Need help please. How can I achieve the following?

I use https://spur.us/context website to investigate IP addresses. Currently I am having to copy IP address from a website and paste manually in the spur.us website which is time consuming. I want to make this process quicker.

How can I just select an IP address like shows in below image and open in separate website by attaching the copied content like https://spur.us/context/20.238.65.64

enter image description here

Is there any tool/extensions I can use or setting within browser?

TIA

Is it that you need to navigate to https://spur.us/context/20.238.65.64 by only selecting 20.238.65.64 and performing some sort of action within a single page? It looks like the context menu wouldn't help (the browser would directly lead you to this ip address instead of searching for it), but you can achieve it by specifying your own search engine. Please go to the following url for search engine setting.

Edge: edge://settings/searchEngines?search=engine

Chrome: chrome://settings/searchEngines?search=search+engine

You can add spur.us as a search engine. You need to choose Make default after adding it and make sure your search engine url looks like this: https://spur.us/context/%s

Then, you need to

  1. Copy the ip address.
  2. Press Ctrl+E to call the default search engine.
  3. Paste the ip address.

Now you will be able to see the expected result. Though it may not be exactly what you've asked for, I think it does smooth the work flow. Remember to make default your previous default search engine after the work is finished.
