Pages

Primary use case for static site deployment (Next.js output: 'export', Astro, etc.).

Deploy

# Direct deploy (no git integration needed)
npm run build
wrangler pages deploy out --project-name worldwarwatcher

# With commit tracking
wrangler pages deploy out --project-name mysite --commit-hash $(git rev-parse HEAD) --commit-message "$(git log -1 --format=%s)"

# Preview deploy (non-production branch)
wrangler pages deploy out --project-name mysite --branch staging

Project Management

wrangler pages project create mysite --production-branch main
wrangler pages project list
wrangler pages project delete mysite

Deployment History & Rollback

wrangler pages deployment list --project-name mysite
wrangler pages deployment tail --project-name mysite    # Stream logs

To rollback: redeploy a previous build directory, or use the dashboard to promote an earlier deployment.

Custom Domains

Custom domain management is dashboard-only — wrangler cannot add/remove custom domains for Pages projects. Use the Cloudflare dashboard:

Workers & Pages → project → Custom Domains → Add
CF auto-creates DNS records and provisions TLS

Pages Config Files

Place _headers and _redirects in your static assets directory (e.g., public/ for Next.js, Astro, Vite) — the build process copies them to the output root.

Details: references/pages-config.md — _headers format, _redirects format, framework presets, preview deploys.

Workers

# Create new Worker project (C3 scaffolding)
npm create cloudflare@latest my-worker

# Local development (with hot reload)
wrangler dev

# Deploy to production
wrangler deploy

# Stream live logs
wrangler tail my-worker

Note: wrangler init is deprecated — use npm create cloudflare@latest instead.

Agents SDK & Code Mode

Build stateful AI agents on Cloudflare Workers with durable state, MCP tool consumption, and sandboxed dynamic code execution.

Code Mode converts AI SDK and MCP tools into TypeScript APIs that LLMs write code against, executed in isolated V8 Worker sandboxes (millisecond cold start, fetch/connect blocked by default).

Quick Start

# Scaffold an Agents project
npm create cloudflare@latest my-agent -- --template agents

# Install Code Mode
npm install @cloudflare/codemode ai zod

Key Concepts

Concept	Description
`Agent<Env, State>`	Base class for stateful agents on Workers (extends `DurableObject`)
`createCodeTool()`	Wraps AI SDK tools into a single code tool the LLM writes against
`DynamicWorkerExecutor`	Runs LLM-generated TypeScript in isolated V8 sandbox
`this.mcp.getAITools()`	Consume external MCP tools inside an Agent
`generateTypes()`	Auto-generate TypeScript declarations from tool definitions
`worker_loaders` binding	Required in wrangler.jsonc for Code Mode sandbox

When to Use

Need	Approach
Static API endpoint or cron	Standard Worker (`wrangler deploy`)
Stateful agent with conversations	Agents SDK (`extends Agent`)
LLM composing multiple tools dynamically	Code Mode (`@cloudflare/codemode`)
Consuming external MCP servers	Agents SDK with `this.mcp`

Note: Dynamic Worker Loader API is in closed beta for production. Available locally via wrangler dev.

Full API reference and examples: references/agents-sdk-codemode.md

Storage & Data Services

Service	Purpose	Key Commands
KV	Key-value store	`kv namespace create/list`, `kv key put/get/list/delete`
R2	Object storage (S3-compatible)	`r2 bucket create/list`, `r2 object put/get/delete`
D1	SQLite database	`d1 create/list`, `d1 execute --remote`, `d1 migrations apply --remote`
Queues	Message queues between Workers	`queues create/list/delete`, `queues consumer add/remove`
Vectorize	Vector DB for AI/embeddings	`vectorize create/list/delete`, `vectorize insert`
Hyperdrive	Connection pooling for external DBs	`hyperdrive create/list/delete`

Important: D1 commands default to the local dev database. Add --remote to target production:

wrangler d1 execute my-database --command "SELECT * FROM users" --remote

Secrets

wrangler secret put SECRET_NAME          # Prompts for value
echo "value" | wrangler secret put SECRET_NAME  # From stdin
wrangler secret list
wrangler secret bulk secrets.json        # Bulk upload

Common Workflows

CI/CD with GitHub Actions

# .github/workflows/deploy.yml
- name: Deploy to Cloudflare Pages
  uses: cloudflare/wrangler-action@v3
  with:
    apiToken: ${{ secrets.CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN }}
    accountId: ${{ secrets.CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID }}
    command: pages deploy out --project-name mysite

Note: In CI/CD (non-interactive), create the project first with wrangler pages project create — auto-creation only works interactively.

