DC Hub: Data Center, Power Grid & Energy Intelligence

Recover My Key

recover_my_key

Email a lost DC Hub key to the bound email address and return a neutral confirmation without exposing the key.

Instructions

Use this when the user lost their DC Hub key. Pass your human's email and DC Hub re-sends any key tied to that address to that inbox. It NEVER returns the key over the wire (it emails the bound address), and the confirmation is the same whether or not a key exists (enumeration-safe), so no key is leaked to a caller. Param: email (required). Returns DC Hub's neutral confirmation.

Input Schema

Name	Required	Description	Default
`email`	Yes	Your human's email address that a lost key was bound to (required) — the key is re-sent to that inbox, never returned over the wire

Output Schema

Name	Required	Description	Default
No arguments

Addedv2.3.0Jun 19, 2026

TDQS

A4.4/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

Goes well beyond the annotations by disclosing the side effect (an email is sent to the bound address), the security property (key is never returned over the wire), and enumeration safety (identical confirmation regardless of key existence). It omits rate-limit/repeat behavior, which matters given idempotentHint=false, so not a 5. No contradiction with annotations.

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 usage trigger, then behavior, then a param/return note – efficient ordering. The trailing 'Param: email (required). Returns DC Hub's neutral confirmation.' slightly duplicates the schema and output schema, keeping it from a perfect score.

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 one-parameter, fully-described tool with an output schema and existing annotations, the description covers trigger, side effects, security caveats, and outcome. Nothing an agent needs in order 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 single email parameter is already documented; the description largely restates it. It does add one useful semantic not in the schema: because the confirmation is enumeration-safe, any address can be passed even if no key exists, which shapes how the agent should call it.

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?

Specific verb + resource: re-sends a lost DC Hub key to the bound email address. It is clearly distinguishable from siblings like bind_email and claim_free_key, and an agent can tell what happens without opening the schema.

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?

The first sentence gives an explicit trigger ('Use this when the user lost their DC Hub key'), which is exactly the condition an agent needs. It doesn't name alternatives or exclusions (e.g., use bind_email when no key was ever bound), so it falls short of a 5.

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