Cloudflare Reference

Use cf:* commands to manage DNS records in Cloudflare zones.

Configuration

Set your API token in the environment:

dotenv

CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN=...

Create a token at dash.cloudflare.com/profile/api-tokens with Zone:DNS:Edit for the zones you manage.

At a Glance

Command	Use it when you need to...
`cf:dns:list`	inspect DNS records in a zone
`cf:dns:set`	create or update a DNS record
`cf:dns:delete`	delete a DNS record

Alias commands are also supported:

cloudflare:dns:list
cloudflare:dns:set
cloudflare:dns:delete

DNS Management

A practical sequence is list first, then apply create/update/delete changes once you confirm the target record set.

When creating or updating records, cf:dns:set prompts for Cloudflare proxy status (the "orange cloud"). Enabling the proxy hides your origin IP and activates CDN and DDoS protection. Proxy support is available for A, AAAA, and CNAME record types.

cf:dns:delete uses a two-tier confirmation: you type the record name first, then confirm with a yes/no prompt.

shell

deployer cf:dns:list
deployer cf:dns:set
deployer cf:dns:delete

Use Cloudflare DNS updates together with site:dns:check when preparing HTTPS enablement.
