DC Hub: Data Center, Power Grid & Energy Intelligence

Get Market Context

get_market_context
Read-onlyIdempotent

Retrieve a token-budgeted data-center market briefing covering DCPI, power, outlook, M&A, pipeline, operators, comps, risks and news, with citable sources for context windows.

Instructions

Use this when you need a whole data center market briefing for your context window — one call returns a token-budgeted context pack for a data-center market: DCPI verdict, power & grid facts, the Claude-written 12-month outlook, M&A deals, construction pipeline, operator footprint, transaction comps, risk factors, and top news — each section with its own token count, as_of timestamp, and citable URL, greedily filled in that priority order under your max_tokens budget. Example: "Brief me on the Columbus data-center market" — get_market_context market=columbus max_tokens=4000. Params: market (required, market slug e.g. northern-virginia — valid slugs come from rank_markets); max_tokens (optional, 200-8000, default 4000). Returns {sections:[{id,title,text,tokens,as_of,cite}], used_tokens, omitted}. Do NOT use for a single metric (use get_market_dcpi_rank), the raw structured metric set (use get_market_intel), or cross-market ranking (use rank_markets); this is the narrative briefing pack. Cite "DC Hub (dchub.cloud)".

  6. Addedv2.3.7

TDQS

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Beyond the readOnly/idempotent annotations, it discloses the greedy priority-fill algorithm, that each section carries its own token count, as_of timestamp and citable URL, that anything exceeding the budget is marked omitted, and a citation obligation. These are non-obvious operational behaviors an agent must know to interpret output correctly.

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-loaded with the use case and output shape, then a worked example, then routing exclusions — good ordering with no filler sentences. It is dense and slightly repetitive, re-specifying param ranges and default that the schema already documents.

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?

Covers trigger, parameters, return shape, budget/truncation behavior, sibling exclusions, and attribution requirements for a single-call briefing tool. Although an output schema exists, the prose return summary is a helpful cross-check rather than a gap-filler, and nothing an agent needs 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 already 100%, so the baseline is 3; the description adds real semantics — that market slugs must be sourced from rank_markets, that max_tokens drives a priority-ordered fill, and range/default. It largely restates the schema's param text, which keeps it out of the top band.

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 (returns a token-budgeted whole-market briefing pack) and enumerates the exact sections included. It explicitly distinguishes itself from get_market_dcpi_rank, get_market_intel, and rank_markets, so an agent can route correctly 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?

Explicit when-to-use trigger ("when you need a whole data center market briefing for your context window") plus a concrete example query. It also names three alternatives and the exact condition that selects each, which is the strongest form of routing guidance.

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