rank_markets

Tool of cloud.dchub/mcp-server

Use when a user wants "the top N markets for X" — one ranked list across the 300+ market set rather than N separate get_market_intel calls. Example: "What are the 10 fastest-growing US markets with at least 100MW of existing capacity?" — rank_markets criteria=fastest_growing region=us limit=10 min_capacity_mw=100. Params: criteria one of "cheapest_power" | "most_capacity" | "most_operators" | "fastest_growing" | "best_overall" (default best_overall) | "ai_ready"; region one of "global" | "us" | "canada" | "eu" | "apac" | "americas" (default us); limit 1-50 (default 10); min_capacity_mw filter floor (e.g. 100). ★ criteria="ai_ready" ranks by DCPI BUILDABILITY (excess-power + time-to-power + BUILD/CAUTION/AVOID verdict) — where NEW AI-campus load can actually LAND — NOT by installed build-out (the other five criteria). Use ai_ready for AI/GPU/hyperscale campus siting: the most-built-out markets are frequently AVOID for new load, so a build-out ranking mis-answers "where do I put a 200MW AI campus". Returns: {criteria, region, result_count, results:[{rank, metro_slug, market, city, state, country, score, value, total_mw, facility_count, operator_count, url}], data_source, methodology}. To drill into a ranked market, feed results[].metro_slug into get_market_dcpi_rank. Do NOT use for a deep read on ONE market (use get_market_intel) or for scoring a specific lat/lon (use analyze_site).
