- Remote Configuration — Retrieve and update ingress rules and origin settings for remotely-managed tunnels without touching the CLI.
- Network Routing — Manage private network routes (CIDR) and IP-based routing to connect your internal resources securely.
- Connection Monitoring — Inspect active connectors, list tunnel connections, and clean up stale sessions to ensure high availability.
- Lifecycle Actions — Create new tunnels, update secrets, or delete decommissioned tunnels directly from your workspace.
How it works

Frequently asked questions
Can I update the ingress rules for a remotely managed tunnel?
Yes. Use the put_configuration tool to update the ingress rules and origin request settings for any tunnel that is configured for remote management.
How do I check if my tunnels are currently online?
You can use list_tunnels with the status parameter set to 'healthy' to see active tunnels, or use get_tunnel with a specific ID to see its current operational state.
Can I manage private network routes through this integration?
Yes. The server includes tools like list_routes, create_route, and delete_route to manage your Cloudflare Tunnel network routing (WARP-to-Tunnel).
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.
Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?
Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.
How do I list all connected MCP servers?
Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
