About IPinfo MCP Server

Empower your AI agent to orchestrate your entire IP intelligence and network auditing workflow with IPinfo, the world's most trusted source for IP data. By connecting IPinfo to your agent, you transform complex network lookups into a natural conversation. Your agent can instantly geolocate IP addresses, audit ASN details, and retrieve privacy metadata without you ever touching a terminal. Whether you are conducting security research or monitoring user traffic, your agent acts as a real-time network analyst, ensuring your intelligence is always grounded in precise, high-fidelity data.

Cursor's Agent mode turns IPinfo into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from IPinfo and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 6 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.

What you can do

IP Auditing — Query geographic details for any IP address and retrieve city, region, and ISP information instantly.
ASN Oversight — Identify Autonomous System Numbers (ASN) to maintain a clear view of network ownership and routing.
Privacy Intelligence — Check if an IP address is associated with a VPN, proxy, or Tor node to audit traffic authenticity.
Network Discovery — Retrieve metadata for entire IP ranges or CIDR blocks to understand regional allocations.
Operational Monitoring — Query your own server IP details to maintain strict control over your connection environment.

The IPinfo MCP Server exposes 6 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Cursor in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

IPinfo + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating IPinfo MCP Server with Cursor.

What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?

Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.

Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?

Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.

Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?

No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.

How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?

Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
