Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| lookup_ip | Read-only unified IP lookup via GET /v3/ipgeo. Base lookup costs 1 credit; include=security adds 2 credits and include=abuse adds 1 credit. Use this first when one IP or domain needs multiple data domains: location, company/ASN, network, timezone, currency, security, abuse, user_agent, hostname, geo_accuracy, or dma_code. Returns root IP/domain data plus selected objects such as location, country_metadata, currency, asn, network, company, time_zone, security, abuse, user_agent, hostname, geo_accuracy, or dma_code. Free plans support core location, country_metadata, currency, time_zone, basic ASN, fields, and excludes; paid plans add domain lookup, company, network, extended ASN, non-English lang, and include modules. ip omitted means caller IP. fields/excludes use comma-separated dot paths; ip is always returned, unknown excludes do not error, and include wins over fields/excludes. This server auto-adds include modules referenced by fields. Use lookup_asn only for peers, upstreams, downstreams, routes, or WHOIS; use check_security or get_abuse_contact only for security-only or abuse-only requests. |
| bulk_lookup_ip | Read-only bulk IP lookup via POST /v3/ipgeo-bulk. Paid only. Base geolocation costs 1 credit per valid IP; security adds 2 and abuse adds 1 per valid IP. This MCP server accepts up to 1,000 IPs per request. Use when multiple IPs or domains need location data or mixed IP domains. Private, bogon, and malformed IPs are not billed. fields, excludes, lang, and include behave like lookup_ip for each item; this server also infers include modules from fields. For security-only batches, use bulk_security_check. |
| get_my_ip | Return the public IP address of the machine running this MCP server via GET /v3/getip. Takes no input parameters and requires no API key, account, or credits. Returns a plain IP address string, not geolocation data. Use this only when the user asks for the server or caller public IP; use lookup_ip for location, ASN, timezone, currency, security, or abuse data. |
| lookup_company | Read-only ownership lookup via GET /v3/ipgeo. Paid only. Cost: 1 credit. Use only for company/ASN ownership; use lookup_ip once if the same IP request also needs location, security, abuse, network, timezone, or currency. Returns { company, asn }: company name/type/domain plus ASN allocation fields when available. ip omitted means caller IP. force_refresh bypasses cache only when the user asks. Call once per IP target and post-process locally. |
| lookup_currency | Read-only currency and country metadata lookup via GET /v3/ipgeo. Works on free and paid plans. Cost: 1 credit per successful lookup. Returns { currency, country_metadata }: currency code/name/symbol plus country calling_code, tld, and languages. ip selects the IP used to derive country and currency; omit it for caller IP. force_refresh bypasses cache only when the user asks. Use this tool for currency-only or country-metadata-only requests. If the request needs more IP data, prefer one lookup_ip call with targeted fields/excludes. |
| lookup_network | Read-only network lookup via GET /v3/ipgeo. Paid only. Cost: 1 credit. Returns { network } with route CIDR prefix, connection_type, and is_anycast. ip omitted means caller IP. force_refresh bypasses cache and makes a fresh upstream request only when the user asks. Use this for network-only requests; use lookup_ip once if the request also needs location, ASN/company, timezone, currency, security, or abuse. |
| check_security | Read-only security lookup via GET /v3/security. Paid only. Cost: 2 credits. Use only for security/threat data; use lookup_ip with include=security when the same request also needs location, ASN/company, network, timezone, currency, or abuse. Returns { ip, security } with threat_score, VPN, proxy, residential proxy, Tor, relay, anonymity, bot, spam, known attacker, and cloud-provider fields; provider names, confidence scores, and last_seen dates appear when available. fields/excludes use comma-separated security.* dot paths; ip is always returned. force_refresh bypasses cache only when the user asks. Call once per IP target and post-process locally. |
| bulk_security_check | Read-only bulk security lookup via POST /v3/security-bulk. Paid only. Cost: 2 credits per valid IP. This MCP server accepts up to 1,000 IPs; private, bogon, and malformed IPs are not billed. Use for security-only batches; use bulk_lookup_ip with include=security when each IP also needs geolocation or other IP domains. Returns one { ip, security } result per valid IP. fields/excludes use security.* dot paths per item. force_refresh bypasses cache only when the user asks. |
| get_timezone | Read-only timezone lookup via GET /v3/timezone. Works on free and paid plans. Cost: 1 credit. Use when the user asks for one place, IP, airport, UN/LOCODE, or IANA timezone current local time or metadata; use convert_timezone for source-to-destination conversion. Returns { time_zone } plus selector context such as location, airport, city, or ip. time_zone includes the zone name, current time, UTC offsets, date/time variants, abbreviations, and DST status/transition fields when available. Selector priority is tz, lat/long, location, ip, iata_code, icao_code, then lo_code. lat and long must be provided together. lang only changes location fields; non-English lang is paid-only and returns 401 on free plans. |
