About

Mapbox API Skill

Overview

Mapbox provides APIs for maps, geocoding, and routing. This skill focuses on the Mapbox Search (Geocoding) and Navigation APIs for backend services.

Installation

npm install @mapbox/mapbox-sdk
pip install mapbox

Authentication

Authenticate using Access Tokens. Default public tokens (pk.*) are for frontends. Secret tokens (sk.*) are for backends.

Core Concepts

  • Geocoding: Converting text (addresses) into geographic coordinates.
  • Isochrone: Calculating areas reachable within a given time.
  • Matrix API: Travel times between many points.

Common Workflows

  1. Instantiate the client with your Secret Token.
  2. Call geocodingService.forwardGeocode.
  3. Extract features[0].center for coordinates.

Error Handling

Catch network errors and parse the message from Mapbox. Check HTTP 422 for unprocessable geometry.

Security

Always use URL restrictions (Referrer matching) on Public Tokens. Keep Secret Tokens completely out of client-side code.

Rate Limits

Geocoding is limited to 600 requests per minute on standard plans.

Best Practices

Cache geocoding results permanently where legally allowed by the Terms of Service to dramatically reduce API costs and latency.

Troubleshooting

If reverse geocoding returns inaccurate results, ensure you are passing the correct types filter (e.g., address, poi).

Why use this skill

Use this when your agent works with mapbox — structured patterns beat pasted docs and prevent common hallucinations.

AI pitfalls

  • Referencing CLI flags or config keys that do not exist
  • Using outdated major versions of tools
  • Skipping lockfile or version pinning in examples

Production checklist

  • [ ] Secrets in environment variables, not source code
  • [ ] Error handling and logging in place
  • [ ] Rate limits and timeouts configured
