System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This skill enables an agent to search for places using a local Google Places API proxy on localhost, enabling fast, private discovery without exposing API keys publicly.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Local API proxy: Query nearby places (restaurants, cafes, shops) via a local proxy to minimize external surface area.
  • Location resolution: Resolve a user-provided location string to coordinates for targeted searches.
  • Place details: Retrieve detailed information for a given place_id, including name, address, and hours.
  • Use Case: When guiding a user to a nearby coffee shop, search by type (cafe), then fetch details for the chosen result.

Quick Start

To run the skill locally:

  • Set the GOOGLE_PLACES_API_KEY environment variable with your Google API key.
  • Start the FastAPI server: uvicorn local_places.main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
  • Query the API endpoints, for example: curl http://localhost:8000/ping
  • Use the endpoints: POST /places/search, GET /places/{place_id}, POST /locations/resolve
