◈ Add DC Hub to Claude Desktop

Live data-center, power, grid and fiber intelligence, cited and machine-readable, inside Claude Desktop. Two routes: the config block below (a local launcher), or the connector URL.

Or paste this in Claude Desktop → Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector
https://dchub.cloud/mcp?via=claude-desktop

An email is optional: it ties the key to you, so we can re-send it if you lose it, and we email a weekly summary of what your key looked up (only in weeks it is used; unsubscribe anytime).
Or copy the URL as it is: it works with no account, at the free daily limit.
Why bother: A key raises your daily limit and gives you a consistent identity across sessions, so DC Hub can tell you what changed in the markets you have been watching instead of meeting you fresh each time.

Where it goes in Claude Desktop

claude_desktop_config.json

  1. Quit Claude Desktop.
  2. Open ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS, or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json on Windows. Create the file if it is not there.
  3. Add the block below (merge it into an existing mcpServers if you have one).
  4. Reopen Claude Desktop. DC Hub appears in the tools menu.

Config-file route

claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dchub": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "dchub-mcp-server"],
      "env": { "DCHUB_API_KEY": "" }
    }
  }
}
Worth knowing. claude_desktop_config.json runs local (stdio) servers only, so a url entry there is not a valid server and Claude Desktop can drop it. The block above runs the dchub-mcp-server launcher (needs Node 18+), which connects Claude Desktop to the hosted server; put your key in DCHUB_API_KEY, or leave it empty for previews. For the hosted URL instead, use Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector and paste the URL above. This is a DIFFERENT surface from Claude.ai in the browser — for that one use /install/claude.
