Set Shortlist Alert

set_shortlist_alert

Set a drift alert on a saved shortlist to receive webhook or email notifications when any site's percentile score drops below a threshold or falls significantly from its saved value, eliminating the need for manual polling.

Instructions

Set a DRIFT ALERT on a saved shortlist so you can stop polling and be notified when a site's national standing moves materially (Phase 5). Fires when any site in the shortlist has current percentile score < percentile_below OR score_delta_since_saved < delta_below (e.g. -8 = dropped 8 points vs when saved). Evaluated after each daily baseline refresh; delivers via webhook and/or email. This is the "wake me when it matters" loop for long-running siting campaigns. Scoped to your API key.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
notifyYesDelivery: {"webhook":"https://..."} and/or {"email":"you@co.com"} — at least one required
delta_belowNoFire if any site's score_delta_since_saved drops below this — pass a NEGATIVE number, e.g. -8 (dropped 8+ points since saved)
shortlist_nameNoThe shortlist to monitor (created via save_to_shortlist)
percentile_belowNoFire if any site's current percentile objective_score drops below this (e.g. 70)

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.

TDQS

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Beyond the annotations (readOnlyHint=false, idempotentHint=false, etc.), the description discloses when the alert fires, how it is evaluated (after each daily baseline refresh), how it delivers (webhook and/or email), and that it is scoped to the API key. No contradiction with the 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?

The description is front-loaded and compact, with the most important action and distinction in the first sentence. A small amount of redundancy exists between 'stop polling' and the 'wake me when it matters' use-case line, but every sentence still contributes useful context.

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 4-parameter alert-setting tool with an output schema, the description provides the full behavioral contract: trigger conditions, evaluation cadence, delivery mechanisms, scope, and intended use case. Nothing essential for the agent to select and invoke the tool 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?

The schema already documents all four parameters (100% coverage), so the baseline is 3. The description adds the key relationship between parameters — the OR condition between percentile_below and delta_below — and clarifies the saved-shortlist source, but it largely restates examples already in the schema.

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 object, 'Set a DRIFT ALERT on a saved shortlist,' and clarifies the monitoring scope ('national standing moves materially'). It also names the exact trigger conditions and the resource type (a saved shortlist), which distinguishes it from the sibling site/market alert tools.

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: the alert is for stopping polling, acting as a 'wake me when it matters' loop for long-running siting campaigns, and is scoped to a saved shortlist. It does not explicitly name set_site_alert or set_market_alert as alternatives or state when not to use them, 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.
