Query Google Places API (New) via the goplaces CLI for text search, place details, resolve, and reviews.

  • Human-friendly place lookup
  • Calls brew; needs GOOGLE_PLACES_API_KEY and NEXT_PAGE_TOKEN
  • JSON output for scripts

What it does

Goplaces is an agent skill from trpc-group/trpc-agent-go. Query Google Places API (New) via the goplaces CLI for text search, place details, resolve, and reviews. Use for human-friendly place lookup or JSON output for scripts.

Its SKILL.md is about 380 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It works with Google Maps Platform. The repository describes itself as: A Go framework for building production agent systems with graph workflows, tools, memory, A2A, AG-UI, MCP, evaluation, and observability. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Human-friendly place lookup
  • JSON output for scripts

Example prompts

  • “/goplaces”

Requirements

  • A credential in GOOGLE_PLACES_API_KEY
  • A credential in NEXT_PAGE_TOKEN

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7d53a6c. 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:

    • brew

    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 these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • GOOGLE_PLACES_API_KEY
    • NEXT_PAGE_TOKEN

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

Context cost

Goplaces loads about 384 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 44 tokens; SKILL.md has 94 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~44
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~384

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.
