Cloudflare Observability MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides seamless access to Cloudflare's observability data and analytics. This server enables AI assistants and applications to query, analyze, and understand your Cloudflare infrastructure's performance, security events, and operational metrics through natural language interactions.

Overview

The Cloudflare Observability MCP Server bridges the gap between Cloudflare's powerful observability platform and AI-driven workflows. By exposing Cloudflare's analytics, logs, and monitoring data through the MCP protocol, this server allows you to gain insights into your edge infrastructure without leaving your development environment or AI assistant interface.

What It Does

This MCP server provides comprehensive access to Cloudflare's observability features, allowing you to:

• Query analytics data across your Cloudflare zones and accounts
• Access real-time and historical traffic patterns
• Retrieve security event logs and threat intelligence
• Monitor performance metrics for your edge applications
• Analyze Web Application Firewall (WAF) events and rule triggers
• Review rate limiting and DDoS mitigation statistics
• Examine cache performance and optimization opportunities
• Track API usage and request patterns

Key Features

Analytics Access
