Clear the Cloudflare cache of any zone you manage — in three taps, from your iPhone, iPad or Mac. FlarePurge is a native Apple app for developers, agencies and teams who run websites behind Cloudflare. Select a zone, tap the orange flame, confirm. Done. No more opening the Cloudflare dashboard just to clear a CSS file. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Purge the entire cache of a zone • Selective purge — up to 30 specific URLs or hostnames, automatic batching • Bulk purge — every zone in a Cloudflare account in one confirm • Multi-account — add as many Cloudflare accounts as you need • Favorites — pin the zones you touch every day • History — the last purges from this session NATIVE ON EVERY APPLE DEVICE • iPhone with a tuned iOS 17 design • iPad with sidebar + detail split view • Mac with true keyboard shortcuts (⌘F search, ⌘R reload, ⌘1–9 favorites), menu bar integration and full macOS UI PRIVACY IS THE CONTRACT • No analytics. No tracking. No third-party SDKs. • No backend of ours: traffic goes directly from your device to api.cloudflare.com. • TLS with certificate pinning (SPKI SHA-256 hashes of Cloudflare's certs). • API tokens stored in the system Keychain, device-only by default; optional iCloud Keychain sync. • Favorites sync via your own private CloudKit container — we have zero visibility. SAFE BY DESIGN • Only accepts scoped Cloudflare API tokens — Global API Key is not supported, by design. • Minimum token scopes documented up front: Zone:Zone:Read + Zone:Cache Purge:Purge. • Destructive operations always require explicit confirmation.

About

Shortcut Toolkit

Features
Read full description

Shortcut Toolkit extends Apple Shortcuts with native, background actions for advanced automation. Build more dependable AI and agent workflows with tools to validate, extract, and safely repair JSON; validate dictionary schemas; build compact AI context; estimate tokens; and wrap action results in predictable formats. Keep local workflow state on your device with temporary values, persistent values, agent state, and conversation memory. Clean AI responses, process text and lists, create identifiers and hashes, work with URLs, and cache results without leaving Shortcuts. Create safe reusable custom blocks in the companion app, then select them directly in Shortcuts. Audio Spectrum blocks can analyze an audio file and return a PNG spectrum graph for the next step in your workflow. Shortcut Toolkit is designed to stay out of the way: actions run inside Shortcuts wherever Apple permits, return results directly to the next action, and keep data on-device unless you choose a Shortcut action that sends it elsewhere.
