cloudflare-mcp

A tiny TypeScript MCP server to manage a Cloudflare zone through the Cloudflare API: DNS records, cloudflared tunnels and Email Routing. Zone-agnostic: point it at any zone via env vars.

Requirements

  • Node.js 18+

  • A Cloudflare API token. Permissions by feature:

    • DNS tools → Zone:DNS:Edit (+ Zone:Read to resolve the zone by name)

    • Tunnel tools → Account:Cloudflare Tunnel:Edit (+ Account:Account Settings:Read to auto-resolve the account id)

    • Email Routing rules → Zone:Email Routing Rules:Edit (:Read is enough for the read-only tools)

    • Email Routing destinations → Account:Email Routing Addresses:Edit

Configuration

Variable

Description

CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN

Cloudflare API token (see permissions above)

CLOUDFLARE_ZONE_ID

The 32-char hex Zone ID or the zone name (e.g. example.com). A name is resolved to its id at startup (needs Zone:Read).

CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID

Optional. Account id for tunnel tools. Auto-resolved from the token if omitted (needs Account:Read).

Copy .env.example to .env and fill it in. Never commit .env.

Scripts

npm install
npm run build   # emit dist/
npm run dev     # tsx src/index.ts (stdio)
npm start       # node dist/index.js

Tools

Tool

Description

dns_list

List all DNS records in the zone (optional type filter: A, CNAME, MX, TXT…)

dns_get

Get a record by name (e.g. app.example.com)

dns_create

Create a record (type, name, content, proxied, ttl)

dns_update

Update content/proxy of an existing record by name

dns_delete

Delete a record by name

tunnel_list

List cloudflared tunnels in the account

tunnel_create

Create a remotely-managed tunnel (idempotent by name); returns its run token

tunnel_token

Get the run token for an existing tunnel

tunnel_configure

Set a tunnel's public-hostname ingress (hostname → local service)

tunnel_delete

Delete a tunnel by name

email_routing_status

Whether Email Routing is enabled on the zone

email_rules_list

List routing rules — which @zone addresses forward where, catch-all included

email_rule_create

Forward an address on the zone to a verified destination

email_destinations_list

List the account's destination addresses and whether each is verified

email_destination_add

Add a destination address (Cloudflare emails it a verification link)

Stand up a tunnel end-to-end

tunnel_create   name=my-dev                                   → returns id + token
tunnel_configure name=my-dev hostname=dev.example.com service=http://localhost:8770
dns_create      type=CNAME name=dev.example.com content=<id>.cfargotunnel.com
# then run it locally (no cert.pem needed):
#   TUNNEL_TOKEN=<token> cloudflared tunnel run

Forward an address end-to-end

email_destination_add   email=you@gmail.com        → verification link sent (click it)
email_rule_create       address=hello destination=you@gmail.com
email_rules_list                                   → confirm hello@example.com → you@gmail.com

A destination must be verified before a rule can forward to it, and the zone needs Email Routing enabled (the dashboard wizard adds the MX/SPF/DKIM records).

Example (via an MCP client)

dns_list                                → all records
dns_get    name=app.example.com         → inspect one record
dns_create type=CNAME name=dev.example.com content=<tunnel-id>.cfargotunnel.com
dns_update name=dev.example.com proxied=true
dns_delete name=old.example.com

Use as an MCP server

Point your MCP client at the built or dev entrypoint over stdio, passing the two env vars. Example (generic MCP config):

{
  "command": "npx",
  "args": ["-y", "tsx", "/absolute/path/to/cloudflare-mcp/src/index.ts"],
  "env": {
    "CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN": "<your-token>",
    "CLOUDFLARE_ZONE_ID": "example.com"
  }
}
