Cloudflare AI Gateway MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides seamless integration with Cloudflare AI Gateway, enabling you to route AI model requests through Cloudflare's intelligent gateway layer. This server acts as a bridge between MCP-compatible applications and Cloudflare's AI Gateway infrastructure, giving you centralized control over your AI API traffic.

Overview

The Cloudflare AI Gateway MCP Server allows applications using the Model Context Protocol to leverage Cloudflare's AI Gateway capabilities. By routing your AI model requests through this server, you gain access to Cloudflare's global network infrastructure while maintaining the standard MCP interface that your applications already understand.

This integration is particularly valuable for teams already using Cloudflare's ecosystem or those looking to add an additional layer of reliability and monitoring to their AI operations.

What It Does

The server provides a straightforward connection point between MCP clients and Cloudflare AI Gateway. When your application sends requests through this MCP server, those requests are automatically routed through Cloudflare's gateway infrastructure before reaching your AI model providers.

Key Features

  • Universal AI Provider Support: Works with any AI provider that Cloudflare AI Gateway supports, including OpenAI, Anthropic, Hugging Face, and others
  • MCP Standard Compliance: Fully implements the Model Context Protocol specification for seamless integration with compatible applications
  • Transparent Operation: Functions as a pass-through layer, preserving the full request and response cycle
  • Simple Integration: Drop-in replacement for direct AI provider connections in MCP-enabled applications

Use Cases

Centralized AI Management

Organizations using multiple AI models across different applications can route all traffic through a single gateway point, making it easier to maintain consistent policies and monitoring across your AI infrastructure.

Development and Testing

Developers can quickly switch between different AI providers without modifying application code, using Cloudflare AI Gateway's routing capabilities through the familiar MCP interface.

Production Workloads

Production applications benefit from Cloudflare's global network performance and reliability features while maintaining the flexible MCP architecture for AI interactions.

How It Works

The server operates as a standard MCP server, exposing tools and resources that correspond to AI model operations. When you invoke these operations through an MCP client, the server translates your requests into Cloudflare AI Gateway API calls, sends them through Cloudflare's infrastructure, and returns the responses back through the MCP protocol.

This architecture means you can continue using your existing MCP-compatible tools and workflows while gaining the benefits of Cloudflare's gateway layer.

Why Use This Server

If you're already invested in the Cloudflare ecosystem, this server provides a natural integration point for adding AI capabilities to your MCP-enabled applications. Even if you're not currently using Cloudflare, the server offers a compelling option for teams seeking a robust, globally distributed gateway for their AI traffic.

The combination of MCP's flexibility and Cloudflare's infrastructure creates a powerful foundation for building AI-powered applications that are both maintainable and scalable.
