MCP Server

Use ipbase with AI agents (MCP)

ipbase ships a hosted Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. AI agents and assistants — Claude, Cursor, VS Code and any other MCP-capable client — can call the API as native tools, no SDK or glue code required.

https://api.ipbase.com/mcp

Connect in seconds

Using Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http ipbase https://api.ipbase.com/mcp --header "apikey: YOUR_API_KEY"

Or add it to any MCP client configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ipbase": {
      "url": "https://api.ipbase.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "apikey": "YOUR_API_KEY" }
    }
  }
}

Without a key, the server answers up to 10 requests per IP address and hour: the MCP handshake, listing the tools, and the getInfo and getStatus tools, so you can try a lookup right away. The other tools need a key: sign up for a free API key and send it as the apikey header.

Available tools

Tool	Endpoint	Description
`getInfo`	`GET /v2/info`	Look up an IP address
`batchInfo`	`POST /v2/batch`	Look up many IP addresses at once
`getAsn`	`GET /v2/asns`	Look up an ASN
`getDomains`	`GET /v2/domains`	Domains hosted on an IP
`getStatus`	`GET /v2/status`	Account quota status

Tool calls are metered like regular API requests and return the same machine-readable errors, so your agent always knows how to proceed. Full details in the MCP documentation.
