What is the Cloudflare Tunnel MCP Server?
Connect your Cloudflare account to any AI agent to take full control of your Zero Trust connectivity and private network routing through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Tunnel Management — List all tunnels in your account, filter by status (healthy, degraded, down), and fetch detailed metadata for specific tunnels.
- 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
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Cloudflare API Token (with Cloudflare Tunnel permissions)
- Start managing your secure tunnels from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- DevOps Engineers — quickly check tunnel health and update ingress rules during deployments without leaving the terminal or IDE.
- Security Teams — audit active tunnels and network routes to ensure compliance with Zero Trust policies.
- System Administrators — automate the cleanup of stale connections and monitor the status of remote connectors across multiple accounts.

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 does Windsurf discover MCP tools?
Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.
Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?
Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.
Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
