Use IP rotation proxies (flareprox and fireprox) to bypass rate limiting, IP bans, and geo-blocking during web security testing. Use only when IPROTATE_ENABLED is set and the target is blocking normal requests. Triggers on "rate limited", "IP banned", "blocked by WAF", "429", "403", "geo-blocked", "rotate IP", "IP rotation", "flareprox", "fireprox".
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# IP Rotation **Activation gate:** Only use this skill when the environment variable `IPROTATE_ENABLED` is set (any value). If unset, do not suggest, reference, or offer IP rotation. Do not ask the user to enable it. The web-security runtime provides two IP rotation backends: - **flareprox** — self-contained Cloudflare Workers proxy (built-in tool, no external install) - **fireprox** — AWS API Gateway proxy (installed at `~/git/fireprox/fire.py`) ## When to Use Use IP rotation when normal testing hits anti-automation defenses: - **Rate limiting:** repeated `429 Too Many Requests` - **IP ban:** sudden `403 Forbidden` or connection drops after sustained testing - **WAF block:** Cloudflare/Akamai/Imperva challenges on automated requests - **Geo-blocking:** target restricts access to specific regions - **High-volume fuzzing:** content discovery that needs IP diversity Do NOT use for: - Routine requests that succeed normally - CORS-sensitive tests (proxies may modify response headers) - Tests that require exact source-IP attribution ## Backend Selection | Backend | Use When | Cost | Target Binding | Notes | |---|---|---|---|---| …

How to install
mdr add dreadnode/capabilities/ip-rotation@sha256:d2030dbdb915d178The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260612.b9379fd, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
