Google Maps Helper
Get directions, find nearby places, and plan routes right inside ChatGPT or Claude
About this skill
Google Maps Helper lets your assistant look up addresses, find nearby places, get directions and travel times, and check things like elevation, timezone, weather, and air quality for any location. It only reads from the official Google Maps APIs using a key you provide, so it can plan a route or compare restaurants but can never change anything in your accounts. Your searches go to Google the same way a normal Maps lookup would.
What it does
- Look up addresses and coordinates (geocoding)
- Find nearby places, businesses, and venue details
- Get driving, walking, and transit directions and travel times
- Check elevation, timezone, weather, and air quality for a location
- Generate static map images and compare or rank places
- Change, delete, or post anything to your Google account
- Read your email, files, contacts, or calendar
- Access any data beyond the Google Maps API key you provide
- Run shell commands or modify files on your device
Security report
- Hidden instructions that could trick your AI (prompt injection)
- Secretly collecting or sending your data (data exfiltration)
- Asking for more access than it needs
- Unsafe actions that could delete or send things without asking
- Where it comes from and whether its licence is clear
