cloudflare-helper

A set of instructions for using the Cloudflare command-line tool, including DNS records, tunnels, zones, R2, Workers, and zero-trust features.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when managing Cloudflare zones, DNS, tunnels, or related services through commands such as listing zones, creating DNS records, and creating tunnels.
Why use it?
It gives the agent a consistent way to manage Cloudflare resources and includes warnings for operations that can remove or purge data.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

cloudflare-helper scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

1. **Use the cf CLI** — Always prefer `cf` commands over curl or API calls
plugins/cloudflare/skills/cloudflare-helper/SKILL.md · 125 lines

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 125 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You have access to the cf CLI tool for managing Cloudflare resources. Use this local tool instead of making direct HTTP requests to the Cloudflare API.

Key Principles

  1. Use the cf CLI — Always prefer cf commands over curl or API calls
  2. Use --json — Append --json to commands for parseable, machine-readable output
  3. Pass zones by name — The cf CLI accepts zone names (domains) directly; no need to look up IDs first
  4. Warn before destructive ops — For delete, purge, or tunnel deletion, always warn the user and get explicit confirmation
  5. Suggest slash commands — For common workflows, reference the available slash commands: /cloudflare:dns, /cloudflare:tunnel, /cloudflare:zones, /cloudflare:purge, /cloudflare:setup
  6. Deep diagnostics — For complex issues, suggest running /cloudflare:diagnose to launch the specialized diagnostician agent

Common Commands Reference

List all zones

cf zones list --json

Add an A record

cf dns create example.com --type A --name www --content 1.2.3.4 --proxied --ttl 3600 --json

List DNS records for a zone

cf dns list example.com --json

Create a new tunnel

cf tunnels create my-tunnel --json

List all tunnels

cf tunnels list --json

Purge entire cache for a zone

cf zones purge example.com --json

Purge specific URLs

cf zones purge example.com https://example.com/page1,https://example.com/page2 --json

Check tunnel connections

cf tunnels connections <tunnel-id> --json

Export DNS records (bind format)

cf dns export example.com

Available Slash Commands

  • /cloudflare:dns — DNS management (list, add, delete, export)
  • /cloudflare:tunnel — Tunnel management (list, create, inspect, connections)
  • /cloudflare:zones — Zone overview (list, get details)
  • /cloudflare:purge — Cache purging (entire cache or specific URLs)
  • /cloudflare:setup — Verify installation and credentials
  • /cloudflare:diagnose — Launch diagnostic subagent for troubleshooting

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

cloudflare-helper is a skill published in the GitHub repository ThrownLemon/claude-code-plugins (2 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 34 tokens to every session and 957 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
