Cloudflare Manager

Manage Cloudflare DNS records, Tunnels (cloudflared), and Zero Trust policies. Use for pointing domains, exposing local services via tunnels, and updating in...

Standardized system for managing Cloudflare infrastructure and local tunnel ingress.

Prerequisites

• Binary: python3 and cloudflared must be installed.
• Credentials: CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN (minimal Zone permissions) and CLOUDFLARE_ZONE_ID.

Setup

1. Define credentials in the environment or a local .env file.
2. Initialize the local environment: bash scripts/install.sh.

Core Workflows

1. DNS Management

Add, list, or delete DNS records via Cloudflare API.

• List: python3 $WORKSPACE/skills/cloudflare-manager/scripts/cf_manager.py list-dns
• Add: python3 $WORKSPACE/skills/cloudflare-manager/scripts/cf_manager.py add-dns --type A --name <subdomain> --content <ip>

2. Tunnel Ingress (Local)

Update /etc/cloudflared/config.yml and restart the tunnel service.

• Update: python3 $WORKSPACE/skills/cloudflare-manager/scripts/cf_manager.py update-ingress --hostname <host> --service <url>
• Safety: Use --dry-run to preview configuration changes before application.

Security & Permissions

• Sudo Usage: The update-ingress command requires sudo to write to system directories and restart the cloudflared service.
• Least Privilege: Configure restricted sudo access using the pattern in references/sudoers.example.
• Token Isolation: Ensure API tokens are scoped narrowly to specific zones and permissions.

Reference

• Sudoers Pattern: See references/sudoers.example.
• Tunnel Logic: See references/tunnel-guide.md.
