ip-lookup
Look up IP addresses and your own public IP with zero API keys — geolocation, ISP/ASN, and hosting flags via ip-api.com and ipify through curl. Use when asked what's my public IP, where is this IP from, whose network is this address, or is this IP a VPN/datacenter. Produces the lookup with ISP, ASN, and location fields interpreted honestly (city-level accuracy caveats included), and the rerunnable command.
npx skills add mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills --skill ip-lookup --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.

# IP Lookup Skill "Whose IP is this?" comes up in log triage, abuse reports, debugging, and plain curiosity — and keyless services answer it: ipify for "what's *my* IP," ip-api.com for "what's *that* IP." This skill fetches, reads the fields that matter (ASN and ISP are usually the real answer; city is a guess wearing coordinates), and holds the two honesty lines the domain needs: IP geolocation is approximate, and none of this is a person's identity. ## What This Skill Produces - **The lookup** — country/region/city, ISP, org, ASN, and the proxy/hosting flags where available - **The interpretation** — what the fields actually establish ("a Hetzner datacenter IP in Falkenstein" vs. "a residential Comcast line, roughly Denver") - **Your-own-IP answers** — v4 and v6 when both matter - **The command** — exact curl, rerunnable ## Required Inputs Ask for these if not provided: - **The IP (or "mine")** — v4 or v6; a hostname is fine (it gets resolved first — say so) - **The purpose** — log triage wants the ASN/hosting read; debugging wants "is my egress IP what I think"; abuse-report prep wants the network owner — the interpretation follows it ## Framework: The Calls and the Honesty Line

What does the ip-lookup skill do?
Look up IP addresses and your own public IP with zero API keys — geolocation, ISP/ASN, and hosting flags via ip-api.com and ipify through curl. Use when asked what's my public IP, where is this IP from, whose network is this address, or is this IP a VPN/datacenter. Produces the lookup with ISP, ASN, and location fields interpreted honestly (city-level accuracy caveats included), and the rerunnable command.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills --skill ip-lookup --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills, a repository with 1,255 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
