Custom worker domain without migrating
Hello all,
I'm currently assessing migrating our SSR to CF workers, I'm extremely impressed with it's results so far, but one serious concern is domains.
I'm very new to cloudflare and it's unclear how to use custom domain with Workers without migrating to CF nameservers, you can imagine we're not exactly thrilled to migrate to CF nameservers just to for PoC, let alone migrating all our dns records there in near future without any obvious benefits. All the resource and documentation seems to only show how to migrate whole domain.
Can somebody please help me get on right the direction with using custom domain with Worker without migrating to CF ns ? We currently use Aws Route53 if it matters.

I have found https://developers.cloudflare.com/pages/configuration/custom-domains/#add-a-custom-subdomain and realized it's exactly what I'd like to achieve, but I cannot find how to associate subdomain with my Cloudflare account, when just adding cname records to route53 CF throws errors.
ChatGPT keeps just saying that I need to request this CNAME option from CF support, but there is no support for free accounts.
