# IPinfo Geolocation

Free IP geolocation API. No API key required for basic usage (50k requests/month), optional token for higher limits.

## Configuration

The `IPINFO_TOKEN` environment variable is **optional** - the skill works without it using the free tier. Configure it via the OpenClaw dashboard UI for higher rate limits, or set it manually:

- **Dashboard UI**: Configure `IPINFO_TOKEN` in the OpenClaw dashboard (optional)
- **Environment variable**: `export IPINFO_TOKEN="your-token"`
- **Query parameter**: `?token=YOUR_TOKEN` (for one-off requests)

## Quick Lookup

Single IP:

```bash
curl -s "https://ipinfo.io/8.8.8.8"
```

Current IP:

```bash
curl -s "https://ipinfo.io/json"
```

With token (optional, from environment):

```bash
curl -s "https://ipinfo.io/8.8.8.8?token=${IPINFO_TOKEN}"
```

Or pass token directly:

```bash
curl -s "https://ipinfo.io/8.8.8.8?token=YOUR_TOKEN"
```

## Response Format

JSON response includes:

- `ip`: IP address
- `hostname`: Reverse DNS hostname
- `city`: City name
- `region`: State/region
- `country`: Two-letter country code (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2)
- `postal`: Postal/ZIP code
- `timezone`: IANA timezone

## Extract Specific Fields

Using `jq`:

```bash
curl -s "https://ipinfo.io/8.8.8.8" | jq -r '.city, .country, .loc'
```

Country only:

```bash
curl -s "https://ipinfo.io/8.8.8.8" | jq -r '.country'

Parse coordinates:

```bash
curl -s "https://ipinfo.io/8.8.8.8" | jq -r '.loc' | tr ',' '\n'
