download path.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
formatNoOutput file format: "csv" (default) or "geojson" (for GIS tools like QGIS)

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.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint, so the description is not required to restate safety. It adds value by disclosing the exact return behavior: full file contents as text, with CSV rows or a GeoJSON FeatureCollection including specific fields. This goes beyond the annotations without contradicting them.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

The description is dense but well-organized: usage trigger, example, parameters, return format, and exclusions. Every sentence carries useful information and is front-loaded with the most important routing signal.

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

Completeness5/5

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

For a single-parameter export tool with rich annotations and an output schema, this description covers purpose, usage, format semantics, return contents, and exclusions. Nothing critical is missing for an agent to select and invoke the tool correctly.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema coverage is 100% and already documents format with csv default and geojson for GIS tools. The description reinforces this with an example and clarifies what each format returns in practice, providing context beyond parameter names and types.

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?

The description uses a specific verb ('export') with a clear resource ('saved DC Hub shortlist') and explicitly contrasts itself with list_saved_sites and save_site. The example invocation makes the tool's role unmistakable.

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?

It explicitly states when to use the tool (offline analysis, spreadsheet, ingestion into another tool) and when not to use it (listing in-chat or saving a new site), naming the alternatives list_saved_sites and save_site. This gives an agent unambiguous routing guidance.

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

A4.1/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Multiple tools occupy nearly identical semantic space: search/search_facilities/search_intelligence/semantic_search all retrieve data, and analyze_site/compare_sites/score_facility/get_composite_site_score/rank_sites all score or rank locations. Despite extensive disambiguation in the descriptions, the boundaries are subtle enough that an agent will likely misroute queries. Account and meta tools (claim_free_key, bind_email, unlock_more_data, subscribe_digest, recover_my_key, execute_plan, plan_query, discover_tools) add further selection noise.

Naming Consistency4/5

The vast majority of tools follow a clear snake_case verb_noun convention (get_*, search_*, list_*, set_*, save_*, compare_*, analyze_*, rank_*, plan_*). A few noun-phrase names break the pattern (deal_autopsy, hyperscaler_deals, grid_transition_radar, site_selection_canvas, standing_intent, ai_capacity_index), but these are still readable and discoverable.

Tool Count1/5

83 tools is an extreme count for any server, far beyond the 25+ threshold that already signals bloat. The domain is broad, but the catalog is inflated by overlapping variants, multiple meta-tools (execute_plan, plan_query, discover_tools, get_agent_registry, get_backup_status, summarize_for_citation), and account/upgrade plumbing (claim_free_key, bind_email, recover_my_key, unlock_more_data, subscribe_digest). This imposes heavy context and selection costs on agents.

Completeness5/5

The data-center siting domain is covered exhaustively: single-site scoring, market ranking, grid/gas/fiber/water/climate/disaster/tax/permitting intelligence, interconnection queues, construction pipeline, deals/news, saved-site monitoring, alerts, research dossiers, and citation support. Every workflow has a continuation path, so agents will not hit dead ends.
