mcp-cloudflare-dns
Cloudflare DNS MCP server. Manage zones, DNS records, cache, and page rules from Claude, Cursor, Codex, or any MCP-compatible AI assistant.
# Install: uvx mcp-cloudflare-dns
# Ask your AI:
"List all DNS records for example.com"
"Add a CNAME record pointing api.example.com to my-app.vercel.app"
"Purge the cache for https://example.com/products"
"What page rules are active on example.com?"
Why this one?
The official Cloudflare MCP covers Workers, KV, D1, and R2 — but has zero DNS tools. This server fills that gap.
| Feature | This server | Official CF MCP |
|---|---|---|
| DNS record CRUD | Yes | No |
| Zone listing | Yes | No |
| Cache purge | Yes | No |
| Page rules | Yes | No |
| Zone settings | Yes | No |
| Workers/KV/D1/R2 | No | Yes |
They complement each other — use both.
Quickstart
1. Get a Cloudflare API token — dash.cloudflare.com/profile/api-tokens → Create Token → use "Edit zone DNS" template
2. Add to your MCP client config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"cloudflare-dns": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["mcp-cloudflare-dns"],
"env": {
"CF_API_TOKEN": "your-cloudflare-api-token"
}
}
}
}
3. Restart your AI client. Done.
