Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a data skill usually connects to databases or online services with your credentials.

By portolan-sdi/portolan-skills (GitHub) · data · 13 stars · scanned at commit 1714d9a

Build a complete, well-documented Portolan catalog from a data source. Research the data and its publisher, convert to cloud-native formats, write the documentation and styles that make it usable, and publish. Use when someone wants to publish, mirror, or 'portolan-ify' a dataset, an open data portal, an ArcGIS or WFS service, or a folder of geospatial files.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'portolan-bootstrap' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'portolan-bootstrap' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named portolan-bootstrap already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/portolan-sdi/portolan-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '1714d9ab672e6a1bbc56ca12458e41b14484d426' -- 'skills/portolan-bootstrap' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/portolan-bootstrap' ~/.agents/skills/'portolan-bootstrap' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'portolan-bootstrap' ~/.claude/skills/'portolan-bootstrap' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
