workspace/skills/gtrace-ip-enrichment/SKILL.md
IP address enrichment — ASN ownership lookup, geolocation (city/region/country/coordinates), and reverse DNS resolution. Use when identifying who owns an IP address, locating an IP geographically, resolving reverse DNS for a traceroute hop, or enriching unknown IPs from logs or flow data.

python3 $MCP_CALL "gtrace mcp" TOOL_NAME '{"param":"value"}'
| Tool | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| asn_lookup | Look up ASN, organization, and network range for an IP |
| geo_lookup | Get geographic location (city, region, country, lat/lon) for an IP |
| reverse_dns | Resolve an IP to its PTR record (reverse DNS hostname) |
When asked "who owns this IP?" or "where is this IP?":
Identify the Autonomous System and organization that owns the IP.
python3 $MCP_CALL "gtrace mcp" asn_lookup '{"ip":"8.8.8.8"}'
Returns: ASN number, organization name, network CIDR, registry (ARIN, RIPE, APNIC, etc.)
Determine the physical location of the IP.
python3 $MCP_CALL "gtrace mcp" geo_lookup '{"ip":"8.8.8.8"}'
Returns: City, region/state, country, latitude/longitude, timezone
Resolve the IP to its PTR record for hostname identification.
python3 $MCP_CALL "gtrace mcp" reverse_dns '{"ip":"8.8.8.8"}'
Returns: PTR hostname (e.g., dns.google)
After running a traceroute (via gtrace-path-analysis skill), enrich each hop with ASN and geo data:
traceroute to get the path with hop IPsasn_lookup to identify the network ownergeo_lookup to map physical locationreverse_dns on hops to identify router naming conventions (often reveals ISP, POP location, interface type)# Example: enrich a traceroute hop
python3 $MCP_CALL "gtrace mcp" asn_lookup '{"ip":"72.14.215.85"}'
python3 $MCP_CALL "gtrace mcp" geo_lookup '{"ip":"72.14.215.85"}'
python3 $MCP_CALL "gtrace mcp" reverse_dns '{"ip":"72.14.215.85"}'
When investigating BGP peers or routes:
bgp_get_peers (protocol-participation skill)asn_lookup to verify the peer's ASN matches what BGP reportsgeo_lookup to confirm the peer's physical locationreverse_dns to identify the peer's hostname and operatorip (required): IPv4 or IPv6 address to look upip (required): IPv4 or IPv6 address to geolocateip (required): IPv4 or IPv6 address to resolvetools
Federate your NetClaw with other NetClaw operators over the BGP mesh — exchange capability inventories and ask your claw what a peer can do. (US1; remote invocation and chat land in later phases.)

testing
Human-in-the-loop escalation via HumanRail — route low-confidence agent decisions, pre-destructive operation approvals, and ambiguous incident tickets to real human engineers. Human answers are verified and returned as structured output. Workers are paid via Lightning Network. Use when the agent is uncertain, when a destructive change needs explicit human sign-off beyond a ServiceNow CR, or when an ambiguous ticket requires human triage before automated handling.
testing
IPv4 and IPv6 subnet calculator - CIDR breakdown, usable hosts, previous/next subnets, address classification, VLSM planning, and dual-stack analysis. Use when calculating subnets, figuring out how many hosts fit in a prefix, planning IP addressing, getting wildcard masks for ACLs, or checking if two IPs are in the same subnet.
