`check_ip`

Pack: ipqualityscore · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/ipqualityscore/mcp

Fraud detection & risk scoring for an IP address. Answers “is this IP a proxy, VPN, or Tor exit node?”, flags bots/crawlers and recent abuse, and returns a 0-100 fraud score plus geolocation (country, region, city, ISP, connection type). Example: check_ip({ ip: “8.8.8.8”, strictness: 1 }) Requires your own IPQualityScore API key, passed as _apiKey.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`ip`	string	yes	IPv4 or IPv6 address to check, e.g. “8.8.8.8”
`strictness`	number	no	Detection strictness 0, 1, or 2. Higher = more aggressive proxy/VPN detection (more false positives). Default 1.
`_apiKey`	string	yes	Your own IPQualityScore API key (BYO — Pipeworx does not supply one). Free tier at ipqualityscore.com; the key is on the account dashboard.
