Get Google Maps Search Results

Runs a Google Maps search by keyword plus optional GPS coordinates (@lat,lng,zoomz via ll) with language, country, domain, and offset-based pagination (start). Returns the local pack list with placeId, name, address, coordinates, rating, review count, price level, categories, phone, website, hours, and thumbnail. Use for local lead generation, competitor density mapping, market expansion research, hyperlocal directories, and feeding placeIds into the Maps Place, Reviews, or Photos endpoints.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
qYesSearch query term or phrase.
glNoThe two-letter country code for the country you want to limit the search to. Provide one exact documented value (245 allowed), e.g. `ac`, `af`.
hlNoThe two-letter language code for the language you want to use for the search. Provide one exact documented value (159 allowed), e.g. `af`, `ak`.
llNoGPS coordinates of the location where the search query is to be performed. This parameter is required if the 'start' parameter is present. The format for the `ll` parameter is `@` followed by latitude, longitude, and zoom level, separated by commas. The latitude and longitude should be in decimal degrees, and the zoom level is an integer. Example: `@40.7455096,-74.0083012,14z`.
startNoSpecifies the result offset for pagination purposes. The offset dictates the number of rows to skip from the beginning of the results. This is useful for accessing subsequent pages of search results. For example, an offset of 0 (the default value) returns the first page of results, 20 returns the second page, 40 returns the third page, and so on. This parameter is especially relevant when used in conjunction with the 'll' parameter for location-based searches.
domainNoGoogle domain to use. Default is google.com. Provide one exact documented value (195 allowed), e.g. `google.ac`, `google.ad`.

  2. First observed

TDQS

A4.1/5.0
Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, and destructiveHint=false, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds value by enumerating the exact result fields (placeId, rating, review count, price level, hours, etc.) and by noting that ll is required when start is present, though it says nothing about quotas, cost, or error behavior for what is an open-world scrape.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Two sentences, front-loaded with what the tool does before the field list and use cases. The long middle list of return fields is dense but each item is informative rather than filler.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With no output schema, the description correctly compensates by listing the returned fields, and it covers the required query plus the optional location, language, domain, and pagination controls. It is slightly thin on the ll/start interaction detail (only partially echoed from the schema) and on rate-limit or auth expectations, but an agent has enough to invoke it correctly.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents q, gl, hl, ll, start, and domain in detail. The description only summarizes them ('language, country, domain, and offset-based pagination'), adding no format or constraint detail beyond the schema, which matches the baseline of 3.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb and resource (runs a Google Maps search by keyword plus optional coordinates) and enumerates the returned local-pack fields. It also distinguishes itself from the Maps Place, Reviews, and Photos siblings by naming them as downstream consumers of the placeIds it returns.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Gives concrete usage contexts (local lead generation, competitor density mapping, hyperlocal directories) and explains that placeIds feed the Maps Place/Reviews/Photos endpoints, which is genuine routing guidance. It never states when NOT to use this tool or how it compares to sibling search tools such as yelp_search or google_serp_serp, so it falls short of a 5.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
