What it does

C Location is an agent skill from daxaur/openpaw. Search Apple Maps, find nearby places, and get directions using the goplaces CLI. Supports keyword searches, category filters (restaurants, coffee, gas), and turn-by-turn directions by driving, walking, or transit.

Its SKILL.md is about 390 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Personal Assistant Wizard for Claude Code — npx pawmode. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “/c-location”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Use natural language for location queries — goplaces handles geocoding automatically.
  2. For "nearby" searches, the current device location is used unless a starting point is specified.
  3. When providing directions, confirm origin and destination with the user if ambiguous.
  4. Present results as a numbered list when multiple places are returned.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a2562d1. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

C Location loads about 394 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 112 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~57
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~394

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

What This Skill Does

Queries Apple Maps via the goplaces CLI to search for places, find businesses nearby, and get directions between locations.

CLI Tool: goplaces

Common Commands
bash
# Search for a place by name or keyword
goplaces search "coffee shops near downtown Austin"

# Find nearby places by category
goplaces nearby "pizza"
goplaces nearby "gas station"

# Get directions between two locations
goplaces directions "Austin TX" "San Antonio TX"
goplaces directions --mode walking "Zilker Park" "South Congress Ave"

# Get details about a specific place
goplaces details "Barton Springs Pool, Austin"
Transport Modes
  • --mode driving (default)
  • --mode walking
  • --mode transit

Usage Guidelines

  1. Use natural language for location queries — goplaces handles geocoding automatically.
  2. For "nearby" searches, the current device location is used unless a starting point is specified.
  3. When providing directions, confirm origin and destination with the user if ambiguous.
  4. Present results as a numbered list when multiple places are returned.

Notes

  • Requires macOS with location services enabled for proximity searches.
  • Results are sourced from Apple Maps — coverage quality varies by region.
