mapbox-search-integration

mapbox-search-integration is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mapbox/mapbox-agent-skills. It costs 26 tokens per session (2,708 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A step-by-step guide for adding Mapbox search to an application. Mapbox provides map and location services, including address, place, and category search.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan and implement searches for addresses, places, brands, points of interest, or location categories.
Why use it?
It helps developers choose the right search service and clarify what users need to find before writing the integration.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

mapbox-search-integration 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 4d 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.

Mapbox Search Integration Skill

Expert guidance for implementing Mapbox search functionality in applications. Covers the complete workflow from asking the right discovery questions, selecting the appropriate search product, to implementing production-ready integrations following best practices from the Mapbox search team.

Use This Skill When

User says things like:

  • "I need to add search to my map"
  • "I need a search bar for my mapping app"
  • "How do I implement location search?"
  • "I want users to search for places/addresses"
  • "I need geocoding in my application"

This skill complements mapbox-search-patterns:

  • mapbox-search-patterns = Tool and parameter selection
  • mapbox-search-integration = Complete implementation workflow

Discovery Phase: Ask the Right Questions

Before jumping into code, ask these questions to understand requirements:

Question 1: What are users searching for?

Ask: "What do you want users to search for?"

Common answers and implications:

  • "Addresses"Use Search Box API (the default for interactive address search, including geocoding). Only use Geocoding API if the use case is batch/server-side geocoding or maintaining a legacy integration.
  • "Points of interest / businesses" → POI search, use Search Box API with category search
  • "Both addresses and POIs" → Search Box API
  • "Specific types of POIs" (restaurants, hotels, etc.) → Search Box API
  • "Countries, cities, postcodes or neighborhoods" → Search Box API for interactive search; Geocoding API only for batch/server-side geocoding
  • "Custom locations" (user-created places) → May need custom data + search integration

Follow-up if not stated initially: "Are your users searching for points of interest data? Restaurants, stores, categories of businesses?"

Implications:

  • "Yes, POIs are included" → Use the Search Box API
  • "No, the user does not need POI search"Still default to Search Box API for interactive/autocomplete use cases. Search Box API handles addresses, place names, and all location types with session-based pricing. Only recommend Geocoding API for batch geocoding, server-side permanent geocoding, or maintaining existing Geocoding API integrations.
