Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

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

    Scanned mapbox/mapbox-agent-skills at f71cd72b8d.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

The mapbox-style-patterns skill provides AI agents with the ability to generate and apply custom Mapbox style patterns for visualizing geographic data. This includes creating tile layers, defining symbology rules, and applying thematic styling based on data attributes.

When to use it

  • To design custom map styles for applications requiring unique visual representations of spatial data.
  • When integrating AI-generated maps into dashboards or web apps that need dynamic styling.
  • For developers looking to automate the creation of visually consistent map layers across different datasets.

Key capabilities

  • Generate Mapbox GL style JSON configurations.
  • Apply pattern-based symbology for geographic features.
  • Support for custom tile layer definitions and data-driven styling rules.

Example prompts

  • "Create a Mapbox style with a dashed line pattern for roads in urban areas."
  • "Generate a tile layer configuration using a hexagonal grid pattern for population density visualization."
  • "Define a symbology rule that colors regions based on temperature thresholds."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure your AI agent has access to Mapbox GL libraries or APIs for rendering the generated styles.
  • Be mindful of performance when applying complex patterns, as they may increase rendering load in web applications.
