Wraps the ipinfo.io free tier to give Claude IP geolocation and lookup capabilities without requiring authentication. Useful when you need to resolve IP addresses to locations, ASN details, or network information during conversations. Part of the Pipeworx gateway ecosystem, so you can either connect to this single service or plug into their full gateway for 250+ data sources. Supports the ask_pipeworx pattern where you ask questions in plain English instead of calling tools directly. Runs over streamable HTTP, so no local process needed.
IPInfo MCP — wraps ipinfo.io (free tier, no auth required for basic usage)
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1476+ live data sources.
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
lookup_ip | Get geolocation and network info for any IP address (e.g., "8.8.8.8"). Returns city, region, country, coordinates, org, postal code, timezone. |
get_my_ip | Get your current IP address with geolocation data. Returns city, region, country, coordinates, org, postal code, timezone. |
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"ipinfo": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/ipinfo/mcp"
}
}
}
tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/ipinfo/mcp returns the tools in the table
above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-tools — ask_pipeworx,
discover_tools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the
gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a
single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the
pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and
is the authoritative answer for a given day.
This is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a
scoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via
ask_pipeworx, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a
second MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without
them; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth,
connect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed directly, instead of just this one's:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Both URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1476+ data sources. The
only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx
reaches all of them from either one.
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English — this works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Ipinfo data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
