# geolocate_ip A read tool on the GadgetHumans API Hub MCP server. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `geolocate_ip`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/geolocate-ip ## Facts - Tool: `geolocate_ip` - Server: GadgetHumans API Hub (`pypi:gadgethumans-api-hub-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub.md - Install: `npx -y pypi:gadgethumans-api-hub-mcp` - Homepage: https://github.com/scotia1973-bot/api-hub - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "geolocate_ip", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why geolocate_ip is rated Low Geolocating an IP is a read operation that queries and returns location information without modifying or deleting data. However, severity is medium rather than low because IP geolocation data can be used for reconnaissance, tracking, or targeting in a multi-step attack, giving it moderate blast radius if misused by an AI agent. From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'geolocate_ip' indicates it retrieves geographic location data associated with an IP address. No description provided, but the function name strongly suggests a data lookup operation with no state modification." ## Use case AI agents call geolocate_ip to retrieve information from GadgetHumans API Hub 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 GadgetHumans API Hub: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "geolocate_ip": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on GadgetHumans API Hub (310) - `clean_whitespace` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/clean-whitespace.md - `gravitational_force_calc` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/gravitational-force-calc.md - `atbash_cipher` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/atbash-cipher.md - `caesar_cipher` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/caesar-cipher.md - `crawl_website` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/crawl-website.md - `electrical_calc` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/electrical-calc.md - `evaluate_math` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/evaluate-math.md - `filter_data` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/filter-data.md - `fn` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/fn.md - `generate_password` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/generate-password.md - `hash_text` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/hash-text.md - `http_client` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/http-client.md - `ini_to_json` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/ini-to-json.md - `matrix_operations` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/matrix-operations.md - `momentum_calc` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/momentum-calc.md - `pressure_calc` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/pressure-calc.md - `ratio_calc` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/ratio-calc.md - `test_regex` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/test-regex.md - `web_scrape` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/web-scrape.md - `agent_memory` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/agent-memory.md - `generate_ulids` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/generate-ulids.md - `alternating_case` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/alternating-case.md - `amortization_calc` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/amortization-calc.md - `anagram_check` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/anagram-check.md - `analyze_tone` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/analyze-tone.md - `analyze_url` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/analyze-url.md - `angle_convert` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/angle-convert.md - `area_convert` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/area-convert.md - `ascii_table` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/ascii-table.md - `auto_loan_calc` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/auto-loan-calc.md - …and 280 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
