TTL
1= automatic (Cloudflare-managed)- Set explicit seconds for DNS-only records (e.g.,
3600)
Typical workflows
Point domain to server
# Find zone ID
cf zones example.com
# Create A record (proxied)
cf dns-create <zone_id> A example.com 1.2.3.4 true
# Create www CNAME
cf dns-create <zone_id> CNAME www.example.com example.com true
Set up email (MX + SPF)
cf dns-create <zone_id> MX example.com "mx.provider.com" false 1
cf dns-create <zone_id> TXT example.com "v=spf1 include:provider.com ~all" false
Enable strict SSL
cf ssl-set <zone_id> strict
Safety rules
Always confirm with the user before:
- Deleting DNS records (
dns-delete) - Changing SSL mode
- Modifying firewall rules
- Any destructive operation
Safe to do freely:
- Listing/reading zones, records, settings, analytics
- Verifying token
