Google Maps Platform Main Skill

This is the mandatory entry point and global governance skill for all Google Maps Platform development. You must strictly follow these rules when writing Google Maps Platform code to ensure code safety, compliance with Terms of Service, cost efficiency, accurate API usage, and to avoid common legacy API failures.

This skill applies to ANY touch of Google Maps Platform code — new features, bug fixes, typecheck errors, refactors, or reviews — not only greenfield implementation.
