mcp_ipinfo

mcp_ipinfo is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from NimbleBrainInc/mcp-ipinfo. It costs 0 tokens per session (261 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An IP-address lookup tool that provides information about an internet address, such as its organisation, hosted domains, abuse contact, and WHOIS registration details.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps investigate one or many IP addresses, identify companies and hosted domains, find abuse contacts, inspect registration data, and check privacy or hosting indicators.
Why use it?
It keeps follow-up questions tied to the same IP address and uses a more detailed lookup when checking for VPNs, proxies, or Tor.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

mcp_ipinfo scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (__init__.py, api_client.py, api_models.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

IPInfo

Critical: Context Reuse

Follow-up questions ("this IP", "that one", "is it a VPN?") → reuse IP from prior result.

User: "lookup 195.179.201.16" → get_ip_info(ip="195.179.201.16")
User: "is this a VPN?"       → get_plus_ip_info(ip="195.179.201.16")  ← SAME IP

Never call with empty {}. Always pass ip explicitly.

Tool Selection

Intent Tool
General lookup get_ip_info(ip)
VPN/proxy/Tor get_plus_ip_info(ip)
Abuse contact get_abuse_contact(ip)
Company info get_company_info(ip)
Hosted domains get_hosted_domains(ip)
WHOIS whois_lookup_by_ip(ip)
Multiple IPs batch_lookup(ips)

VPN Detection

Use get_plus_ip_info (not get_ip_info) for privacy flags:

  • anonymous.vpn, anonymous.proxy, anonymous.tor
  • is_hosting = datacenter/cloud provider
Files

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
