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.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple IPinfo tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 6 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.
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 Windsurf in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
