ipgeolocationapi-mcp

MCP server for ipgeolocationapi.io: IP intelligence as native tools for Claude Desktop, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible AI.

Ask "where is this visitor from, and is the IP a VPN?" and the AI fetches live data directly. No custom code.

Install (30 seconds)

Add to claude_desktop_config.json (Claude Desktop > Settings > Developer):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ipgeolocationapi": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "ipgeolocationapi-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "IPGEO_API_KEY": "ipa_optional_paid_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop. Done. The first run creates a small Python runtime (one time); Linux ships with a compatible Python by default; on macOS install Python 3.10+ from python.org or Homebrew if the wrapper cannot find one.

Cursor and other MCP hosts: same shape, point the command at this package.
