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Your knowledge of Cloudflare APIs, types, limits, and pricing may be outdated.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.

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.

Quick Decision Trees

"I need feature flags"

Need feature flags?
└─ Feature toggles, targeting rules, percentage rollouts → flagship/
   ├─ Evaluate in Workers → Flagship binding (env.FLAGS)
   ├─ Evaluate in Node.js / browser → OpenFeature SDK (@cloudflare/flagship)
   └─ Manage flags via API → Flagship REST API

"I need to run code"

Need to run code?
├─ Serverless functions at the edge → workers/
├─ Full-stack web app with Git deploys → pages/
├─ Stateful coordination/real-time → durable-objects/
├─ Long-running multi-step jobs → workflows/
├─ Run containers → containers/
├─ Multi-tenant (customers deploy code) → workers-for-platforms/
├─ Scheduled tasks (cron) → cron-triggers/
├─ Lightweight edge logic (modify HTTP) → snippets/
├─ Process Worker execution events (logs/observability) → tail-workers/
└─ Optimize latency to backend infrastructure → smart-placement/

"I need to store data"

Need storage?
├─ Key-value (config, sessions, cache) → kv/
├─ Relational SQL → d1/ (SQLite) or hyperdrive/ (existing Postgres/MySQL)
├─ Object/file storage (S3-compatible) → r2/
├─ Versioned file trees (repos, build outputs, checkpoints) → artifacts/
├─ Message queue (async processing) → queues/
├─ Vector embeddings (AI/semantic search) → vectorize/
└─ Browser state / session → durable-objects/
