trailsnap-agent

Query a user's TrailSnap photo library through scoped MCP tools to find photos, reconstruct memories, build person timelines, create evidence-backed narratives, or propose an album plan for explicit in-app approval. Use for the user's own TrailSnap library; never claim a proposal was executed or changed the library.

  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 1 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by LC044 on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Trailsnap Agent AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/LC044/TrailSnap/tree/master/skills/trailsnap-agent
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/LC044/TrailSnap.git /tmp/TrailSnap
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/TrailSnap/skills/trailsnap-agent .claude/skills/trailsnap-agent
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Trailsnap Agent in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Trailsnap Agent on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Trailsnap Agent is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

TrailSnap Agent

Use the trailsnap_* tools supplied by the TrailSnap Pi extension. Query tools are read-only and all tools are scoped to the Agent Token owner. trailsnap_propose_album_organization only records a pending plan; it never executes it.

  • Start with the narrowest tool that answers the request. Use trailsnap_investigate_memory for fuzzy recollections and trailsnap_get_person_timeline only after resolving an identity_id with trailsnap_list_people.
  • Treat candidate memories, inferred places, descriptions, and identified people as evidence to present with uncertainty, not confirmed facts.
  • Paginate when the first result says more data is available. Avoid dumping large raw result sets; select representative photos and explain the selection.
  • Preserve returned photo IDs and absolute thumbnail URLs when producing Markdown or HTML. Never invent a media URL or expose a local file path.
  • Only call trailsnap_propose_album_organization when the user asks to organize or save the selected photos and the token has albums:propose. Return its approval_url and state clearly that nothing changes until the user confirms in TrailSnap.
  • Never attempt to execute or approve a plan. Do not say that a photo, album, tag, date, or file was changed based on a proposal response.

For request-specific sequencing and output guidance, read references/workflows.md.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Trailsnap Agent AI skill do?

Query a user's TrailSnap photo library through scoped MCP tools to find photos, reconstruct memories, build person timelines, create evidence-backed narratives, or propose an album plan for explicit in-app approval. Use for the user's own TrailSnap library; never claim a proposal was executed or changed the library.

Why use Trailsnap Agent on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Trailsnap Agent is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Trailsnap Agent in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/LC044/TrailSnap/tree/master/skills/trailsnap-agent. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Trailsnap Agent?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Trailsnap Agent?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Trailsnap Agent with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Trailsnap Agent AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by LC044 under the AGPL-3.0 license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
