photon-geocoder SKILL.md skillA

photon-geocoder from lu1sdv/skillsmd is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add lu1sdv/skillsmd/photon-geocoder@git:20260301.c9e6e1b

Pins git:20260301.c9e6e1b in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use when geocoding addresses, reverse geocoding coordinates, building address autocomplete, or integrating location search with OpenStreetMap data via Photon API (photon.komoot.io). Triggers on "photon", "geocode", "reverse geocode", "OSM address search".

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Photon Geocoder API

Open-source geocoder for OpenStreetMap data. Free public instance at `photon.komoot.io` (rate-limited) or self-hosted via `java -jar photon.jar serve` on port 2322.

## When to Use

- Converting addresses/place names to coordinates (forward geocoding)
- Converting coordinates to addresses (reverse geocoding)
- Building search-as-you-type address autocomplete
- Filtering places by OSM tags, layers, or categories
- Need free, no-API-key geocoding with multilingual support

**Not for:** Routing/directions (use OSRM/GraphHopper), map tile rendering, POI databases.

## Quick Reference

| Endpoint | Purpose | Required Params |
|----------|---------|-----------------|
| `GET /api` | Forward search | `q` (search term) |
| `GET /structured` | Structured address search | At least one of: `city`, `street`, `postcode`, etc. |
| `GET /reverse` | Reverse geocode | `lat`, `lon` |
| `GET /status` | Health check + data date | None |

**Public instance:** `https://photon.komoot.io` (add `/api?q=...`)
**Self-hosted default:** `http://localhost:2322`

## Autocomplete Pattern

```
GET /api?q=via+rom&lat=41.89&lon=12.49&zoom=14&limit=5&lang=it&layer=street&layer=house
```

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add lu1sdv/skillsmd/photon-geocoder@sha256:6854172f35ea87c2

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260301.c9e6e1b, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
