About Cloudflare Alternative MCP Server
Connect your Cloudflare account to any AI agent and take full control of your DNS, edge computing, CDN and security infrastructure through natural conversation.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Cloudflare Alternative tool calls autonomously — query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste the Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 15 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.
What you can do
- DNS Management — List, create, update and delete DNS records (A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT) with full control over TTL, priority and Cloudflare proxy status
- Zone Discovery — View all domains managed by Cloudflare with their plan type, SSL status, name server assignment and activation state
- Workers Inventory — List all deployed serverless Worker scripts with their last deployment timestamps and binding configurations
- KV Storage — Browse KV namespaces, read and write key-value pairs for Worker configuration, feature flags and edge-cached data
- Pages Projects — View all Cloudflare Pages deployments with their Git source, production branch and build status
- Firewall Audit — Review all WAF (Web Application Firewall) rules including filter expressions, actions (block, challenge, allow) and enabled status
- Load Balancer Health — Inspect load balancer configurations, origin pools, health check status and traffic steering policies
- CDN Analytics — View traffic analytics including request counts, bandwidth, threat mitigation, cache ratio and visitor statistics
- IP Range Lookup — Retrieve Cloudflare's complete IP address ranges for origin firewall allow-listing
The Cloudflare Alternative MCP Server exposes 15 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Windsurf in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Cloudflare Alternative MCP Tools for Windsurf (15)
These 15 tools become available when you connect Cloudflare Alternative to Windsurf via MCP:
create_dns_record
Requires the record type (A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, etc.), name (hostname) and content (IP address, target hostname, etc.). Optionally set TTL and whether to proxy through Cloudflare CDN (proxied=true enables the orange cloud). Create a new DNS record in a Cloudflare zone
delete_dns_record
Provide the zone ID and DNS record ID. This action cannot be undone — the record will be immediately removed from Cloudflare nameservers. Delete a DNS record from a Cloudflare zone
get_kv_value
Useful for reading Worker configuration, feature flags, cached API responses or session data. Provide the namespace ID and the key name. Get a value from a Cloudflare KV namespace
get_zone
Provide the zone ID. Get details for a specific Cloudflare zone
get_zone_analytics
Use to audit CDN performance, identify traffic spikes and review threat mitigation. Get analytics data for a Cloudflare zone
list_cloudflare_ips
Useful for configuring allow-lists, firewall rules and origin server access control to only permit traffic from Cloudflare proxies. List Cloudflare IP address ranges
list_dns_records
) configured for a specific zone. Each record has a type, name, content, TTL and proxied status (whether traffic goes through Cloudflare CDN). Optionally filter by record type (e.g. "A" for IPv4 addresses only). List DNS records for a Cloudflare zone
list_firewall_rules
Each rule defines a filter expression (e.g. "ip.src in {1.2.3.4}") and an action (block, challenge, allow, log, js_challenge). Use to audit your web application firewall configuration. List firewall rules for a Cloudflare zone
list_kv_namespaces
KV namespaces are used by Workers for edge-cached data, configuration and session storage. Each namespace has an ID and title. Use the namespace ID to read/write key-value pairs. List Cloudflare KV namespaces
list_load_balancers
Cloudflare Load Balancing distributes traffic across multiple origin servers or regions based on health checks, geolocation and steering policies. Each load balancer has a name, target pools, fallback pool and health status. List load balancers for a Cloudflare zone
list_pages_projects
Cloudflare Pages is a full-stack hosting platform that connects to Git repositories and deploys static/SSG sites. Each project has a name, Git source, production branch and deployment count. List Cloudflare Pages projects
list_workers
Workers are serverless JavaScript/Wasm functions that run at Cloudflare edge locations. Each worker has a name, last deployment timestamp, resource usage and optional bindings (KV, R2, D1). Provide the account ID (found in Cloudflare dashboard URL). List Cloudflare Workers scripts
list_zones
Each zone represents a domain that uses Cloudflare DNS and CDN services, with status (active, pending), plan type and verification status. Use the zone ID for subsequent DNS, firewall and analytics queries. List all Cloudflare zones (domains)
put_kv_value
Workers use this for edge-cached data, feature flags and configuration. Provide the namespace ID, key name and the value to store. The value can be any text (JSON, plain text, etc.). Write a value to a Cloudflare KV namespace
update_dns_record
Provide the zone ID and record ID, then any fields to change: name, content, TTL or proxied status. Only the fields you provide will be updated. Update an existing DNS record
