What get_interconnection_queue does on Mcp Server
AI agents call get_interconnection_queue 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.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
iso | string | — | ISO/RTO grid region to drill into: ERCOT, PJM, MISO, CAISO, SPP, NYISO, ISONE; omit for the all-ISO snapshot |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why get_interconnection_queue is rated Low
This tool performs data retrieval only—it fetches current interconnection queue statistics from ISO public sources and returns structured metrics. There are no side effects, no data modification, no code execution, and no destructive operations.
From the tool's definition Tool returns a 'snapshot' of interconnection queue data with metrics like 'queued_load_total_gw' and 'queued_load_data_center_gw'. It retrieves and queries publicly available ISO interconnection queue information without modifying data.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs get_interconnection_queue safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Mcp Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For get_interconnection_queue, this is the rule to start with:
get_interconnection_queue is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Mcp Server, apply this rule, and every get_interconnection_queue call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about get_interconnection_queue
ISO interconnection queue snapshot: total queued GENERATION capacity (queued_load_total_gw, GW) per ISO from each ISO's public queue. For ERCOT it ALSO returns the large-load (data-center-driven) interconnection queue in queued_load_data_center_gw — >225 GW in process / ~9 GW approved-to-energize (ERCOT's published Q1-2026 figure; ERCOT is the only ISO that publishes a comparable large-load feed, so other ISOs' data_center_gw is null), with provenance in top_subregions. Sources: ERCOT GIS + Large Load Integration, PJM/MISO/SPP/CAISO/NYISO/ISO-NE public queues. Pass iso=ERCOT (or any of 7) to drill down. Use for queue-depth site-selection and AI/data-center-load saturation intel (the ERCOT 225 GW number is the headline large-load figure no other source surfaces machine-readably). Do NOT use for a single-site time-to-power read (use get_grid_intelligence) or forward-looking emergence (use grid_transition_radar); this is the ISO-level queue snapshot. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Mcp Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
get_interconnection_queue accepts 1 parameter: iso. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the Mcp Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_interconnection_queue: 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.
get_interconnection_queue is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the get_interconnection_queue 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.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for get_interconnection_queue. 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.
get_interconnection_queue 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.
