A command-line workflow for using AMap, a Chinese mapping service, through its web APIs. It supports location lookup, address-to-coordinate conversion, weather, routes, distances, and searches for nearby places.

It is for geocoding addresses, finding places, locating an IP address, checking weather, planning routes, and measuring travel distances.

It lets an AI agent request mapping and location data from scripts instead of handling those API calls manually.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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	$0.00078	$0.00246
Opus 5.5	$0.00031	$0.00098
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00016	$0.00049

Security

Grade A, and why

amap 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 8 executable files (scripts/amap.ts, scripts/lib/commands.ts, scripts/lib/config.ts, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

What it actually says

AMap Skill

Quick Start

Ensure AMAP_MAPS_API_KEY is set.
Run bun scripts/amap.ts --help in this skill directory.
Pick the matching command from references/command-map.md.

Workflow

Validate user intent and select one command.
Prefer address commands for route planning when users provide plain addresses.
Keep output as raw AMap JSON without wrapping fields.
Treat any non-zero API business state as failure.

Commands

Full command mapping: references/command-map.md
Ready-to-run examples: references/examples.md

Notes

This skill is script-first and does not run an MCP server.
Only AMAP_MAPS_API_KEY is supported.

Files

What ships with it

16 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
