IPinfo missed one check this week

Everything else answered, so this is steady rather than shaky. We check every 15 minutes, which is how a one-off gets told apart from the start of a pattern, and how you hear about the next one within the hour instead of from your users.

Endpoint below is the one we actually reach during checks — not the one copied from a README. Last verified 15 min ago.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add mcp --transport http https://mcp.ipinfo.io/
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp": {

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: IPINFO_TOKEN (Your IPinfo API token. Get a free one at https://ipinfo.io/signup). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Available tools 6

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

ipinfo
ipinfo_asn
Get autonomous system (network ownership) information for IP addresses. By default queries the IPinfo Lite endpoint, which returns ASN, name, and domain. Set detailed=True to query the full lookup endpoint, which also includes the network type (e.g. isp, hosting, business, education). Results are paginated. If the API reports an error for specific IPs, those IPs are listed in errors with the reason and left out of results. Results are cached in memory for the session, so repeat lookups of the same IP are served from cache without consuming API quota. You do not need to maintain your own cache or deduplicate IPs before calling this tool. The _meta field reports api_calls_made and from_cache counts.
ipinfo_check_privacy
Check whether IP addresses are using privacy or anonymity services. Returns privacy flags for each IP: whether it is anonymous, using a VPN, proxy, relay, or Tor, and whether it is an anycast, hosting, mobile, or satellite address. Requires a paid API token. Results are paginated. If the API reports an error for specific IPs, those IPs are listed in errors with the reason and left out of results. Do not treat a missing result as "no privacy services detected": check errors. Results are cached in memory for the session, so repeat checks of the same IP are served from cache without consuming API quota. You do not need to maintain your own cache or deduplicate IPs before calling this tool. The _meta field reports api_calls_made and from_cache counts.
ipinfo_check_residential_proxy
Check whether IP addresses are known residential proxies. Returns whether each IP is a residential proxy and, if so, the proxy service name, the date it was last seen, and the percentage of days the IP was observed as a proxy. Requires a paid API token with residential proxy access. Results are paginated. If the API reports an error for specific IPs, those IPs are listed in errors with the reason and left out of results. Do not treat a missing result as "not a residential proxy": check errors. Results are cached in memory for the session, so repeat checks of the same IP are served from cache without consuming API quota. You do not need to maintain your own cache or deduplicate IPs before calling this tool. The _meta field reports api_calls_made and from_cache counts.
ipinfo_geolocate
Get geographic location data for one or more IP addresses. By default queries the IPinfo Lite endpoint, which returns country and continent. Set detailed=True to query the full lookup endpoint, which adds city, region, coordinates, timezone, and postal code. Results are paginated. If the API reports an error for specific IPs, those IPs are listed in errors with the reason and left out of results. Results are cached in memory for the session, so repeat lookups of the same IP are served from cache without consuming API quota. You do not need to maintain your own cache or deduplicate IPs before calling this tool. The _meta field reports api_calls_made and from_cache counts.
ipinfo_lookup
Look up geolocation, network, and metadata for one or more IP addresses. By default queries the IPinfo Lite endpoint, which returns country, continent, and ASN info. Set detailed=True to query the full lookup endpoint, which adds city-level geolocation, privacy flags (VPN, proxy, Tor, hosting, anycast), and richer AS data. Results are paginated. Use page and page_size to control which slice is returned. If the API reports an error for specific IPs, those IPs are listed in errors with the reason and left out of results. Results are cached in memory for the session, so repeat lookups of the same IP are served from cache without consuming API quota. You do not need to maintain your own cache or deduplicate IPs before calling this tool. The _meta field reports api_calls_made and from_cache counts.
ipinfo_quota
Check your IPinfo API usage and remaining quota. Returns daily and monthly request counts, the plan limit, and how many requests remain.

IPinfo — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can IPinfo do?
It exposes 6 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: ipinfo_asn, ipinfo_check_privacy, ipinfo_check_residential_proxy, ipinfo_geolocate, ipinfo_lookup, ipinfo_quota. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is IPinfo working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 217 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect IPinfo?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does IPinfo need an API key?
No. IPinfo completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 6 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is IPinfo?
It answers our handshake in 217 ms on average, which is faster than 63% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is IPinfo open source?
Yes — it is published under the Apache-2.0 licence, written in Python and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
