Introduction

OpenClaw is the fastest growing agent harness out there, which can work 24/7 to automate almost any kind of tasks. However, its capabilities are limited to the tools it has access to. Composio allows your OpenClaw to access Cloudflare with authentication management handled for you. You can execute actions on Cloudflare via your favorite OpenClaw interface (Telegram, WhatsApp, TUI, etc), whichever you prefer.

Why use Composio?

Apart from a managed and hosted MCP server, you will get:

  • Programmatic tool calling allows LLMs to write its code in a remote workbench to handle complex tool chaining. Reduces to-and-fro with LLMs for frequent tool calling.
  • Handling Large tool responses out of LLM context to minimize context rot.
  • Dynamic just-in-time access to 20,000 tools across 850+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so LLMs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.

How to install Cloudflare with OpenClaw

Using Composio API Key and Setup Prompt

Copy the setup prompt from the OpenClaw dashboard
  • Run it in your OpenClaw chat interface.
  • Authenticate Cloudflare from the dashboard
  • Go back to your OpenClaw interface and start asking questions.

Using OpenClaw/Composio Plugin

1. Install OpenClaw Composio plugin

bash
openclaw plugins install @composio/openclaw-plugin

2. Copy the API Key from dashboard.composio.dev

3. Setup OpenClaw Config

openclaw config set plugins.entries.composio.config.consumerKey "ck_your_key_here"

4. Restart OpenClaw

openclaw gateway restart

5. Go to your chat interface and start asking questions.

6. When prompted, authenticate the app and you're all set.

How It Works

The plugin connects to Composio's MCP server at https://connect.composio.dev/mcp and registers all available tools directly into the OpenClaw agent. Tools are called by name — no extra search or execute steps needed.

If a tool returns an auth error, the agent will prompt you to connect that toolkit at dashboard.composio.dev.

What is the Cloudflare MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Cloudflare MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Cloudflare account. It provides structured and secure access to your Cloudflare infrastructure, so your agent can perform actions like managing DNS records, configuring WAF lists, auditing firewall rules, and overseeing zones and account members—all on your behalf.

  • DNS record management: Effortlessly create or delete DNS records within any zone, allowing your agent to automate domain setup and maintenance tasks.
  • WAF list and firewall rule automation: Direct your agent to create, list, or delete Web Application Firewall (WAF) lists and audit firewall rules to enhance your site's security posture.
  • Zone administration: Enable your agent to create new zones when adding domains or delete zones that are no longer needed, streamlining domain onboarding and cleanup.
  • Account and member management: Let your agent list all Cloudflare accounts you have access to and enumerate members within each account for audit or collaboration purposes.
  • Comprehensive infrastructure visibility: Ask your agent to fetch and review your entire Cloudflare account structure, making it simple to monitor resources and configurations at scale.

Conclusion

You've successfully integrated Cloudflare with OpenClaw using Composio plugin. Now interact with Cloudflare directly from your terminal, Web UI, or any messenger app using natural language commands.

Key benefits of this setup:

  • Seamless integration across TUI, Web UIs, and Messenger apps like Telegram, WhatsApp, Slack, etc.
  • Natural language commands for Cloudflare operations
  • Managed authentication through Composio
  • Access to 20,000+ tools across 850+ apps for cross-app workflows
  • Programmatic tool calling for complex tool chaining

Next steps:

  • Try asking OpenClaw to perform various Cloudflare operations
  • Explore cross-app workflows by connecting more toolkits like Calendar, Slack, Notion, etc.
  • Build complex automation scripts that leverage OpenClaw's 24/7 running capabilities

FAQ

What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Cloudflare MCP?

With a standalone Cloudflare MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Cloudflare tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Cloudflare and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

Can I use Tool Router MCP with OpenClaw?

Yes, you can. OpenClaw fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Cloudflare tools.

Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Cloudflare while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Cloudflare scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Cloudflare data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
