Pipeworx iplookup

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a simple IP lookup skill that uses a remote service, so the main issue is privacy awareness rather than hidden or destructive behavior.

Install only if you are comfortable sending queried IP addresses to Pipeworx's remote MCP gateway and likely ip-api.com. Avoid submitting sensitive internal, customer, regulated, or incident-response IP lists unless your organization approves that external processing.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding
The skill routes user-supplied IP addresses to a remote MCP endpoint backed by a third-party lookup service, but the description does not clearly warn users that queried IPs will leave the local environment. This creates a privacy and data-handling risk, especially if users submit internal, customer, or otherwise sensitive IP addresses under the assumption the lookup is local or self-contained.
