What This Skill Does

Queries Apple Maps via the `goplaces` CLI to search for places, find businesses nearby, and get directions between locations.

CLI Tool: `goplaces`

Common Commands

# Search for a place by name or keyword
goplaces search "coffee shops near downtown Austin"

# Find nearby places by category
goplaces nearby "pizza"
goplaces nearby "gas station"

# Get directions between two locations
goplaces directions "Austin TX" "San Antonio TX"
goplaces directions --mode walking "Zilker Park" "South Congress Ave"

# Get details about a specific place
goplaces details "Barton Springs Pool, Austin"

Transport Modes

`--mode driving` (default)
`--mode walking`
`--mode transit`

Usage Guidelines

1. Use natural language for location queries — `goplaces` handles geocoding automatically. 2. For "nearby" searches, the current device location is used unless a starting point is specified. 3. When providing directions, confirm origin and destination with the user if ambiguous. 4. Present results as a numbered list when multiple places are returned.
