Google Maps Scraper is a tool for collecting business information from Google Maps, such as names, addresses, websites, ratings, coordinates, reviews, and email addresses. Developers and researchers use its command-line interface, web interface, REST API, or self-hosted platform for lead generation and local-business research, and the catalogue skill lets coding agents control scraping workflows.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00289 | $0.00289 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00116 | $0.00116 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00058 | $0.00058 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00029 | $0.00029 |
Grade A, and why
google-maps-scraper AGENTS.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Build/Test Commands

Code Style Guidelines
- Use
gofmtfor formatting (spaces, not tabs) - Import order: standard library, third-party, local packages (prefix: github.com/gosom/google-maps-scraper)
- Use descriptive variable names (e.g.,
entry,cfg,ctx) - Error handling: return errors, use
fmt.Errorfwith wrapping (%w) - Use struct tags for JSON marshaling:
json:"field_name" - Constants use CamelCase (e.g.,
RunModeFile) - Interface names end with -er suffix (e.g.,
Runner,S3Uploader) - Use context.Context as first parameter in functions
- Prefer early returns to reduce nesting
- Use meaningful package names that reflect their purpose
- Add godoc comments for exported types and functions
- Use
nolintcomments sparingly with explanations - Avoid magic numbers, use named constants or comment them
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
