Looks up an IP address in IPinfo: host name, location, time zone, network owner and ASN, and whether it is anycast

Run

Through ot mcp, an agent calls run_tool with this; ot asks you before anything that goes online or touches a target. Set it up: ot mcp install claude (or cursor, vscode, codex, gemini).

{"tool":"osintverse-community/ipinfo","target":"8.8.8.8","input_type":"ip"}

Or just say: "Run osintverse-community/ipinfo on 8.8.8.8 with OTInstaller." The registry's read-only MCP server at api.otinstaller.com/mcp can find tools without installing anything.

ot run osintverse-community/ipinfo ip:8.8.8.8 --format table
ot install osintverse-community/ipinfo

Docker image in a read-only container · talks to ipinfo.io · no key · up to 1 min. The first ot run installs the tool after asking once. The example value is the registry's own test input, so this command has run. Drop --format table for JSON.

What this script does
  1. Downloads the latest ot release for your machine from GitHub Releases.
  2. Checks its SHA-256 against checksums.txt, and the Ed25519 signature on that file against the key built into the script.
  3. Puts ot in /usr/local/bin or ~/.local/bin. Nothing else is written. Read the script.

Not health-checked yet; 0.1.0 came out today; nobody has said yet whether it works.

0.1.0 is in its first week. Nobody has said whether it works yet.

ipinfo

Looks up an IP address in IPinfo: its reverse DNS name, city, region and country with coordinates, time zone, the network that owns it and its ASN, and whether it is anycast. Uses IPinfo's official Python client, ipinfo. Only IPinfo's data is read, so the target is not contacted.

ot run osintverse-community/ipinfo --ip 8.8.8.8

Inputs

Input Required
ip yes IPv4 or IPv6 address

Keys

None needed: lookups without a token work at a lower request limit. IPINFO_TOKEN (ot keys set IPINFO_TOKEN), from a free IPinfo account, raises it: https://ipinfo.io/signup. When the limit is reached the tool exits with code 1 and says so.

Notes

A private or reserved address (a "bogon") gives no entities and a note on stderr. The location is where IPinfo places the address, which for networks such as mobile carriers and VPNs can be far from the person using it.

Next steps

Check the address's reputation with osintverse-community/virustotal or osintverse-community/greynoise, or see its services with osintverse-community/censys-host.

Development

pip install ipinfo==5.6.0
