About Ripe Stat

Ripe Stat is an MCP server for querying IP, ASN, and BGP data from RIPE NCC sources, aimed at network operations and research. It covers registration, routing, geolocation, and abuse contacts, and can also run locally over stdio.

Key features

  1. 01Look up WHOIS for IPs, prefixes, and ASNs
  2. 02View registration details and ASN summaries
  3. 03Query BGP state and neighbors
  4. 04Retrieve geolocation and abuse contacts

Use cases

  1. 01Verify registration and holder details for an IP or ASN
  2. 02Inspect an ASN's BGP neighbors and routing state
  3. 03Find the location of an IP or prefix
  4. 04Locate abuse contacts for an IP or ASN

MCP support

Exposes RIPE Stat query tools to MCP clients through the Pipeworx gateway or as a local stdio MCP server. The gateway endpoint also includes shared meta-tools.

Configuration

Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

Tools

Details

From the project README

@pipeworx/ripe-stat

RIPE Stat MCP — IP/ASN/BGP intelligence from RIPE NCC's data sources. RIPE region focused but covers global routing data. No auth.

Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1683+ live data sources.

Tools

  • whois(resource) — whois data for IP/prefix/ASN
  • network_info(resource) — RIR registration, holder, prefix size
  • as_overview(asn) — ASN summary
  • asn_neighbours(asn) — BGP neighbours of an AS
  • bgp_state(resource) — current BGP routing state
  • abuse_contact(resource) — abuse contact for an IP/ASN
  • geoloc(resource) — country location of an IP/prefix
  • prefix_overview(prefix) — full intel on a prefix

Data source

https://stat.ripe.net/data/<endpoint>/data.json?resource=<r> — public, no auth.

Quick Start

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ripe-stat": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/ripe-stat/mcp"
    }
  }
}
What this endpoint actually serves

tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/ripe-stat/mcp returns the tools in the table above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-tools — ask_pipeworx, discover_tools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and is the authoritative answer for a given day.

This is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a scoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via ask_pipeworx, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a second MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without them; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth, connect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed directly, instead of just this one's:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Both URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1683+ data sources. The only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx reaches all of them from either one.

No MCP client? Call it over HTTP

curl -X POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/ripe_stat_whois \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"resource":"8.8.8.8"}'

No account needed for the first calls. Inspect any tool: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/ripe_stat_whois. Find one: POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/search_packs with {"query":"..."}.

Standalone (no gateway account)

This package also runs as a local stdio MCP server — no Pipeworx account, no gateway round-trip:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ripe-stat": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@pipeworx/mcp-ripe-stat"]
    }
  }
}

Or run it directly to confirm it starts:

npx -y @pipeworx/mcp-ripe-stat

It speaks MCP over stdin/stdout and answers initialize/tools/list/tools/call for only this pack's tools — none of the shared meta-tools the gateway connection above adds. Same source, same tools, no ask_pipeworx routing.

Using with ask_pipeworx

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English — this works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Ripe Stat data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.

New to MCP?

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
