Save To Shortlist

save_to_shortlist

Save a site into a PERSISTENT, named shortlist that survives across conversations (Phase 5 statefulness). Snapshots the site's objectives + its current percentile objective_score, so you can re-score it later against the evolving national baseline. Use to build a durable siting shortlist across days/weeks; the list is scoped to your API key. Pair with get_shortlist to re-score + see drift. MINIMAL call: save_to_shortlist(shortlist_name="my-targets", site={site_ref, lat, lng, capacity_mw}) — objectives are optional. If you DID rank the site (analyze_site / rank_sites), pass those metric fields inside site and your objectives map too, and the re-scoring reuses them. Requires an API key so the list is private to you and survives to your next conversation: call claim_free_key first if you have none.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
siteYesSite object. MINIMAL form is enough: {site_ref, lat, lng, capacity_mw}. Richer is better — add any analyze_site metric fields (risk_resilience, fiber_connectivity, water score…) and those become what gets re-scored later.
notesNoOptional free-text note, e.g. "strong fiber, acceptable water"
objectivesNoOPTIONAL {field: signedWeight} map (+maximize/-minimize) if this site was ranked under explicit objectives — stored so re-scoring reuses the same criteria. Omit it and DC Hub weights the site's own metric fields equally.
shortlist_nameYesName of the shortlist, e.g. "Q3-2026-1GW-targets" — created if new. REQUIRED.

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.

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

The description discloses key behaviors beyond annotations: persistence across conversations, API-key privacy/scoping, snapshotting objectives and percentile score, optional reuse of ranked metrics, and the prerequisite of claim_free_key. None of this is present in the sparse annotations, and it directly informs correct invocation.

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 every sentence earns its place: purpose, behavioral guarantees, usage scenario, pairing, minimal call, optional enrichment, and auth prerequisite. The most important statefulness concept is front-loaded and the details flow logically.

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 stateful mutation tool with 4 parameters, an output schema, and minimal annotations, the description covers everything an agent needs to call it correctly: persistence, auth, required fields, optional fields, example call, and post-save workflow with get_shortlist. No significant gap remains.

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

Parameters5/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, but the description adds substantial value: it gives a MINIMAL call example with site={site_ref, lat, lng, capacity_mw}, explains that objectives are optional and what happens if omitted, and clarifies how richer metric fields get reused during re-scoring. This is far beyond the baseline schema descriptions.

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 opens with a specific verb and resource: 'Save a site into a PERSISTENT, named shortlist that survives across conversations.' It clearly distinguishes itself from plain saves by emphasizing persistence, API-key scoping, and re-scoring behavior, and it names get_shortlist as the complementary tool.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

It gives clear usage context: 'Use to build a durable siting shortlist across days/weeks' and explains the list is scoped to the API key. It also tells the agent to pair with get_shortlist for re-scoring, but it does not explicitly discuss when not to use it versus alternatives like save_site.

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

A3.8/5.0
Disambiguation1/5

With 85 tools, several families are heavily overlapping: semantic_search and search_intelligence are explicitly documented as the same retrieval with different call shapes, save_site and save_to_shortlist both persist sites, and list_saved_sites and get_shortlist both read saved sites. Additionally, site scoring is split across analyze_site, get_composite_site_score, score_facility, and rank_sites, making correct tool selection very difficult for an agent.

Naming Consistency3/5

All names are snake_case and mostly readable, but conventions are mixed: many use get_* (get_facility, get_grid_intelligence), others use verb phrases (analyze_site, compare_isos, rank_markets), and some are bare noun phrases (ai_capacity_index, hyperscaler_deals, grid_transition_radar, site_selection_canvas). The search family alone uses search, search_facilities, semantic_search, and search_intelligence with no consistent pattern.

Tool Count1/5

85 tools is an extreme count for any MCP server, far beyond the 3-15 well-scoped range and above the 50+ threshold described as an extreme mismatch. Even with a wide domain like data-center siting, this many tools overwhelms agent context and makes selection costly.

Completeness4/5

The domain surface is exceptionally broad: siting, grid, gas, fiber, water, climate, tax, permitting, deals, news, facilities, saved shortlists, alerts, webhooks, key management, and research dossiers are all covered with connected workflows. Minor gaps exist, such as no delete or update for saved sites and no pause/resume for standing intents, but these are workable rather than blocking.
