Examples

Real examples for the Claude Code skills of the autobahn plugin, one per skill: a request, the autobahn commands the skill ran, and the answer Claude gave.

Every example ran against the live API; each section says when and with which autobahn. The data changes, so your results will differ; the ids and keys shown work for trying the requests yourself. Long lists are shortened.

To try them, install the CLI and the plugin — see SKILLS.md.

autobahn-ev-planner

Ran on 6 October 2026 at 00:28 with autobahn 0.5.0.

I’m driving my EV from Hamburg down to Göttingen on the A7. Where can I fast-charge on the way?

autobahn --compact roads
autobahn --compact charging list A7
autobahn --compact charging get RUxFQ1RSSUNfQ0hBUkdJTkdfU1RBVElPTl9fMTE5NDg=   # base64 id works too

The A7 returned 65 sites, from Ellund at the Danish border to Rottachtal in the Allgäu; the skill sorted them by latitude and kept the 17 between Hamburg and Göttingen. The middle part of each title names the direction of travel (Hannover/Göttingen/Kassel/Reutte on the West sites, Hamburg/Appenrade on the Ost sites), so it listed the southbound side. 16 of the 17 carry STRONG_ELECTRIC_CHARGING_STATION, including plain 50 kW sites, so it judged speed by the kW lines in description[] instead, trimming each line first (Wolfsgrund W sends its point count as "4 Ladepunkte ").

EV charging on the A7, Hamburg → Göttingen (southbound) — 17 sites in the stretch, none out of service
Southbound side: 10 sites, 6 with ≥150 kW. Operator is only stated for Deutschlandnetz sites.

autobahn-map

Ran on 6 October 2026 at 00:28 with autobahn 0.5.0.

I dispatch lorries on the A8. Give me the truck parking areas and the current traffic warnings as a GeoJSON file for QGIS.

autobahn --compact roads
autobahn --compact parking list A8
autobahn --compact warnings list A8

Parking items carry coordinate as a GeoJSON Point ({"type":"Point","coordinates":[lon,lat]}) and no point string, so the export read x/y from coordinate.coordinates, as the skill’s lonLat() does, and checked every pair before writing. Parking titles read A8 | undefined, so the area name comes from subtitle. Shortly after midnight the A8 had no warnings: warnings list returned [] with exit 0 — an empty layer, not a failed one, so the file is complete.

Wrote autobahn-A8-parking-warnings.geojson — one FeatureCollection, 71 features, 21 KB, 0 skipped
  parking   71 × Point        DE-BW-… (Baden-Württemberg) … DE-SL-000520 (Saarland)
  warnings   0                none on the A8 at 00:28 (empty answer, exit 0)
Properties: road, service, subtitle, display_type, isBlocked, future, identifier,
  description ("PKW Stellplätze: 20\nLKW Stellplätze: 16").

Largest lorry areas: Denkendorf 123 LKW spaces (DE-BW-008040), Gruibingen 112,
  Leipheim S 88, Aichen N 79, Samerberg N 69 — 1,990 lorry spaces in total.
Checked: every coordinate is a [lon, lat] number pair inside Germany; the file parses as
  a single FeatureCollection.

Next steps offered: drag the file onto https://geojson.io, re-export pretty-printed, or run it again in the daytime when the A8 usually carries warnings.

autobahn-route-check

Ran on 6 October 2026 at 00:27 with autobahn 0.5.0.

I’m driving from Frankfurt to Köln on the A3 tonight. Anything I should know about?

autobahn --compact roads
autobahn --compact warnings  list A3
autobahn --compact closures  list A3
autobahn --compact roadworks list A3

The A3 runs to Passau, so the skill kept only items inside a box around the two cities (lat 50.0–51.0, lon 6.9–8.75): 2 warnings, 3 ramp closures (CLOSURE_ENTRY_EXIT, counted apart from the road) and 76 roadworks. The one warning with a delay is on the user’s carriageway: QUEUING_TRAFFIC, 35 minutes, “Im Stillstand”. Its Beginn: line says 00:05 while the INRIX event line says seit 05.10.2026, 22:05 — that one is UTC, so the briefing quotes 00:05. Of the 76 roadworks, 45 have a window covering now — most are short-term night works whose windows run 06.10.26 von 00:00 bis 05:00 Uhr — and none says Vollsperrung. The skill read each window rather than future: 31 are planned, and one AS Montabaur works item with future: false only starts on 06.10. at 19:00. 15 roadworks are titled for a project rather than A3 | …; they are in the count. isBlocked was "false" and routeRecommendation empty on every item.

A3 Frankfurt → Köln — ⚠ drivable: one jam, no closures, no blocking roadworks
     (this stretch: 2 warnings / 0 closures + 3 ramp closures / 76 roadworks — 45 active,
      none blocking; whole A3: 2 / 1 + 28 ramp / 190)
  🐢 +35 min  QUEUING  A3 Frankfurt → Köln, Bad Camberg – Limburg-Süd: standstill since 00:05
  ⓘ  A3 Köln → Frankfurt, Limburg-Süd – Idstein: Fahrbahnschäden since 09.09.
     (other carriageway, no delay stated)

Ramp closures on this stretch:
  🚧 AS Siebengebirge, on- and off-ramp of the Köln → Frankfurt carriageway: active until 16.10. 05:00
  🚧 AS Montabaur, on-ramp from Montabaur (planned): 07.10. 19:00 – 08.10. 05:00 and 14.10. 20:00 – 15.10. 05:00
No detour recommendations were published for any of these.

Next steps offered: full detail on the jam (autobahn warnings get <identifier>, with the id from this run — warning ids are re-issued), or the same check for the return trip.
