kiprio MCP Server

July 30, 2026 · View on GitHub

27 production API tools for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Continue, and any MCP client — email/phone validation, geocoding, timezone conversion, DNS/WHOIS, SSL inspection, web scraping, NLP, and developer utilities.

No third-party API keys required. Free tier included. Powered by kiprio.com.

Quick install

No install needed — run it straight from PyPI with uv:

uvx kiprio-mcp

Or install with pip:

pip install kiprio-mcp

Claude Code — add to your project in one step:

claude mcp add kiprio -- uvx kiprio-mcp
# or, if installed via pip:
claude mcp add kiprio -- kiprio-mcp

Or add to ~/.claude.json / Claude Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf / Zed:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kiprio": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["kiprio-mcp"],
      "env": {"KIPRIO_API_KEY": "your_key_here"}
    }
  }
}

(If you installed via pip instead, use "command": "kiprio-mcp" with no args.)

Cline (VS Code) — open Cline → MCP Servers → Add Server → paste:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kiprio": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["kiprio-mcp"],
      "env": {"KIPRIO_API_KEY": "your_key_here"}
    }
  }
}

Continue.dev — add to ~/.continue/config.json under mcpServers:

{
  "mcpServers": [
    {
      "name": "kiprio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["kiprio-mcp"],
      "env": {"KIPRIO_API_KEY": "your_key_here"}
    }
  ]
}

The anonymous tier is rate-limited to 50–100 requests/day per tool — fine for one-off queries, but it runs out fast in any automated workflow.

A free registered key gives you 100 req/day per tool at zero cost:

👉 kiprio.com/signup — no credit card, no trial period.

What you can do

Once connected, ask Claude naturally:

"Is noreply@company.io a real deliverable address?" → validate_email checks syntax, MX records, and disposable domain lists

"What tech stack is stripe.com running?" → tech_stack returns CMS, CDN, analytics, and payment providers

"Take a screenshot of this landing page and flag any broken layout." → screenshot_url returns a base64 PNG Claude can analyse directly

"Redact all PII from this support transcript before I send it to Zendesk." → redact_text replaces emails, phones, names, and card numbers with [REDACTED_TYPE]

"Check the SSL certificate on api.example.com — is it expiring soon?" → ssl_check returns expiry date, issuer, and grade

Building an automated agent?

kiprio tools are designed for pipelines and hooks, not just one-shot queries. Common patterns:

Email validation before accepting signups:

User submits email
→ Claude: validate_email("user@example.com")
→ If disposable/invalid → reject early, before DB write

Domain monitoring hook (Claude Code slash command):

# Add to CLAUDE.md as a custom slash command
/check-ssl  →  ssl_check on all domains in config/domains.txt

Lead enrichment agent:

CSV of company domains
→ Claude loops: tech_stack() + whois_lookup() + ip_lookup() per row
→ Output: enriched CSV with stack, registrar, country, hosting provider

Content moderation pipeline:

User-submitted text
→ sentiment_analysis() to flag negative
→ redact_text() to strip PII before logging

These patterns work within the free key tier (100 req/day per tool). Pro tier (1,000/day) handles larger batches.

When to upgrade to Pro

Batch processing — validating 500 emails, enriching a CSV, running a link audit
Scheduled agents — Claude Code hooks that fire on every commit or cron job
Team workspaces — multiple developers sharing one config
Production scripts — slash commands that run on every file save or PR

Upgrade to Pro at kiprio.com →

Claude Code setup

claude mcp add kiprio -- uvx kiprio-mcp
claude mcp list   # should show kiprio

Or with a pip install:

pip install kiprio-mcp
claude mcp add kiprio -- kiprio-mcp

With API key in your project .env:

echo "KIPRIO_API_KEY=your_key" >> .env

Then reference in your MCP config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kiprio": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["kiprio-mcp"],
      "env": {"KIPRIO_API_KEY": "${KIPRIO_API_KEY}"}
    }
  }
}

Troubleshooting

kiprio-mcp: command not found / spawn kiprio-mcp ENOENT — the bare kiprio-mcp command only exists after a pip install. Either switch your config to "command": "uvx", "args": ["kiprio-mcp"] (no install needed), or point at the full path from your virtualenv:

"command": "/path/to/venv/bin/kiprio-mcp"

429 Rate limit exceeded — free anonymous tier hit. Register at kiprio.com/signup for 100 req/day free, or upgrade to Pro for 1,000/day.

401/403 errors — API key invalid. Leave KIPRIO_API_KEY empty to use the anonymous tier (30 req/day).
