Serverless vector and raster tiles with PMTiles for MapLibre GL JS — single-file format, HTTP range requests, hosting on S3/R2/GitHub Pages, generating with Planetiler or tippecanoe, and the pmtiles protocol. Use when you need no tile server or want to host tiles from static storage.

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

# MapLibre PMTiles Patterns

PMTiles is a single-file format for vector or raster map tiles. You host one (or a few) files on any static host; MapLibre requests byte ranges over HTTP. No tile server, no dynamic backend. This skill covers when to use PMTiles, how to generate and host them, and how to connect them to MapLibre GL JS.

## When to Use This Skill

- Hosting map tiles without running a tile server (S3, Cloudflare R2, GitHub Pages, etc.)
- Building a fully static or serverless map stack
- Serving large tile sets from a CDN with range requests
- Generating PMTiles from OSM or other sources (Planetiler, tippecanoe)
- Using Overture Maps or other single-file tile datasets with MapLibre

## What PMTiles Is and Why It Matters

- **Vector and raster** — PMTiles supports both. A file can contain vector layers (e.g. water, roads, POIs), raster imagery (PNG/JPEG), or raster-dem (elevation, e.g. Terrarium format for terrain). In the style you use `type: 'vector'`, `type: 'raster'`, or `type: 'raster-dem'` accordingly.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add maplibre/maplibre-agent-skills/maplibre-pmtiles-patterns@sha256:4abae26bdabc0735

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261029.6548441, 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.
