Cloudflare Troubleshooting

Diagnose and fix Cloudflare redirect loops, SSL, and DNS problems by querying the actual configuration through the Cloudflare API.

Web & APIIntermediate★ 1,419⑂ 219AI score 9/10Last updated: Sep 22, 2026

What it does

  • Teaches Claude an evidence-first investigation method: query the Cloudflare API for real configuration state before proposing any fix.
  • Provides a repeatable workflow: get zone ID → inspect related settings → determine root cause → apply a targeted change → purge cache → re-verify.
  • Includes symptom-specific evidence sequences for ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS, SSL errors (525/526), DNS record issues, origin 502/503/504, and Email Routing.
  • Adds external cross-checks with dig, curl, openssl s_client, plus credential-safety rules and propagation wait times.

Who it's for

  • Site and SaaS operators running behind the Cloudflare proxy.
  • Developers wiring custom domains to GitHub Pages / Netlify / Vercel who hit redirect loops.
  • Infra and DevOps engineers who need fast root-cause analysis for DNS, TLS, and origin failures.

Examples

  1. "My site returns ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS" → checks whether SSL mode is flexible, switches it to full, then purges cache and tells you how long to wait.
  2. "HTTPS shows Error 526" → inspects certificate packs and the origin certificate to judge whether Full (strict) is appropriate.
  3. "Domain won't resolve" → compares DNS records, proxy status, DNSSEC state and dig @8.8.8.8 output to spot missing or conflicting records.

  1. Download the ZIP with the button below.
  2. In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
  3. Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.
↓ Download ZIP
Install in Claude Code

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the cloudflare-troubleshooting folder from the GitHub repo daymade/claude-code-skills into my ~/.claude/skills/cloudflare-troubleshooting/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/daymade/claude-code-skills.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r claude-code-skills/cloudflare-troubleshooting ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Open a terminal.
  2. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/daymade/claude-code-skills.git
  3. Create the skills directory: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
  4. Copy just this skill: cp -r claude-code-skills/cloudflare-troubleshooting ~/.claude/skills/
  5. Install jq if missing (macOS: brew install jq, Ubuntu: sudo apt install jq).
  6. In the Cloudflare Dashboard go to My Profile → API Tokens and create a scoped API Token (safer than the Global API Key).
  7. Restart Claude Code and ask something like "my Cloudflare site is in a redirect loop" to trigger the skill. Never paste credentials into public chats or logs.
