What it does

This skill converts a natural-language lead request into a real Google Maps crawl. It infers the search phrase, location and coverage level (quick sample, normal, or comprehensive), then runs the open-source scraper in a local Docker container, polls progress, and presents the results.

Highlights:

  • Runs a validation crawl with one representative query before committing to the full run.
  • Proxy credentials are entered through a masked terminal prompt and passed as a file — never pasted into chat.
  • Extracts business name, category, rating and review count, phone, website, address, and emails on request.
  • Routes grid search, bulk review collection, and advanced flags to dedicated reference docs.

Who it's for

  • Marketers and SDRs building local B2B prospect lists
  • Small-business owners and consultants doing market or competitor mapping
  • Non-technical users who want a Docker tool driven without memorizing CLI flags

Examples

  1. "Get 100 pilates studios in Austin with phone numbers" → query file → validation crawl → full crawl → 20-row CSV preview.
  2. "Dentists in Berlin rated 4.5+" → scrape, then filter and sort the result set in place.
  3. "Also pull reviews for these cafes" → enables extra review collection via the advanced coverage reference.

Caution: large-scale scraping may conflict with platform terms of service and privacy regulations. The skill also surfaces sponsor proxy providers using referral links.
