mcp-cloudflare-dns

Cloudflare DNS MCP server. Manage zones, DNS records, cache, and page rules from Claude, Cursor, Codex, or any MCP-compatible AI assistant.

# Install:  uvx mcp-cloudflare-dns

# Ask your AI:
"List all DNS records for example.com"
"Add a CNAME record pointing api.example.com to my-app.vercel.app"
"Purge the cache for https://example.com/products"
"What page rules are active on example.com?"

Why this one?

The official Cloudflare MCP covers Workers, KV, D1, and R2 — but has zero DNS tools. This server fills that gap.
