Overview

This MCP server provides IP geolocation details using the ipinfo.io API, enabling location and network identification based on IP addresses.

This server is generally safe for use as it primarily provides read-only access to IP geolocation data. The main risk is the potential exposure of the IPInfo API token. Ensure the token is securely stored and managed to prevent unauthorized access. Rate limiting and cost should also be considered.

Performance is primarily limited by the ipinfo.io API's response time. Caching IP geolocation data can improve performance for frequently accessed IPs.

Cost is directly related to the usage of the ipinfo.io API. Monitor API usage and choose an appropriate pricing plan to avoid unexpected charges.

Safety Score

low risk

Positive

+Read-only access to IP geolocation data.
+No write or delete operations.
+Relies on a third-party API (ipinfo.io) for data retrieval.
+Requires an API token for authentication, limiting unauthorized access.
+No local filesystem access.

Risks

-Requires an IPInfo API token, which needs to be securely managed.
-Dependence on external ipinfo.io service introduces a potential point of failure.
-IP geolocation data is approximate and may not be perfectly accurate.
-Potential for overuse of the API leading to rate limiting or cost implications.

Use Cases

Security Analysis

-Identifying the geographical origin of network traffic.
-Detecting suspicious login attempts from unusual locations.
-Enriching security logs with geolocation data.

User Experience

-Personalizing content based on user location.
-Redirecting users to regional websites.
-Tailoring language settings based on IP geolocation.

Fraud Detection

-Verifying user location against billing address.
-Identifying high-risk transactions originating from specific regions.
-Flagging suspicious activity based on IP geolocation data.

Who Is This For?

Best For

Security analysts investigating network traffic.
Developers personalizing content based on user location.
Fraud detection systems verifying user location.
Applications requiring IP geolocation data for various purposes.
Enriching existing datasets with location information.

Not Ideal For

Applications requiring highly accurate location data.
Use cases with strict privacy requirements.
Offline environments without internet access.
Real-time tracking of user movements.

Autonomy & Execution

Default ModeRead-only

Sandboxed

The server operates in a read-only mode, so autonomy is limited to data retrieval. Ensure the IPInfo API token is securely managed in autonomous contexts.

StatelessYes

Retry LogicNot documented

ConcurrencySingle-threaded

Production Tip

Monitor API usage to prevent rate limiting and unexpected costs. Implement robust error handling to gracefully handle API failures.

FAQ

What is the accuracy of the IP geolocation data?

The accuracy varies depending on the IP address and the data provided by ipinfo.io. It is generally accurate to the city level, but may not be precise for rural areas.

How do I handle API rate limiting?

Implement retry logic with exponential backoff. Monitor API usage and consider upgrading to a higher pricing tier if necessary.

Is it safe to expose the IPInfo API token in my application?

No, it is not safe. Store the API token securely using environment variables or a secrets management system.

Can I use this server to track user locations in real-time?

No, this server is not designed for real-time tracking. IP geolocation data is approximate and may not be updated frequently enough for real-time tracking.

What kind of data does the `get_ip_details` tool return?

The tool returns detailed information about the IP address, including location, organization, country details, and more, formatted as a Pydantic model.

Does this server support IPv6 addresses?

Yes, the server supports both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

What happens if the ipinfo.io API is unavailable?

The server will return an error. Implement error handling in your client application to gracefully handle API failures.
