Native Tunnel Management in Wrangler

Cloudflare has added a comprehensive set of tunnel management commands directly to Wrangler, the CLI tool for the Cloudflare Developer Platform. This eliminates the context-switching developers previously needed when managing Cloudflare Tunnels, bringing tunnel operations into the same terminal workflow as Workers and other Cloudflare services.

Available Commands

The new wrangler tunnel command family includes:

• wrangler tunnel create — Create a new remotely managed tunnel
• wrangler tunnel list — List all tunnels in your account
• wrangler tunnel info — Display details about a specific tunnel
• wrangler tunnel delete — Delete a tunnel
• wrangler tunnel run — Run a tunnel using the cloudflared daemon
• wrangler tunnel quick-start — Start a free, temporary tunnel without an account using Quick Tunnels

Binary Management Automation

Wrangler automatically handles downloading and managing the cloudflared binary, removing manual setup steps. On first use, developers are prompted to download cloudflared to a local cache directory, keeping the installation clean and isolated from system directories.

Development Status

These commands are currently marked as experimental and may change without notice. Developers should refer to the Wrangler tunnel commands documentation for the latest details and usage patterns.
