Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.
Pinned to a commit: passed

About this skill
What it does
This skill facilitates the migration of mapping applications from Google Maps to Mapbox, streamlining the transition process for developers. It handles the necessary code adjustments and configuration changes required to switch map providers seamlessly within an AI agent's workflow.
When to use it
- You are building a location-based application currently dependent on Google Maps APIs and want to reduce costs or improve performance with Mapbox.
- Your project requires switching map tiles, routing engines, or geocoding services from Google to the Mapbox ecosystem.
- You need automated assistance to refactor legacy code that relies heavily on Google Maps JavaScript API structures.
Key capabilities
- Identifies existing Google Maps API integrations within a codebase.
- Generates updated code snippets compatible with Mapbox GL JS.
- Assists in reconfiguring map layers, markers, and interaction events for the new provider.
- Provides guidance on migrating geocoding and directions services.
Example prompts
- "Help me migrate my current Google Maps integration to use Mapbox for better tile customization."
- "What changes do I need to make to switch from Google Directions API to Mapbox Routing?"
- "Refactor this code snippet that uses Google Places API to work with Mapbox Geocoding."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure you have a valid Mapbox access token ready before attempting the migration, as the skill will require authentication to generate functional map configurations. Be prepared to manually review generated code for specific business logic that may not translate automatically between the two platforms.
