Cloudflare announced a major expansion of its Agent Cloud platform, introducing new infrastructure, security, and developer tools designed to support the next generation of autonomous AI agents at scale.
The expansion reflects a broader shift in software development, as AI agents move beyond chat-based interfaces toward systems capable of executing multi-step tasks, writing code, and operating across applications. Cloudflare’s updated platform is designed to enable developers to build and deploy production-grade agents that can run reliably across its global network.
A core component of the update is Dynamic Workers, a new compute model that allows AI-generated code to run in secure, isolated environments without the overhead of traditional containers. This approach is intended to significantly reduce cost and latency while enabling millions of concurrent agent executions.
Cloudflare also introduced Artifacts, a Git-compatible storage system built for agent-generated code and data, allowing developers to manage large-scale repositories and provide persistent storage for autonomous workflows. In addition, the company announced the general availability of Sandboxes, which provide full operating system environments where agents can run complex tasks such as building software, installing dependencies, and iterating on code.
To support long-running and multi-step workflows, Cloudflare unveiled Think, a framework within its Agents SDK that enables persistence and coordination across extended tasks, addressing limitations of short-lived agent interactions.
The platform also integrates a unified model layer, allowing developers to access both proprietary and open-source AI models through a single interface, improving flexibility as the AI ecosystem continues to evolve.
Cloudflare’s Agent Cloud is designed to address key challenges in scaling AI agents, including compute efficiency, storage, deployment, and security, positioning the company as a foundational infrastructure provider for what it describes as the “agentic web.”
The announcement builds on Cloudflare’s broader strategy of enabling organizations to run applications and AI workloads more efficiently across its network, supporting the transition toward AI-driven software development and automation.
KEY QUOTES:
“The way people build software is fundamentally changing. We are entering a world where agents are the ones writing and executing code. But agents need a home that is secure by default, scales to millions instantly, and persists across long-running tasks. We’ve spent nine years building the foundation for this with Cloudflare Workers. Today, we are making Cloudflare the definitive platform for the agentic web.”
Matthew Prince, Co-Founder And CEO, Cloudflare
“Cloud agents are quickly becoming a foundational building block for how work gets done, and with Cloudflare, we’re making it dramatically easier for developers to deploy, production-ready agents powered by GPT-5.4 and Codex to run real enterprise workloads at scale.”
Rohan Varma, Product, Codex, OpenAI