Tail Production Logs

wrangler tail my-worker --format pretty
wrangler pages deployment tail --project-name mysite

Troubleshooting

# Check auth
wrangler whoami

# Re-authenticate
wrangler logout && wrangler login

# Check wrangler version
wrangler --version

# Verbose output for debugging
WRANGLER_LOG=debug wrangler pages deploy out --project-name mysite

"Authentication error" — Run wrangler login or set CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN
"Project not found" — Check project name: wrangler pages project list
"Build output not found" — Verify build output directory exists. See references/pages-config.md for framework-to-directory mapping.
Pages deploy hangs — Check _headers/_redirects syntax (no YAML, plain text format)
Deploy includes too many files — Ensure --directory points to the build output only (e.g., out/, dist/), not the project root

Browser Rendering (Web Scraping & Crawling)

Budget alternative to Firecrawl using Cloudflare's headless Chrome on the edge. Free tier: 10 min/day, 5 crawls/day, 100 pages/crawl. Static fetches (--no-render) are free during beta.

Quick Start

# Single page to markdown
python3 ~/.claude/skills/cloudflare/scripts/cf_browser.py markdown https://example.com

# Free static fetch (no JS rendering, free during beta)
python3 ~/.claude/skills/cloudflare/scripts/cf_browser.py markdown https://example.com --no-render

# With filter pipeline (same as Firecrawl)
python3 ~/.claude/skills/cloudflare/scripts/cf_browser.py markdown https://docs.example.com | \
  python3 ~/.claude/skills/firecrawl/scripts/filter_web_results.py --sections "API" --max-chars 5000

# Multi-page crawl
python3 ~/.claude/skills/cloudflare/scripts/cf_browser.py crawl https://docs.example.com --limit 50

# Screenshot / PDF
python3 ~/.claude/skills/cloudflare/scripts/cf_browser.py screenshot https://example.com -o page.png
python3 ~/.claude/skills/cloudflare/scripts/cf_browser.py pdf https://example.com -o page.pdf

# AI-structured extraction (Workers AI, free tier included)
python3 ~/.claude/skills/cloudflare/scripts/cf_browser.py json https://example.com --prompt "Extract product names and prices"

# Extract links
python3 ~/.claude/skills/cloudflare/scripts/cf_browser.py links https://example.com

When to Use CF Browser Rendering vs Firecrawl vs Scrapling

Need	Best Tool	Why
Clean markdown, reliable	`firecrawl scrape --only-main-content`	Best markdown quality, optimized for LLMs
Cheap/free JS-rendered scrape	`cf_browser.py markdown URL`	Free 10 min/day, $0.09/hr after
Free static page fetch	`cf_browser.py markdown URL --no-render`	FREE during beta
Multi-page crawl on a budget	`cf_browser.py crawl URL`	5 free crawls/day, 100 pages each
Incremental re-crawl	`cf_browser.py crawl --modified-since`	Built-in cache, Firecrawl lacks this
Autonomous data finding (no URL)	`firecrawl_api.py agent`	No CF equivalent
Anti-bot / Cloudflare bypass	`scrapling --stealth`	Local, no API key
Web search + scrape	`firecrawl search --scrape`	No CF search API
Twitter/X content	`jina URL`	Only tool that works

Subcommands

Command	Description
`markdown`	Single page → markdown
`content`	Single page → rendered HTML
`crawl`	Multi-page async crawl (polls until done, or `--async`)
`status`	Check crawl job status
`cancel`	Cancel a running crawl
`screenshot`	Page screenshot (PNG)
`pdf`	Page → PDF
`links`	Extract all links
`scrape`	Extract elements via CSS selectors
`json`	AI-structured extraction (Workers AI)

Auth

Uses CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID + CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN (preferred) or CLOUDFLARE_GLOBAL_API_KEY + CLOUDFLARE_EMAIL (fallback). All in ~/.config/env/secrets.env.

Pricing

Tier	Browser Hours	Crawl Limits
Free	10 min/day	5 jobs/day, 100 pages/job
Paid	10 hr/month included, $0.09/hr after	100,000 pages/job
