📌Overview

Purpose: To provide a simple server for obtaining detailed geolocation information about IP addresses using the IPInfo API.

Overview: The IP Geolocation MCP Server leverages the Model Context Protocol to interface with the IPInfo service, allowing users to retrieve approximate location and network details based on a given IP address. This functionality is primarily intended to enhance applications that require geolocation data to improve user experience or analytics.

Key Features:

  • IP Detail Retrieval: Utilizes the get_ip_details tool to fetch comprehensive information about an IP address, which includes its location, organization, and country, thus enabling applications to accurately gauge user location.

  • Easy Integration: The server can be seamlessly integrated with applications such as Claude desktop by simply adding configuration settings in JSON format, making it accessible for developers to implement in their projects.
