Kiprio MCP

What ForeverTools/kiprio-mcp MCP server does

ForeverTools/kiprio-mcp MCP server connects an MCP client to Kiprio's collection of API-backed utilities. Its 27 tools cover identity and business-data validation, location and time conversion, DNS and certificate inspection, web-page analysis, text processing, and common developer tasks.

Validation tools check email syntax, MX records, disposable domains, international phone numbers, EU VAT numbers, IBANs, and password-breach exposure. The breach check uses k-anonymity and sends only a five-character SHA1 prefix. Network tools inspect DNS records, WHOIS data, SSL certificates, and IP geolocation or threat indicators.

Web tools extract article content, identify technologies, read metadata, render screenshots, and convert HTML to PDF. Text tools handle sentiment, grammar correction, translation, summarization, and PII redaction. Utility tools generate QR codes, hashes, and UUIDs, parse cron expressions, and decode JWT headers and payloads without verifying signatures.

How it works

The package runs as an MCP process and communicates with clients through their MCP configuration. You can launch it directly with uvx kiprio-mcp or install it with pip and run kiprio-mcp. The README lists Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Continue, Windsurf, and Zed configurations, and states that it works with MCP clients generally.

Most operations use Kiprio's service and can run without a third-party API key. An anonymous account is rate-limited to roughly 50–100 requests per day per tool. A registered free key provides 100 requests per day per tool, while the documented Pro tier provides 1,000. convert_timezone is identified as requiring no key.

Setup and configuration

Install without a persistent package installation:

uvx kiprio-mcp

Alternatively, install the package with:

pip install kiprio-mcp

For a client configuration, use uvx as the command with kiprio-mcp as its argument, or use the installed kiprio-mcp executable directly. Set KIPRIO_API_KEY in the MCP server's environment when using a registered key. The README also shows adding the key through a project .env file for Claude Code.

Claude Code can register the server with:

claude mcp add kiprio -- uvx kiprio-mcp

If the executable cannot be found after a pip installation, use the uvx form or provide the full path to the virtual environment's executable. Authentication errors indicate an invalid key; omitting the variable uses the anonymous tier.

Tools and capabilities

The available tools include:

• Validation: validate_email, validate_phone, validate_vat, validate_iban, and check_password_breach.
• Location and time: geocode_address, get_timezone, and convert_timezone.
• Network inspection: dns_lookup, whois_lookup, ssl_check, and ip_lookup.
• Web processing: readability, tech_stack, parse_og_tags, screenshot_url, and html_to_pdf.
• Text processing: sentiment_analysis, check_grammar, translate_text, summarize_text, and redact_text.
• Developer utilities: generate_qr, generate_hash, generate_uuid, parse_cron, and decode_jwt.

Results include structured data where specified, such as certificate metadata, timezone details, structured address components, grammar-edit diffs, and base64-encoded image or PDF output.

Limitations and notes

The service's documented request limits apply per tool and can constrain batch jobs or scheduled automation. The free registered tier does not remove those limits; it raises the allowance compared with anonymous use. decode_jwt reports decoded data and expiry status but does not verify the token. Outputs from screenshot and PDF generation are returned as base64 data, which may be inconvenient for clients or workflows that expect files.
