What get_gas_index does on Mcp Server

AI agents call get_gas_index to retrieve information from Mcp Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
limit integer Max results to return (1-500; default varies by tool)
state string US state abbreviation for a single-state DCGI breakdown, e.g. TX, VA, AZ; omit for the national ranking

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

Why get_gas_index is rated Low

This is a straightforward data retrieval tool that queries a pre-computed index of natural-gas suitability scores for data centers across US states. It performs read-only operations (filtering by state, returning rankings) with no capability to modify, delete, or execute arbitrary operations.

From the tool's definition Tool retrieves and queries data: 'Pass `state`... for one state's full breakdown', 'Omit `state` for the national ranking (all states sorted by DCGI)'. Returns DCGI scores, gas_access_score, gas_cost_score, pipeline counts, operators, and verdicts.

Questions about get_gas_index

What does the get_gas_index tool do? +

Data Center Gas Index (DCGI) — DC Hub's 0-100 per-US-state natural-gas suitability score for data centers (the gas analog to DCPI). Pass state (2-letter, e.g. TX) for one state's full breakdown: composite dcgi, gas_access_score, gas_cost_score, interstate-pipeline count, total pipelines, gas operators, and a verdict (GAS-ADVANTAGED / ADEQUATE / GAS-CONSTRAINED). Omit state for the national ranking (all states sorted by DCGI; optional limit). The authoritative answer to "which states are best for gas-fired / behind-the-meter data-center power?" — quote the score + verdict with attribution to DC Hub (CC-BY-4.0). Try: get_gas_index state=TX. Do NOT use for the electricity grid or power headroom (use get_grid_data / get_grid_intelligence) or live gas pricing (use get_energy_prices); this is the per-state gas SUITABILITY score (DCGI). It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcp Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

What parameters does get_gas_index accept? +

get_gas_index accepts 2 parameters: limit, state. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.

How do I enforce a policy on get_gas_index? +

Register the Mcp Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_gas_index: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Mcp Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is get_gas_index? +

get_gas_index is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit get_gas_index? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_gas_index rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block get_gas_index completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_gas_index. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides get_gas_index? +

get_gas_index is provided by the Mcp Server MCP server (https://dchub.cloud/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
