From the author

Deploy applications and infrastructure to Cloudflare using Workers, Pages, and related platform services. Use when the user asks to deploy, host, publish, or set up a project on Cloudflare.

AutoGineer summary

Written by AutoGineer from the skill’s own files, not by the author

Cloudflare Deploy provides a centralized framework for developers to build, host, and manage projects on Cloudflare. It covers the entire ecosystem, including serverless compute (Workers), full-stack web hosting (Pages), persistent storage (D1, R2, KV), and AI-powered agent development. The skill includes decision trees to help select the right product for specific needs, authentication guidance, and troubleshooting steps for deployment issues.

What it does

Provides decision trees to select the appropriate Cloudflare product for compute, storage, AI, or networking.
Offers guidance on authenticating with the Cloudflare platform via CLI or CI/CD.
Includes a comprehensive product index for quick reference to documentation.
Provides specific patterns and API references for building stateful AI agents using the Agents SDK.
Offers troubleshooting steps for network-related deployment failures.
Supports infrastructure-as-code integration with tools like Pulumi and Terraform.

When to use it

When you need to deploy, host, or publish a project to Cloudflare.
When you are unsure which Cloudflare service (e.g., Workers vs. Pages) best fits your application requirements.
When you need to build stateful, globally distributed AI agents.
When you encounter network errors or timeouts during the deployment process.
When setting up persistent storage or database solutions within the Cloudflare ecosystem.

Advantages

Consolidates fragmented documentation into a single, navigable resource.
Simplifies product selection through clear, use-case-driven decision trees.
Provides actionable code patterns for complex tasks like AI agent development.
Addresses common deployment friction points like authentication and network sandboxing.

Usage examples

“I need to deploy a full-stack web application to Cloudflare. Which service should I use?”: The agent will guide you to use Cloudflare Pages for full-stack web apps with Git-based deployments.
“How do I build an AI chat agent on Cloudflare?”: The agent will provide the Agents SDK reference, including the AIChatAgent class and examples for streaming responses and managing message history.
“My deployment is failing with a network timeout error. What should I do?”: The agent will advise you to rerun the deployment command with the sandbox_permissions=require_escalated flag to bypass network restrictions.
“How do I store relational data for my worker?”: The agent will recommend using D1 for SQLite-based relational storage or Hyperdrive for connecting to existing Postgres/MySQL databases.

Install

Download the skill as a ZIP:

Unzip it into the cross-client skills folder of your project:

mkdir -p .agents/skills && unzip cloudflare-deploy.zip -d .agents/skills

Documentation by OpenAI

Cloudflare Deploy

Consolidated skill for building on the Cloudflare platform. Use decision trees below to find the right product, then load detailed references.

Prerequisites

When sandboxing blocks the deployment network calls, rerun with sandbox_permissions=require_escalated.
The deployment might take a few minutes. Use appropriate timeout values.

Authentication (Required Before Deploy)

Verify auth before wrangler deploy, wrangler pages deploy, or npm run deploy:

npx wrangler whoami    # Shows account if authenticated

Not authenticated? → references/wrangler/auth.md

Interactive/local: wrangler login (one-time OAuth)
CI/CD: Set CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN env var

Troubleshooting

Escalated Network Access

If deployment fails due to network issues (timeouts, DNS errors, connection resets), rerun the deploy with escalated permissions (use sandbox_permissions=require_escalated). The deploy requires escalated network access when sandbox networking blocks outbound requests.

Example guidance to the user:

The deploy needs escalated network access to deploy to Cloudflare. I can rerun the command with escalated permissions—want me to proceed?

C3 (create-cloudflare)

Official CLI for scaffolding Cloudflare Workers and Pages projects with templates, TypeScript, and instant deployment.

Quick Start

# Interactive (recommended for first-time)
npm create cloudflare@latest my-app

# Worker (API/WebSocket/Cron)
npm create cloudflare@latest my-api -- --type=hello-world --ts

# Pages (static/SSG/full-stack)
npm create cloudflare@latest my-site -- --type=web-app --framework=astro --platform=pages

Platform Decision Tree

What are you building?

├─ API / WebSocket / Cron / Email handler
│   └─ Workers (default) - no --platform flag needed
│       npm create cloudflare@latest my-api -- --type=hello-world

├─ Static site / SSG / Documentation
│   └─ Pages - requires --platform=pages
│       npm create cloudflare@latest my-site -- --type=web-app --framework=astro --platform=pages

├─ Full-stack app (Next.js/Remix/SvelteKit)
│   ├─ Need Durable Objects, Queues, or Workers-only features?
│   │   └─ Workers (default)
│   └─ Otherwise use Pages for git integration and branch previews
│       └─ Add --platform=pages

└─ Convert existing project
    └─ npm create cloudflare@latest . -- --type=pre-existing --existing-script=./src/worker.ts

Critical: Pages projects require --platform=pages flag. Without it, C3 defaults to Workers.

Interactive Flow

When run without flags, C3 prompts in this order:

Project name - Directory to create (defaults to current dir with .)
Application type - hello-world, web-app, demo, pre-existing, remote-template
Platform - workers (default) or pages (for web apps only)
Framework - If web-app: next, remix, astro, react-router, solid, svelte, etc.
TypeScript - yes (recommended) or no
Git - Initialize repository? yes or no
Deploy - Deploy now? yes or no (requires wrangler login)

Installation Methods

# NPM
npm create cloudflare@latest

# Yarn
yarn create cloudflare
