TripGo API Skill

This skill provides a complete interface to the TripGo API, enabling agents to perform multimodal routing, retrieve public transport information, manage trips, and perform geocoding.

Overview

The TripGo API is a platform for multimodal transport, allowing users to plan trips combining public transport, car, bike, taxi, rideshare, and more. This skill encapsulates the API endpoints into modular scripts and documentation references.

A key advantage is mode-aware trip comparison from the same origin/destination context, enabling assistants to return practical route choices with transport-type tradeoffs in one workflow. It also works exceptionally well with location-discovery skills (e.g., Google Places / goplaces): resolve a place first, then pass coordinates/IDs into TripGo routing to produce actionable journey options, including fare signals and cost estimates (e.g., taxi fares) when provided by upstream operators.

Configuration

To use this skill, you must set the following environment variables:

• TRIPGO_API_KEY: Your TripGo API key (header: X-TripGo-Key). Get it here: https://skedgo.com/tripgo-api/
• TRIPGO_BASE_URL: (Optional) Base URL for the API. Defaults to https://api.tripgo.com/v1.
• TRIPGO_WEBHOOK_ALLOWLIST: (Optional, recommended) Comma-separated allowlist of webhook domains (e.g. example.com,webhooks.example.org).
• TRIPGO_ALLOW_UNSAFE_WEBHOOK: (Optional, default false) Set to true to bypass webhook allowlist checks for trusted/manual debugging only.

Runtime Requirements

Install these binaries before running scripts:

• curl (required): API requests
• jq (required): JSON validation, safe JSON construction, and URL encoding
• python3 (optional): pretty-printing for a few scripts

Security Notes

• Scripts that accept JSON parameters validate those values with jq before sending requests.
• Scripts that send query parameters URL-encode user-provided values.
• Webhook hook registration enforces https:// and domain allowlisting by default (TRIPGO_WEBHOOK_ALLOWLIST) to reduce exfiltration risk.
• API key usage is expected: requests send X-TripGo-Key to the configured TripGo base URL.

Directory Structure

• SKILL.md: This file.
• references/: Detailed documentation for each API section.
• scripts/: Executable Bash scripts for each API endpoint.

References (references/)

Documentation is organized by API section. Load these files to understand specific endpoints, parameters, and response structures.

• references/configuration.md: Regions, TSPs, and POIs.
• references/routing.md: Journey planning and routing (A-to-B, multi-point).
• references/trips.md: Trip management (save, update, real-time hooks).
• references/ttp.md: Travelling Tourist Problem (Deprecated).
• references/geocode.md: Search and autocompletion.
• references/locations.md: Location services and POIs.
• references/public-transport.md: Public transport operators, routes, services, and real-time data.

Scripts (scripts/)

Each script corresponds to a specific API endpoint. They are designed to be executed directly or used as templates.

• scripts/public-transport-get-details-of-a-service.sh
• scripts/public-transport-get-real-time-alerts.sh

Usage Constraints

• Do NOT invent parameters. All scripts use parameters explicitly documented in references/.
• Deprecated Endpoints: Some scripts are marked as deprecated (e.g., TTP section). Use with caution or avoid if possible.
• Verification: If a parameter or field is marked as "To be confirmed" in the references, verify with a live API call before relying on it in production.
• Environment: Ensure TRIPGO_API_KEY is set in the environment before running any script.

Example

Searching for a location:

export TRIPGO_API_KEY="your_key_here"
./scripts/geocode-search-and-autocompletion.sh --query "Sydney Opera House" --near "(-33.8688,151.2093)"

Planning a trip:

./scripts/routing-a-to-b-trips.sh --from "(lat,lng)" --to "(lat,lng)" --region "AU_NSW_Sydney"
