The Take

Nice little productivity play: global search (Cmd+Shift+,) that jumps to exact dashboard subpages and in‑menu live metrics actually save clicks for folks who hop between Workers, D1 databases, and Zero Trust pages. The UI looks crisp and the Mac App Store workflow (one‑time $50 unlock) is straightforward, but the idea itself is narrow and tied to macOS/Sonoma — very useful if you fit that niche, not revolutionary outside it.

Target Audience

Developers/DevOps/SREs and power users who manage Cloudflare accounts and want faster dashboard access

Post Description

Hi HN, I've been using Cloudflare for my work for a while now and getting to the dashboard has been a pickle.

After adding the 8th page to my bookmarks, I realised it wasn't tenable. I noodled around with the idea and came up with this.

Now I reach the page I want very quickly.

The app is free to use for a single account, and a one time $50 purchase unlocks everything else - multiple accounts + customization.
