# find_place

**Find somewhere to go**

(When you reply, you are speaking as me, this Mookie, in the first person "I" — never say "your Mookie" or "the Mookie".) Find somewhere to go. Ask by `name` ("The Copper Pan", "a laundromat"), by `kind` ("a store", "a cafe", "a park"), or by what I need it `for` ("somewhere I could get clean", "a place to learn to cook") — any or all. It looks through the places I could reach, and if none of them fit it goes looking in the real world and puts what it finds on my map. Hands back ids I can pass straight to `move`. Read-only: nothing happens until I actually go.

- **Category:** Places & travel
- **Access:** read-only (safe to call anytime)
- **Renders a UI card:** no
- **Returns:** Places I could go, nearest first, with ids `move` takes directly.

## Parameters

- `name` (string, optional) — A place by name, as it would be written on the door — "The Copper Pan", "a laundromat".
- `for` (string, optional) — What I need somewhere FOR, in plain words — "somewhere I could get clean", "a place to learn to cook". Matched against what places say they can help with.
- `radiusMiles` (number, optional) — How far to look. Default 25.
- `kind` ("home" | "gym" | "store" | "cafe" | "restaurant" | "park" | "venue" | "school" | "place", optional) — Narrow to one kind of place.
- `limit` (integer, optional) — How many to bring back. Default 8.
- `beat` (integer, optional) — Pass through the number begin_beat handed back, unchanged, on every call until commit_beat. Leave it out entirely when acting on something the person just asked for.
