near-a-landmark

near-a-landmark is a skill for Claude Code from tickadoo/tickadoo-mcp. It costs 66 tokens per session (840 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for finding activities close to a named landmark, neighbourhood, hotel, or venue in a city. It searches using the place name, so you do not need to provide map coordinates.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find things to do near places such as the Louvre, Trastevere, or Times Square. It is for place-based activity searches where proximity to a specific area matters.
Why use it?
It removes the need to translate a familiar place into latitude and longitude. It also distinguishes exact matches near the named place from fallback results in the city centre.

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

near-a-landmark 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 11d 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.

Near a landmark with tickadoo

Use the tickadoo MCP tools (mcp.tickadoo.com/mcp) when the ask is anchored to a PLACE inside a city. "Things to do near the Louvre" is a different question from "things to do in Paris".

When to use this

The user names a landmark, neighbourhood, square, venue or area: "near the Louvre", "in Trastevere", "around Times Square". If the place is unnamed ("walking distance from my hotel"), ask which hotel or area they mean — never guess. If they mean the whole city, use city-wide discovery instead.

The workflow (tool chain)

  1. Place-anchored searchsearch_local_experiences(place_hint, city?) is the primary tool. It takes the coarse place phrase directly (no coordinates) and matches first by exact venue/neighbourhood, then falls back to the city centre. Do not use find_nearby_experiences from ChatGPT (it needs real coordinates), and never guess coordinates.
  2. Say what "near" meant — prefer exact venue or neighbourhood matches over city-centre fallback results, and say which you got ("I couldn't anchor to that exact spot, so these are central-Paris options"). Do not claim or rank by walking time unless returned location data supports it.
  3. Enrich the picksget_experience_details(product_id or slug) for the actual location before making any proximity claim.
  4. Check the pickget_availability for the selected product (date range, party size, fresh when supported), then check_availability(slug, date, party_size) only when the user wants the date-specific booking link. For a same-day check ("this afternoon"), use the venue-local calendar date (e.g. from the selected result's start_time), never the assistant's system timezone.
  5. "While you are there" pair — run a new search_local_experiences call anchored to the selected venue or area. get_travel_tips(city, topic: "transport") if they ask how to get there.

Show results as cards

When a search_local_experiences set will be shown, immediately call render_experience_cards exactly once for it: only the product_id values exactly as returned by the discovery tool (IDs are internal — pass them verbatim, never display or read them aloud), a required render_type from the callable schema, optionally render_context.intent_summary ("near the Louvre this afternoon"). Do not re-list the same experiences in text.

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.
