AutoGineer summary
Written by AutoGineer from the skill’s own files, not by the author
The Cloudflare platform skill provides a centralized resource for developers building on Cloudflare's edge network. It covers the full ecosystem, including compute (Workers, Pages), storage (KV, D1, R2), AI integration (Workers AI, Agents SDK), networking, and security. The skill emphasizes a retrieval-first approach, directing users to official Cloudflare documentation and configuration schemas to ensure accuracy regarding API signatures, limits, and pricing.
What it does
- Provides decision trees to help select the right Cloudflare product for specific compute, storage, or networking needs.
- Offers structured references for the Cloudflare Agents SDK, including lifecycle hooks and state management.
- Guides users on integrating AI models and vector databases into edge applications.
- Outlines methods for managing infrastructure-as-code using Terraform or Pulumi.
- Facilitates access to product-specific documentation for security, media, and analytics services.
- Maintains a directory of developer tools like Wrangler and Miniflare for local development and testing.
When to use it
- When starting a new project on the Cloudflare platform and needing to choose the appropriate architecture.
- When implementing stateful AI agents using the Cloudflare Agents SDK.
- When configuring edge compute, storage bindings, or networking rules.
- When troubleshooting API limits, configuration errors, or deployment issues.
- When integrating AI models or vector search into existing edge applications.
Advantages
- Consolidates a vast ecosystem into a navigable, task-oriented structure.
- Promotes the use of official, up-to-date documentation over potentially stale training data.
- Simplifies complex architectural decisions through clear, logic-based decision trees.
- Provides specific code patterns for advanced features like Durable Objects and AI agents.
- Supports modern infrastructure-as-code workflows for consistent deployments.
Usage examples
- “I need to build a stateful AI chat agent on Cloudflare. How do I start?”
- The agent will guide you to use the AIChatAgent class from the Agents SDK, explain how to manage message history, and provide a template for integrating AI models.
- “Which storage solution should I use for relational data in my Worker?”
- The agent will point you to D1 for SQLite-based relational storage or Hyperdrive for connecting to existing Postgres/MySQL databases.
- “How do I expose my local development server to the internet via Cloudflare?”
- The agent will provide instructions on using Cloudflare Tunnel to securely connect your local service to the Cloudflare edge.

Documentation by Cloudflare
Cloudflare Platform Skill
Consolidated skill for building on the Cloudflare platform. Use decision trees below to find the right product, then load detailed references.
Your knowledge of Cloudflare APIs, types, limits, and pricing may be outdated. Prefer retrieval over pre-training — the references in this skill are starting points, not source of truth.
Retrieval Sources
Fetch the latest information before citing specific numbers, API signatures, or configuration options. Do not rely on baked-in knowledge or these reference files alone.
| Source | How to retrieve | Use for |
|---|---|---|
| Cloudflare docs | Search https://developers.cloudflare.com/ directly | Limits, pricing, API reference, compatibility dates/flags |
| Workers types | npm pack @cloudflare/workers-types or check node_modules | Type signatures, binding shapes, handler types |
| Wrangler config schema | node_modules/wrangler/config-schema.json | Config fields, binding shapes, allowed values |
| Product changelogs | https://developers.cloudflare.com/changelog/ | Recent changes to limits, features, deprecations |
When a reference file and the docs disagree, trust the docs. This is especially important for: numeric limits, pricing tiers, type signatures, and configuration options.

}DurableObjectState Context Methods
Concurrency Control
// Complete work after response sent (e.g., cleanup, logging)
this.ctx.waitUntil(promise: Promise<any>): void
// Critical section - blocks all other requests until complete
await this.ctx.blockConcurrencyWhile(async () => {
// No other requests processed during this block
// Use for initialization or critical operations
})When to use:
waitUntil(): Background cleanup, logging, non-critical work after responseblockConcurrencyWhile(): First-time init, schema migration, critical state setup
Lifecycle
this.ctx.id // DurableObjectId of this instance
this.ctx.abort() // Force eviction (use after PITR restore to reload state)Storage Access
this.ctx.storage.sql // SQLite API (recommended)
this.ctx.storage.kv // Sync KV API (SQLite DOs only)
this.ctx.storage // Async KV API (legacy/KV-only DOs)See DO Storage for complete storage API reference.
