How to Use the Cloudflare Tunnel MCP in Windsurf
Use Windsurf to spin up secure tunnels and manage your infrastructure routes without leaving the IDE.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Cloudflare Tunnel MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect Cloudflare Tunnel to Windsurf and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Full Tunnel Lifecycle for Windsurf
Cascade handles the heavy lifting of tunnel creation. You just describe the network goal, and it invokes `create_tunnel` to build the infrastructure. It doesn't stop there. The agent uses `update_tunnel` to modify existing setups or `delete_tunnel` if you need to tear down a testing environment.
Manage Routes with Windsurf
Network configuration happens in the chat window. Cascade triggers `create_route` or `update_route` to map your traffic exactly where it needs to go. You can query your current setup using `list_routes` to see what is live. It makes tracking your internal IPs trivial.
Cleanup and Maintenance for Windsurf
Forgotten connections clutter your console. Use `cleanup_connections` to prune dead links or `list_connections` to verify active tunnels. This MCP Server gives Cascade the visibility it needs. It pulls connector details with `get_connector` so you know exactly what is running on your network.
