Query CarJam NZ public/basic vehicle information pages through a lightweight no-login CLI. Use when the task involves New Zealand vehicle plate, VIN, or chassis lookup, make/model/year/colour, public registration/WOF/licence snippets, odometer snippets, or CarJam source URLs. Read-only; no paid report purchase, owner lookup, login, account, or write actions.

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

# CarJam NZ

## Goal

Query public/basic CarJam NZ vehicle information from the no-login HTML report page through a deterministic Python CLI.

## Use this when

- A user asks for public CarJam details for a New Zealand plate, VIN, or chassis
- A user wants a quick make/model/year/colour/plate/VIN summary
- A workflow needs machine-readable public vehicle metadata with source URLs
- A user wants to know which fields are report-gated versus visible for free

## Do not use this for

- Paid CarJam report purchase, checkout, subscription, login, or account actions
- Owner name/address lookup, personal information extraction, or bypassing report gates
- Updating stolen status, reminders, watchlists, or any write/mutation flow
- Treating public snippets as official legal advice; direct users to NZTA/Waka Kotahi or CarJam for authoritative/current status

## Preferred workflow

1. Run `scripts/cli.py lookup <plate>` for one vehicle
2. Add `--json` for structured output or chaining
3. Use `--raw` only when the task needs all parsed public fields rather than the concise summary
4. Use `batch` for a small set of plates; keep the default delay to avoid hammering the public site

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add thecolab-ai/.skills/carjam-nz@sha256:de96297c4b2f990a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260719.1748a98, 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.
