## Description

IP-MCP-Server provides a simple tool for obtaining the public IP address of the current machine through an external API service. Built with FastMCP and httpx, this lightweight server exposes a single asynchronous function that queries ipify.org and returns the IP in JSON format. The implementation runs over stdio transport, making it ideal for integration with AI assistants or applications that need to determine their external network identity without complex configuration.
