We celebrated our 16th birthday with 46 announcements across open source, post-quantum security, AI agents, and developer platform upgrades. Here’s a day-by-day roundup of everything we shipped.
Quick Tunnels now support email authentication. Add --allowed-mail to one cloudflared command, and only the addresses or domains you list can reach your local app. No Cloudflare account required on either side.
More than half the traffic reaching sites on Cloudflare is now automated, and AI agents are the fastest-growing part of it. We're giving site owners the tools to see who's visiting, decide who gets in, and charge for access.
We are expanding access to Cloudforce One's Threat Events Platform to every Cloudflare account and introducing Threat Signals. Threat Signals automatically parses open-source threat reporting, extracts structured indicators, and connects threat context directly to your WAF rules.
We are releasing cf, our new command-line tool that mirrors the entire Cloudflare API and supports programmatic TypeScript configuration. We are also open-sourcing Forge, our internal SDK generator.
Forge is a pluggable, open-source pipeline that runs in CI to generate SDKs, CLIs, and documentation directly from API definitions. By shifting generation upstream into individual team repositories, Forge keeps developer tools continuously in sync.
Misconfiguring Turnstile by skipping backend validation leaves sites exposed to bots. Turnstile Spin fixes incomplete setups by using your preferred AI coding agent to wire up server-side verification.
Cloudflare OAuth now supports optional scopes, giving users more control over what an app can access and helping developers build secure consent flows around the task at hand.
Our latest Agents Week has come to a close. Here’s a recap of all the announcements we made from Wallets to Radar.
Cloudflare is shifting bot mitigation from point-in-time Risk assessment to continuous Trust evaluation. Learn how new good and bad behaviors from bots and agents are assessed by our systems, including BotBase and Precursor — and try out our Precursor Trace simulation to see how your own cursor movements would be assessed as human or bot.
Cloudflare Radar Researcher is a new AI-powered tool that lets you explore global Internet trends and traffic data using plain language. Built entirely on Cloudflare's Developer Platform, it turns natural language queries into real, interactive charts.
We are launching updated community programs, including Cloudflare Ambassadors and Community Engineers, backed by $1M in open-source funding. Learn how we are supporting maintainers and scaling our developer community.
Cloudflare is unifying AI Gateway and Workers AI into a single control plane, giving developers observability, billing, and dynamic routing across both managed GPUs and external providers. Learn how unified bindings and model-first routing simplify building resilient AI applications.
AI Search makes search easier than ever, with no Cloudflare primitives to stitch together. Point it at your data to create a search for your own files and websites. We're also sharing a preview of our new pricing model.
The next version of MCP has a rewritten, stateless core that just works on Workers. We cover upgrades to the protocol, the new feature lifecycle and SDK migration path, and hear from early adopters already running it in production.
More than half of requests now come from machines, not people. Agent Readiness shows how well agents can discover and read your site, while Answer Engine Optimization tracks how often AI assistants recommend you.
Agents are a new kind of visitor. They don't render CSS or click ads, but they have a paying human on the other end. Block them and you block your customer. We're building the open tools and protocols so publishers and agents can cooperate and not collide.
We should be giving all agents tools that excel at what’s important for an AI model. Kitesurf is Cloudflare’s new stateless, highly scalable, and cost-effective web browser that runs entirely on top of Workers and was designed specifically for the Agentic Cloud.
