## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `ip` | string | no | IP address to look up (omit for auto-detect). |

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "country_by_ip",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why country_by_ip is rated Low

This is a straightforward data retrieval tool that queries a geolocation service (country.is) to determine the country associated with an IP address. It has no side effects, makes no modifications, executes no code, and poses minimal risk if misused—the worst outcome would be providing an AI agent with geolocation metadata for an IP, which is informational only.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'country_by_ip' and description 'Detect country from an IP address' indicate a lookup/query operation that retrieves geolocation data without modifying or executing anything."

## Use case

AI agents call country_by_ip to retrieve information from UnClick without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches UnClick:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "country_by_ip": {}
  }
}
```
