  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 1 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by mizchi on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Cloudflare Access App Setup AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/mizchi/skills.git /tmp/skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/skills/cloudflare-access-app-setup .claude/skills/cloudflare-access-app-setup
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Cloudflare Access App Setup in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Cloudflare Access App Setup on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Cloudflare Access App Setup is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Cloudflare Access app setup (API-driven)

Creates a self-hosted Cloudflare Access application, an email-allowlist policy, and a service token for headless CLI / CI access. Idempotent: re-running updates the existing app rather than creating duplicates.

Pulumi is the recommended long-term option (declarative + drift detection), but a script is the right answer for:

  • One-shot setup when you don't want Pulumi state for a single app.
  • CI that needs to spin up an ephemeral Access app per PR for testing.
  • Replacing the service token (rotating credentials) without re-importing the rest of the stack.

When to invoke

Use when you're:

  • Setting up Access for a brand-new Cloudflare Worker without an existing Pulumi stack.
  • Adding a service token to an existing Access app for CI smoke runs.
  • Rotating service token credentials without touching the rest of infra.

What's in here

assets/scripts/setup-access-app.ts

Generic script. Reads config via env vars / CLI args, calls the Cloudflare API at https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/<id>/access/apps. Outputs the app's AUD (paste into wrangler.jsonc.vars.APP_ACCESS_AUD or equivalent) and, if --create-service-token, the token client_id + client_secret (paste into .env.cloudflare).

Inputs (env or CLI):

VarRequiredDefault
CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKENyes
CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_IDyes
--nameyes
--domainyes
--allow-emailsone of allow-emails / service-token
--create-service-tokenoptionalfalse
--session-durationoptional24h
--api-baseoptionalhttps://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4

When NOT to invoke

  • You already use Pulumi for infra. Use the Pulumi ZeroTrustAccessApplication resource — drift detection is worth the extra state file.
  • You need a complex policy graph (multi-tenant, group membership, time-based access). The script is intentionally narrow: one email-allowlist + one optional service token.

Source

The mnemo version (with hard-coded mnemo domain defaults) is at mizchi/mnemo/blob/main/mnemo-server/scripts/setup-access-app.mjs. The version shipped here is the same script with the domain defaults parameterized.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Cloudflare Access App Setup AI skill do?

One-shot Cloudflare Access self-hosted application provisioning via the API — app + email allowlist policy + service token. Use when you want to gate a Worker behind Access without a full Pulumi stack.

Why use Cloudflare Access App Setup on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Cloudflare Access App Setup is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Cloudflare Access App Setup in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/mizchi/skills/tree/main/cloudflare-access-app-setup. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Cloudflare Access App Setup?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Cloudflare Access App Setup?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Cloudflare Access App Setup with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Cloudflare Access App Setup AI skill free?

It is published on GitHub by mizchi. Check the repository for licensing terms. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