WebSocket Management
this.ctx.acceptWebSocket(ws: WebSocket, tags?: string[]) // Enable hibernation
this.ctx.getWebSockets(tag?: string): WebSocket[] // Get by tag or all
this.ctx.getTags(ws: WebSocket): string[] // Get tags for connectionAlarms
await this.ctx.storage.setAlarm(timestamp: number | Date) // Schedule (overwrites existing)
await this.ctx.storage.getAlarm(): number | null // Get next alarm time
await this.ctx.storage.deleteAlarm(): void // Cancel alarmLimit: 1 alarm per DO. Use queue pattern for multiple events (see Patterns).
Storage APIs
For detailed storage documentation including SQLite queries, KV operations, transactions, and Point-in-Time Recovery, see DO Storage.
Quick reference:
// SQLite (recommended)
this.ctx.storage.sql.exec("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = ?", userId).one()
// Sync KV (SQLite DOs only)
this.ctx.storage.kv.get("key")
// Async KV (legacy)
await this.ctx.storage.get("key")Alarms
Schedule future work that survives eviction:
// Set alarm (overwrites any existing alarm)
await this.ctx.storage.setAlarm(Date.now() + 3600000) // 1 hour from now
await this.ctx.storage.setAlarm(new Date("2026-02-01")) // Absolute time
// Check next alarm
const nextRun = await this.ctx.storage.getAlarm() // null if none
// Cancel alarm
await this.ctx.storage.deleteAlarm()
// Handler called when alarm fires
async alarm() {
// Runs once alarm triggers
// DO wakes from hibernation if needed
// Use for cleanup, notifications, scheduled tasks
}Limitations:
1 alarm per DO maximum
Overwrites previous alarm when set
Use queue pattern for multiple scheduled events (see Patterns)
Reliability:
Alarms survive DO eviction/restart
Cloudflare retries failed alarms automatically
Not guaranteed exactly-once (handle idempotently)
WebSocket Hibernation
Hibernation allows DOs with open WebSocket connections to consume zero compute/memory until message arrives.
async fetch(req: Request): Promise<Response> {
const [client, server] = Object.values(new WebSocketPair());
this.ctx.acceptWebSocket(server, ["room:123"]); // Tags for filtering
server.serializeAttachment({ userId: "abc" }); // Persisted metadata
return new Response(null, { status: 101, webSocket: client });
}
// Called when message arrives (DO wakes from hibernation)
async webSocketMessage(ws: WebSocket, msg: string | ArrayBuffer) {
const data = ws.deserializeAttachment(); // Retrieve metadata
for (const c of this.ctx.getWebSockets("room:123")) c.send(msg);
}
// Called on close (optional handler)
async webSocketClose(ws: WebSocket, code: number, reason: string, wasClean: boolean) {
// Cleanup logic, remove from lists, etc.
}
// Called on error (optional handler)
async webSocketError(ws: WebSocket, error: unknown) {
console.error("WebSocket error:", error);
// Handle error, close connection, etc.
}Key concepts:
Auto-hibernation: DO hibernates when no active requests/alarms
Zero cost: Hibernated DOs incur no charges while preserving connections
Memory cleared: All in-memory state lost on hibernation
Attachment persistence: Use
serializeAttachment()for per-connection metadata that survives hibernationTags for filtering: Group connections by room/channel/user for targeted broadcasts
Handler lifecycle:
webSocketMessage: DO wakes, processes message, may hibernate afterwebSocketClose: Called when client closes (optional - implement for cleanup)webSocketError: Called on connection error (optional - implement for error handling)
Metadata persistence:
// Store connection metadata (survives hibernation)
ws.serializeAttachment({ userId: "abc", room: "lobby" })
// Retrieve after hibernation
const { userId, room } = ws.deserializeAttachment()See Also
