Cloudflare to GitHub Backup MCP Server

This is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that backs up Cloudflare projects to a GitHub repository.

Prerequisites

• Node.js and npm installed.
• A Cloudflare account and API token with read access to your projects.
• A GitHub account and personal access token with "repo" scope.
• A GitHub repository where you want to store the backups.

Installation

Installing via Smithery

To install Cloudflare to GitHub Backup for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install @DynamicEndpoints/cloudflare-github-backup-mcp --client claude

Manual Installation

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone <repository_url>
   cd cloudflare-github-backup
   

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install
   

3. Build the project

   npm run build
   

Configuration

1. Obtain your Cloudflare API token:

   • Go to your Cloudflare dashboard.
   • Navigate to "My Profile" -> "API Tokens".
   • Click "Create Token".
   • Ensure the token has the necessary permissions to read your projects.
   • Copy the token.

2. Obtain your GitHub personal access token:

   • Go to your GitHub settings.
   • Navigate to "Developer settings" -> "Personal access tokens".
   • Click "Generate new token".
   • Select the "repo" scope.
   • Copy the token.

3. Edit the cline_mcp_settings.json file:

   {
     "mcpServers": {
       "cloudflare-backup": {
         "command": "node",
         "args": ["/path/to/cloudflare-github-backup/build/index.js"],
         "env": {
           "CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN": "your_cloudflare_api_token",
           "GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your_github_access_token",
           "GITHUB_REPO_NAME": "your_github_repo_name"
         }
       }
     }
   }
   

   • Replace /path/to/cloudflare-github-backup with the actual path to the cloudflare-github-backup directory.
   • Replace your_cloudflare_api_token, your_github_access_token, and your_github_repo_name with your actual tokens and repository name.

Usage

1. Start the MCP server by restarting the VS Code extension.

2. Use the use_mcp_tool tool to call the backup_projects tool:

   <use_mcp_tool>
   <server_name>cloudflare-backup</server_name>
   <tool_name>backup_projects</tool_name>
   <arguments>
   {}
   </arguments>
   </use_mcp_tool>
   

   This will trigger the backup process. The server will log messages to the console indicating the progress.

Note

Currently, the backup logic is just a placeholder. It will log messages to the console but won't perform actual backups. The next step is to implement the actual backup logic using the Cloudflare and GitHub APIs.
