What it does

Maplibre Pmtiles Patterns is an agent skill from maplibre/maplibre-agent-skills. Serverless vector and raster tiles with PMTiles for MapLibre GL JS — single-file format, HTTP range requests, hosting on S3/R2/GitHub Pages, generating with Planetiler or tippecanoe, and the pmtiles protocol. Use when you need no tile server or want to host tiles from static storage.

Its SKILL.md is about 4.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering File uploads and storage and Serverless. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: Community-maintained agent skills for MapLibre GL JS — helping AI coding assistants write better mapping code.

When your agent uses it

  • You need no tile server
  • Want to host tiles from static storage

Example prompts

  • “/maplibre-pmtiles-patterns”

Requirements

  • Node.js

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 99f8774. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npm
    • java

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

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • github.com
    • maplibre.org
    • docs.protomaps.com
    • protomaps.com
    • overturemaps.org

    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

Maplibre Pmtiles Patterns loads about 4.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 78 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,150 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~78
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~4.6k

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 2,150 words (~4,597 tokens).

“PMTiles is a single-file format for vector or raster map tiles. You host one (or a few) files on any static host; MapLibre requests byte ranges over HTTP. No tile server, no dynamic backend. This skill covers when to use…”
