Cloudflare marked its 16th Birthday Week with 46 announcements spanning open source, application security, AI agent economics, and developer platform upgrades. The week began with a new agentic CLI called cf, an open-source generation pipeline called Forge, and EmDash, a serverless CMS with sandboxed plugins. Tuesday focused on Cloudflare’s intention to become a public certificate authority and post-quantum security tools. Wednesday introduced Pay Per Use and the Monetization Gateway, creating an economic model for AI agents to pay creators when using their content. The week closed with features for faster connectivity and broader accessibility.


### [Cloudflare Containers, rebuilt to scale agent sandboxes](https://yomu.fyi/post/cloudflare-containers-rebuilt-to-scale-agent-sandboxes.md)

Cloudflare Containers have been rebuilt to meet the needs of agent sandboxes, which require on-demand creation, fast startup, and the ability to pause and resume. The new durable\_object scheduling policy lets application code choose each sandbox’s image and instance type at runtime, replacing the previous deploy-time configuration. A redesigned runtime reduces median container startup from over four seconds to 648 milliseconds, and filesystem snapshots are available in public beta for saving and restoring workspaces. Each container retains its Durable Object as a persistent, programmable controller that manages its lifecycle and outbound traffic. These changes make Containers a more flexible complement to Workers and Durable Objects for agents needing a full Linux workspace.

Cloudflare’s 2026 founders’ letter, marking the company’s 16th birthday, examines rapid changes in internet traffic driven by AI. Since mid-2025, new website creation has exploded, fueled by ‘vibe coding’ tools that allow non-programmers to build apps, with over 7 million developers now using Cloudflare’s platform. Automated traffic from AI agents and crawlers is projected to surpass human traffic by May 2026 and could reach 1,000 times human levels within five years. This surge risks a tragedy of the commons: agents consume resources from many sites but benefit only one, threatening small businesses that lack the information volume older competitors hold. Cloudflare proposes reducing crawler load by fetching only changed content and enabling creators to receive payment when agents use their content, alongside partnerships to shape a fairer internet.
