Overview

This server provides direct access to 16 distinct tools from IPGeolocation.io, enabling your AI to fetch granular location, timezone, and security data. Capabilities range from standard IP geolocation and ASN details to complex tasks like user-agent parsing, threat and proxy detection, and solar positioning data. The server operates via stdio and requires a valid API key from IPGeolocation.io. While seven tools are available on the provider's free plan, the remaining features and bulk processing endpoints require a paid subscription. Configuration is straightforward for standard MCP clients using the provided environment variable for authentication.

Our verdict

With a security score of 43/100, this server carries a high risk level. The score reflects that the project is not maintained by the official vendor and has not yet undergone editorial review, meaning the implementation of security practices is community-driven rather than verified. Users should exercise caution and only integrate this server if they are comfortable with community-supported code and have reviewed the authentication flow.

Paste into ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows), then restart Claude Desktop. Some servers require API keys or tokens as environment variables — check the project's README and add an "env" object if needed.

No read-only mode — running this grants full read/write access.
No built-in authentication — anyone with access to this config can invoke every tool it exposes.
