DC Hub

Save Site

save_site

NEEDS A KEY (free): this WRITES to your account, so a keyless call returns auth_required — call claim_free_key FIRST (one step, no email) if you have none. Save a candidate data-center site to your DC Hub account to track it across sessions. Give lat + lon (plus optional name, state, market, target_mw, notes). Returns the saved site id. Pass market and DC Hub snapshots the site's DCPI baseline at save time, so every later list_saved_sites / get_changes shows how ITS score and verdict moved since you saved it. Builds a persistent shortlist an agent can revisit + monitor — after saving, pass the returned id to set_site_alert so DC Hub emails you when that site’s DCPI/capacity/nearby-facilities move (no re-checking). Answers "remember this parcel for me", "keep this candidate so I can come back to it next session". Try: save_site lat=39.04 lon=-77.48 name="Ashburn parcel" market=northern-virginia target_mw=100. Do NOT use to read back the shortlist (use list_saved_sites), download it (use export_dataset), or score a site (use score_facility); this WRITES one site to your account.

TDQS

A4.8/5.0

Behavior5/5

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

Annotations declare the safety profile (readOnlyHint=false, destructiveHint=false, idempotentHint=false), but the description adds what annotations cannot: a keyless call returns auth_required, the tool returns the saved site id, and passing `market` snapshots the DCPI baseline so later get_changes reflects movement. This is substantive side-effect disclosure beyond structured fields.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

Front-loads the blocking auth requirement before anything else, which is the right ordering. It is on the long side and repeats the 'this WRITES' claim twice, but every sentence carries routing, prerequisite, or side-effect information.

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?

An output schema exists, so return values needn't be detailed, and the description still names the returned id and the downstream chain (set_site_alert, list_saved_sites, get_changes). For a zero-required-param write tool with 10 params and a free-key gate, nothing an agent needs to call it correctly is missing.

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%, so the schema documents all ten parameters including the lat/lon aliases. The description adds meaning the schema does not: that `market` triggers a DCPI-baseline snapshot at save time and that name/state/market/target_mw/notes are optional. Small bonus over the baseline of 3.

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?

States a specific verb and resource ('Save a candidate data-center site to your DC Hub account') and immediately names the sibling tools it is NOT (list_saved_sites, export_dataset, score_facility). An agent can distinguish this from save_to_shortlist / get_shortlist style siblings without opening any schema.

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?

Gives an explicit precondition (call claim_free_key first, one step, no email), concrete usage intents ('remember this parcel', 'keep this candidate for next session'), and negative routing to three named alternatives. When-to-use and when-not-to-use are both spelled out.

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