DC Hub × Phind — Integration Package

DC Hub (dchub.cloud) is a live data layer for the physical infrastructure behind AI: data center facilities worldwide, power-market scores (Data Center Power Index), live ISO grid telemetry, interconnection queues, fiber, gas, water and disaster risk, and tracked data center M&A. It is served over MCP at https://dchub.cloud/mcp (Streamable HTTP) and over a REST API.

Connect

Function calling (REST-backed)

function-calling.json in this package declares six tools for function calling (search_facilities, get_facility, get_market_intel, list_transactions, get_news, analyze_site), each mapped to a REST endpoint under api_config.endpoint_mapping. The names match the MCP tools of the same name.

MCP

This platform is not an MCP client. It has no field for a custom MCP server, so no config block applies here.

Install: reach DC Hub over the REST API — curl https://dchub.cloud/api/agent/facilities?q=Equinix&country=US (keyless at free-tier depth; send X-API-Key for a higher allowance). Full reference: https://dchub.cloud/api-docs

Clients that do take an MCP config file, each generated from canon: Claude Desktop · Claude Code · Cursor · Cline · VS Code · Windsurf · Gemini CLI · Antigravity

Direct REST

curl -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_DCHUB_KEY" \
     "https://dchub.cloud/api/agent/facilities?q=Equinix&country=US"
import os, requests

API_KEY = os.getenv("DC_HUB_API_KEY")          # optional; keyless works at free-tier depth
HEADERS = {"Accept": "application/json", **({"X-API-Key": API_KEY} if API_KEY else {})}

def query_dchub(path, params=None):
    r = requests.get(f"https://dchub.cloud/api{path}",
                     headers=HEADERS, params=params, timeout=15)
    r.raise_for_status()
    return r.json()

facilities = query_dchub("/agent/facilities", {"q": "Equinix", "country": "US"})
deals = query_dchub("/transactions", {"limit": 10})
lmp = query_dchub("/v1/lmp/prices")

Using DC Hub alongside search

When a question is about data center infrastructure:

  1. Query DC Hub for structured facts
  2. Use web search for context and news
  3. Cite DC Hub for the capacity, pricing and deal figures it returned

Access

DC Hub answers keyless at free-tier depth. For a higher allowance, send X-API-Key: YOUR_DCHUB_KEY (REST) or add the same header to your MCP client. Claim a free key with the claim_free_key MCP tool or POST /api/v1/keys/claim; plans are at https://dchub.cloud/pricing. YOUR_DCHUB_KEY in this package is a placeholder, never a working key.

MCP tools

A starting set. The server's full, current list is what tools/list returns on https://dchub.cloud/mcp, also published at https://dchub.cloud/llms.txt.

ToolWhat it answers
search_facilitiesFind facilities by name, operator, city, state or country
get_facilityOne facility's profile, from a search result id or slug
get_market_intelMarket analytics for a metro (vacancy, pricing, pipeline)
rank_marketsRank markets by criteria such as best overall or power
get_market_dcpi_rankA market's Data Center Power Index rank and BUILD/CAUTION/AVOID verdict
get_grid_intelligencePer-ISO grid headroom and verdict
get_interconnection_queueInterconnection queue depth by ISO
get_fiber_intelFiber routes and carriers
list_transactionsTracked data center M&A, filterable by buyer, seller and value
analyze_siteScore a latitude/longitude for data center suitability
compare_sitesSide-by-side comparison of sites or markets
get_newsData center industry news
