Cloudflare platform news, Workers / Pages / D1 / R2 updates, and research projects like Unweight.
On July 1, Cloudflare launched the Monetization Gateway: sites can charge any crawler, agent, or API per request over x402, settled in stablecoins.
Cloudflare now lets any developer build a real OAuth login against its API, ending a partner-only gate. Here's what that fixes and the catch.
RFC 10008 standardizes HTTP QUERY: a request that's safe and idempotent like GET but ships a body like POST. Here's what it fixes and who supports it.
Cloudflare acquired VoidZero, Evan You's company behind Vite, Vitest, Rolldown and Oxc. The tools stay MIT-licensed, and there's a $1M ecosystem fund.
Cloudflare moved Browser Run off shared isolation infrastructure on May 13. The agentic-coding crowd gets four times the headless-Chrome ceiling and half the latency.
Three Cloudflare engineers shipped panic and abort recovery into wasm-bindgen on April 22. A Rust Worker that panics now reinitialises on the next request.
Cloudflare laid off 20% of its workforce on May 7 while reporting record Q1 revenue of $639.8M. The stock dropped 18% after hours.
A 300-line MIT library lets one Worker route durable execution to every tenant's own workflow. The piece Cloudflare's Agents Week was missing.
Unweight is Cloudflare Research's new BF16 weight compressor. 22% smaller bundles, 13% smaller inference footprint, 30-40% throughput overhead, BSD license.
