VS Code nslookup geo_checker

How to: VS Code nslookup geo_checker

client:VS Code transport:streamable-http tool:geo_checker

Add nslookup to VS Code

  1. 01

    Open .vscode/mcp.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "servers": {
    "nslookup": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.nslookup.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart VS Code.

  2. 03

    Ask for something geo_checker does. VS Code lists the server's tools on connect and calls geo_checker itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that nslookup's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Requires agent mode. MCP: Open User Configuration puts the same block in every workspace. VS Code docs

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 24 September 2026. It is what the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.

Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