| convert_timezone | Read-only time conversion via GET /v3/timezone/convert. Works on free and paid plans. Cost: 1 credit. Use only when the user provides one source selector and one destination selector; use get_timezone for a single place's current time or metadata. Source/destination selectors are tz_from/tz_to, location_from/location_to, iata_from/iata_to, icao_from/icao_to, locode_from/locode_to, or lat_from+long_from and lat_to+long_to. time is optional and must be yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm or yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss. Returns original time, converted time, diff_hour, and diff_min. |
| get_astronomy | Read-only single-date astronomy lookup via GET /v3/astronomy. Works on free and paid plans. Cost: 1 credit. Use for one date or real-time sun/moon position; use get_astronomy_time_series for daily sunrise, moon, and twilight data across a date range. Returns { location, astronomy } plus ip for IP/caller lookups. astronomy includes date/current_time, sunrise/sunset, moonrise/moonset, twilight blocks, day_length, sun/moon position, distance, status, moon_phase, moon_illumination_percentage, and moon_angle. Selector priority is lat/long, location, ip, then caller IP when no selector is provided. lat and long must be provided together; date must be YYYY-MM-DD; elevation must be 0-10000 meters. time_zone changes timestamp formatting to include full dates. lang only changes location fields; non-English lang is paid-only and returns 401 on free plans. |
| get_astronomy_time_series | Read-only daily astronomy series via GET /v3/astronomy/timeSeries. Works on free and paid plans. Cost: 1 credit per request. Use for date ranges up to 90 days; use get_astronomy for one date or real-time sun/moon position. Returns { location, astronomy: [...] } with one daily item per date containing sunrise/sunset, moonrise/moonset, twilight blocks, day_length, sun/moon status, and moon_phase. Selector priority is lat/long, location, ip, then caller IP when no selector is provided. dateStart and dateEnd are required YYYY-MM-DD values with a maximum 90-day span. lat and long must be provided together; elevation must be 0-10000 meters. time_zone changes timestamp formatting to include full dates. lang only changes location fields; non-English lang is paid-only and returns 401 on free plans. force_refresh bypasses cache and makes a fresh upstream request only when the user asks. |
| lookup_asn | Read-only ASN enrichment via GET /v3/asn. Paid only. Cost: 1 credit. Query by asn or ip; asn takes priority over ip. Use for ASN relationships, route prefixes, allocation details, or WHOIS; use lookup_ip for basic ASN with geolocation. Returns { asn } core fields plus included peers, downstreams, upstreams, routes, or whois_response. include accepts those five values. fields/excludes accept full asn.* paths or root-relative paths such as upstreams.as_number. force_refresh bypasses cache only when the user asks. |
| get_abuse_contact | Read-only abuse contact lookup via GET /v3/abuse. Paid only. Cost: 1 credit. Use only for abuse contact data; use lookup_ip with include=abuse when the same IP also needs location, security, ASN/company, timezone, network, or currency. Returns { ip, abuse } with route, country, name, organization, kind, address, emails, and phone_numbers for reporting abuse. fields/excludes use comma-separated abuse.* paths such as abuse.emails; ip is always returned. force_refresh bypasses cache only when the user asks. Call once per IP target and post-process locally. |
| parse_user_agent | Read-only custom user-agent parsing via POST /v3/user-agent. Paid only for POST payload parsing. Cost: 1 credit per successful string. Parses only the explicit uaString value; it cannot read caller headers or transport metadata. Returns { user_agent_string, name, type, version, version_major, device, engine, operating_system }. Type fields can identify desktop/mobile clients, robots, malformed or scripted strings, anonymized strings, or unknown values. uaString must be the exact non-empty user-agent string; empty/null strings return upstream 400. force_refresh bypasses cache only when the user asks. Use bulk_parse_user_agent for multiple strings. |
| bulk_parse_user_agent | Read-only bulk user-agent parsing via POST /v3/user-agent-bulk. Paid only. Cost: 1 credit per successful string. This MCP server accepts up to 1,000 explicit user-agent strings. Returns one parsed object per string with user_agent_string, name, type, version, version_major, device, engine, and operating_system. uaStrings must be a non-empty array of exact user-agent strings; empty/null strings return upstream 400. Use parse_user_agent for one string. force_refresh bypasses cache only when the user asks. |
