Available tools
| Tool group | Tools | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Zone inventory | list_zones, get_zone, get_zone_settings |
Inspect available zones and key settings |
| DNS records | list_dns_records, get_dns_record, create_dns_record, update_dns_record, delete_dns_record |
Read and mutate records |
| Edge actions | purge_cache, list_page_rules |
Invalidate cached content and inspect page rules |
delete_dns_record and full-cache actions stay gated behind the destructive env flags described in
docs/start-here.md.
Runtime proof
| Claim | Proof |
|---|---|
| Package entry point is stable | mcp-cloudflare-dns = "cf.server:main" in pyproject.toml |
| Server is MCP-specific, not a generic CLI | FastMCP("mcp-cloudflare-dns") in cf/server.py |
| Cloudflare failures are retried | _call() in cf/server.py |
| Release artifacts are built | dist/ wheel and tarball are checked into the repo |
Repo map
| Path | Purpose |
|---|---|
| cf/server.py | FastMCP tool surface, env loading, retry wrapper |
| pyproject.toml | Package metadata, version, script entry point |
| server.json | Registry-facing metadata for MCP discovery |
| docs/start-here.md | Setup, env, validation, common failures |
| docs/architecture.md | Component map and request lifecycle |
Validation
| Check | Command |
|---|---|
| Import compiles | python -m compileall cf |
| Package builds | python -m build |
