Building Cfmux — A Wrapper Around Cloudflared for Multi-Account Tunnel Management
Exiro Studio · 2026-05-15 · via DEV Community

Exiro Studio

Most infrastructure tools are born from one thing:

Frustration.

Cfmux started exactly the same way.

For a long time, I used Cloudflare Tunnel through cloudflared for almost everything:

  • self-hosted apps
  • development environments
  • temporary testing
  • internal dashboards
  • webhook receivers

And honestly?

cloudflared is great.

It is lightweight, stable, simple to deploy, and probably one of the easiest ways to expose local services securely without dealing with public IPs or complicated reverse proxy setups.

But eventually I hit a workflow problem.

Not a technical limitation.

A workflow limitation.


The Problem Wasn't Tunneling

The problem appeared when I started managing multiple Cloudflare accounts.

Something like this:

  • personal projects
  • client infrastructure
  • staging environments
  • isolated test environments
  • temporary deployments

At first it was manageable.

Then slowly things became messy.

Credential confusion.
Wrong account usage.
Mixed runtime state.
Configs everywhere.

And I realized something important:

I was manually building my own management layer around cloudflared anyway.

So eventually I decided to formalize it.


Enter Cfmux

Cfmux is a lightweight wrapper around cloudflared.

Not a replacement.

Not a competitor.

It still relies entirely on the official Cloudflare tooling underneath.

The goal is actually very small:

make multi-account tunnel workflows cleaner and isolated.

That’s it.

No magic networking layer.
No custom tunnel protocol.
No attempt to reinvent Cloudflare Tunnel.

Just workflow management.


The Core Idea

Instead of relying on one global runtime state, Cfmux isolates everything into profiles.

Example:

~/.cfmux/
├── profiles/
│   ├── personal/
│   ├── client-a/
│   └── staging/
│
└── current-profile

Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Each profile has isolated:

  • credentials
  • configs
  • runtime state
  • services

So switching contexts becomes much safer.


The Difference Sounds Small...

But in practice it changes the workflow completely.

Instead of constantly doing:

cloudflared --origincert path/to/cert.pem tunnel list

Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

You simply do:

cfmux tunnel list

Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Because the active profile already knows:

  • which credentials to use
  • which runtime state belongs to which account
  • which service belongs to which tunnel

It removes a surprising amount of friction.


One Important Design Decision

From the beginning, I intentionally avoided turning this into:

“another overengineered dashboard project.”

I wanted:

  • single binary
  • CLI-first
  • minimal dependencies
  • Linux-friendly
  • boring architecture

So the stack became:

  • Golang
  • Cobra CLI
  • YAML
  • systemd integration

Very traditional.

Very infrastructure-oriented.

And honestly, I think boring stacks are underrated for infra tooling.


The MVP Was Extremely Small

The first version only focused on four things:

cfmux profile add
cfmux profile use
cfmux tunnel list
cfmux service install

Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

That was enough.

No web dashboard.
No database.
No Kubernetes operator.

Just practical tooling.


One Thing That Surprised Me

The deeper I went into this project, the more I realized:

infrastructure tools live or die from reliability.

Not features.

So instead of aggressively adding functionality, I started focusing heavily on testing.

Especially integration testing.

Things like:

  • profile isolation
  • runtime separation
  • corrupt registry handling
  • passthrough execution
  • filesystem safety
  • drift detection
  • config protection

Because infrastructure software stops being “just code” once people trust it with production environments.


Why I Still Respect cloudflared

One thing I want to make very clear:

Cfmux exists because of a workflow gap.

Not because cloudflared is bad.

Actually the opposite.

cloudflared is good enough that I wanted a better management experience around it instead of replacing it entirely.

And honestly?

If Cloudflare eventually adds proper native multi-account workflow management someday, that would be great.

Cfmux was never intended to fight the ecosystem.

It was built to make one specific workflow cleaner.


Installation

Currently installation/update is just:

Final Thoughts

One thing I’ve learned from building this project:

Some of the best software ideas are not revolutionary.

Sometimes they are just:

“this workflow annoys me enough that I should fix it properly.”

And weirdly enough, those projects often become the most useful ones.

Especially when you end up using them yourself every single day.
