Cloudflare MCP connector

The Cloudflare connector lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP client look up your Cloudflare accounts, zones, members, roles, firewall rules, rule sets, WAF overrides, and audit logs through one governed Elaichi endpoint, inside each person's own access.

  • How it connects. Connects with an API key. The credential goes into a vault nobody reads back.

  • One address. https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, the same for every user.

  • Their own access. An agent never gets more than the person it acts for.

How to connect

How to connect Cloudflare to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor

Two steps, about a minute.

1

In Elaichi

Connect Cloudflare once

  1. Open Connections, choose Add connection, and pick Cloudflare.

  2. Optionally set Share with to give a team access, then press Connect.

  3. Paste a Cloudflare API key. One person generates a token in Cloudflare and pastes it once. Everyone else works through Share with, and never sees it.

The credential is vaulted. Nobody reads it back, not even the AI.

Use cases

What teams do with Cloudflare through Elaichi

Every one of these runs inside the access the person already has, and lands in the same audit log.

  • Security

    Review firewall rules before a change window

    Ask which firewall rules and rule sets are active on a zone and get them read back in plain language before anyone touches production.

  • IT

    Check who still has access to Cloudflare

    List every member across your Cloudflare accounts with their roles, then spot contractors and former staff who should no longer be there.

  • Compliance

    Pull Cloudflare audit history for a review

    When an auditor asks who changed what and when, have the agent read the Cloudflare audit log for the period and summarize it.

  • Support

    Find the zone behind a customer domain

    When a customer says their site is misbehaving, look up the zone it sits in and read its details without opening the Cloudflare dashboard.

  • Engineering

    Compare rule sets across staging and production

    Fetch the rule sets attached to two zones and ask where they differ before a release goes out.

  • Operations

    Inventory every domain across accounts

    List all zones across every Cloudflare account you manage for a quarterly ownership review, in one question instead of account by account.

Try asking

  • “Which zones changed firewall rules in the last week?”
  • “List members with admin roles on our production account.”
  • “Show WAF overrides active across all Cloudflare zones.”

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Cloudflare to Claude?

Connect Cloudflare in Elaichi first, then open Claude, go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. Cloudflare connects with an API key, so the sign-in step is pasting a key from your Cloudflare account into Elaichi. There is no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate.

Does Cloudflare work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once Cloudflare is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any other MCP client, and the Elaichi Agent. You connect Cloudflare once and every client you use sees it.

What can an AI agent actually do with my Cloudflare data?

With the Cloudflare connector, an agent can list your accounts, zones, members and their roles, firewall rules, rule sets, WAF overrides, and audit logs, and look up any one of them by ID. That means you can ask in plain language which firewall rules protect a domain, who has access to an account, or what changed last week, and get an answer from live Cloudflare records. This connector reads Cloudflare; it does not change settings.

Does connecting Cloudflare give the AI access to every account and zone?

No. Everything the agent sees in Cloudflare follows the access of the person who signed in with their key, so it can only read the accounts and zones that person can already read in Cloudflare. Elaichi can narrow that further with restrictions per action, and it can never widen it beyond what Cloudflare itself allows.

Can my team share one Cloudflare connection?

Yes. One person connects Cloudflare in Elaichi and shares the connection with a team, and nobody else ever handles the Cloudflare API key. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so the audit log names the actual person behind every lookup of a zone or firewall rule.

Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Cloudflare?

The Cloudflare connector in Elaichi only lists and looks up records such as zones, firewall rules, and members, so there is nothing here that deletes or changes a Cloudflare setting. On top of that, Elaichi restrictions work per action, so you can turn off any individual capability for a team. A blocked action is never advertised to Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor, so no prompt can reach it.

What happens to a Cloudflare connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding a person in Elaichi ends their access to Cloudflare through Elaichi at once, across every client they used. A shared Cloudflare connection keeps working for everyone else on the team. If you want to remove Cloudflare entirely, disconnecting it once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and every other client at the same time.
