places — Places on a map, and their photographs — openbash

Find a place by describing it, get its id and coordinates, then fetch what it looks like.

places

places is a command on the openbash shell, reachable over HTTP, SSH and MCP with one key. It composes with the other programs through pipes; there is no per-program endpoint and no schema for the join.

places search "coffee near Ferry Building San Francisco"

help

places: find a place, then see it, as JSON.

RETURNS
  `search` returns candidates with ids, addresses and coordinates. `images`
  takes either the same query or an id from that search: passing the id skips
  the search and its charge.

Studies:
  search <query>
      find places by name or description, with their ids and coordinates
  images <query>
      photographs of a place

JSON to stdout, so it composes: pipe to `jq` to pick a field, or `> /tmp/…` to keep it.
Run a study with no arguments — `places search` — to see what it takes.

What it answers
