Try copying the existing `cloudflare.template.yml` to `cloudflare-static.template.yml` and replace the top part to make it look like:

```plaintext
run:
  - file:
      path: /tmp/add-cloudflare-ips
      chmod: +x
      contents: |
        #!/bin/bash -e
        cat <<EOF > /tmp/cloudflare-ips

        2a06:98c0::/29
        2c0f:f248::/32
        EOF
        # Make into nginx commands and escape for inclusion into sed append command
        CONTENTS=$(</tmp/cloudflare-ips sed '/^$/d; s/^.*/set_real_ip_from &;/' | tr '\n' '\\' | sed 's/\\/\\n/g')
        
        echo CloudFlare IPs:
        echo $(echo | sed "/^/a $CONTENTS")
        # Insert into discourse.conf
        sed -i "/sendfile on;/a $CONTENTS\nreal_ip_header CF-Connecting-IP;" /etc/nginx/conf.d/discourse.conf
        # Clean up
        rm /tmp/cloudflare-ips

  - exec: "/tmp/add-cloudflare-ips"
  - exec: "rm /tmp/add-cloudflare-ips"

```

Then change your app container to use the `-static` template instead of the original one.

Don’t leave it like that forever.
