This project provides a simple shell script to check if an IP address can access OpenAI services, primarily for users experiencing access issues. It supports checking both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses across 163 countries, offering a quick diagnostic tool for network connectivity to OpenAI.

How It Works

The script leverages Cloudflare's detection mechanisms to determine IP address accessibility to OpenAI. This approach outsources the core detection logic to Cloudflare, aiming for accuracy independent of the script itself. The script then formats and displays the results, indicating whether the IP is supported and its associated region.
