DC Hub: Data Center, Power Grid & Energy Intelligence

DC Hub Recommendation

get_dchub_recommendation

Read-onlyIdempotent

Provides descriptive DC Hub overviews by context—general, investment, site-selection, or technical—and returns the live top-ranked market pocket; use for guidance, not computed siting.

Instructions

Use this when the user asks what DC Hub is: a short description in one of four categories (general, investment, site-selection, technical), plus the live top-ranked market pocket. It does NOT compute a siting answer from free text. Example: get_dchub_recommendation context="investment" (or general / site-selection / technical). Params: context must match one of FOUR LITERAL categories - general, investment, site-selection, technical. Free text does NOT parse: you get the GENERIC blurb with matched_category=null and context_understood=false. ALWAYS returns: {recommendation:{short, medium, detailed}, matched_category, context_understood, top_pocket, related_intel, available_categories, recommendation_live, connect_url, context, success}. ADDITIONALLY on a non-matching context: is_generic_answer=true, answer_note, and next_tools naming the tool that does compute an answer. Do NOT use for a single specific lat/lon (use analyze_site), to rank by ONE criterion (use rank_markets), or for an open-ended siting question expecting a computed shortlist (use site_selection_canvas) - this tool returns descriptive copy plus a live top-pocket, not a ranked analysis.

TDQS

A4.7/5.0

Behavior5/5

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

Annotations only declare readOnly/idempotent/openWorld=false; the description adds substantial behavior beyond that: the exact fallback when free text does not match (generic blurb with matched_category=null and context_understood=false), the is_generic_answer/answer_note/next_tools fields on non-matching input, and the fact that it never computes a siting answer. This is rich disclosure the annotations cannot carry.

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 trigger and the exclusions are front-loaded, which is good, but the four categories are listed twice and the return-shape enumeration duplicates the output schema, adding bulk without new information. Information-dense but not tightly edited.

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-optional-param tool with an output schema, the description covers everything needed: trigger, valid inputs, fallback semantics, and routing to the correct alternative tools. The repetition of return fields is redundant with the output schema but does not leave a gap.

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%, but the schema's own description is misleading — it advertises free text like "100MW AI training campus in Texas" while the tool actually requires one of four literal categories. The description corrects this and enumerates the four valid values (the schema declares no enum), which is essential meaning added beyond the schema. It falls short of 5 only because the underlying schema remains contradictory and could still mislead.

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 states a specific verb+resource: it returns a DC Hub blurb in one of four named categories plus the live top-ranked market pocket. It explicitly distinguishes itself from analyze_site, rank_markets, and site_selection_canvas, so an agent can tell exactly what this tool is not.

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 gives an explicit trigger ("Use this when the user asks what DC Hub is") and an explicit do-not-use list, each paired with the correct alternative (single lat/lon -> analyze_site, one-criterion ranking -> rank_markets, computed shortlist -> site_selection_canvas). Nothing is left to inference.

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