Usage Examples

Basic Usage (Workers AI)

import { CloudflareAGUIAdapter } from "@ag-ui/cloudflare";

const adapter = new CloudflareAGUIAdapter({
  accountId: process.env.CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID!,
  apiToken: process.env.CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN!,
  model: "@cf/meta/llama-3.1-8b-instruct",
});

for await (const event of adapter.execute(messages)) {
  console.log(event.type, event.data);
}

Deploy to Cloudflare Workers

import { handleCloudflareWorker } from "@ag-ui/cloudflare";

export default {
  async fetch(request, env, ctx) {
    return handleCloudflareWorker(request, env, {
      model: "@cf/meta/llama-3.1-8b-instruct",
    });
  },
};

With Cloudflare Agents SDK

import { Agent } from "agents";
import { createAgentsSDKAdapter } from "@ag-ui/cloudflare";

export class MyChatAgent extends Agent {
  async *onChatMessage(message: string) {
    await this.setState({ thinking: true });
    await this.sql`INSERT INTO history VALUES (${message})`;
    yield "Processing: " + message;
  }
}

const agent = new MyChatAgent(state, env);
const adapter = createAgentsSDKAdapter(agent, { syncState: true });

// Emits AG-UI events: TEXT_MESSAGE_CONTENT, STATE_SYNC, etc.
for await (const event of adapter.execute(messages)) {
  // Handle events
}

Next.js Behind Cloudflare CDN

import { normalizeRequest } from "@ag-ui/cloudflare";

export async function POST(request: NextRequest) {
  // Extract real client IP from Cloudflare headers
  const normalized = normalizeRequest(request);
  console.log("Real IP:", normalized.clientIp); // Not proxy IP!
}

Implementation Notes

Following Mastra Integration Pattern

This integration follows the same structure as the approved @ag-ui/mastra integration:

• Package name: @ag-ui/cloudflare (scoped)
• License: Apache-2.0
• Workspace dependencies: @ag-ui/core: workspace:*
• Build: tsup with CJS + ESM + DTS
• Examples in examples/ directory
• Comprehensive README

Cloudflare-Specific Considerations

Header Normalization:

• Prioritizes CF-Connecting-IP over X-Forwarded-For
• Handles CF-Ray for request tracing
• Detects proxy vs direct connections

Workers Runtime:

• Uses fetch API (not Node.js req/res)
• Supports WebSocket upgrades for Durable Objects
• SSE streaming with proper CORS headers

Agents SDK:

• Wraps Agent.onChatMessage() generators
• Emits STATE_SYNC events when state changes
• Tracks SQL queries for database integration

Dependencies

Peer Dependencies:

• @ag-ui/core: workspace:*
• @copilotkit/runtime: ^1.0.0 (optional)
• agents: ^0.1.0 (optional, for Agents SDK)

Dev Dependencies:

• @cloudflare/workers-types: ^4.20241112.0
• tsup: ^8.3.5
• TypeScript, Jest, etc.

Breaking Changes

None - this is a new integration.

Checklist

• Code follows project conventions
• TypeScript compiles without errors
• Package name matches AG-UI conventions (@ag-ui/cloudflare)
• Apache-2.0 license
• Examples provided and compile successfully
• README documentation comprehensive
• Prettier formatted
• Follows monorepo workspace structure
• All exports properly typed

Additional Context

This integration enables developers to:

1. Use Cloudflare Workers AI as a cost-effective LLM provider
2. Deploy AG-UI applications on Cloudflare's edge network
3. Build stateful agents with Cloudflare's new Agents SDK
4. Properly handle Cloudflare CDN headers in Next.js apps

All three integration types work independently or together, providing flexibility for different use cases.

Ooooooh, this is exciting!

[NathanTarbert]

This is awesome @Klammertime 🚀

We will start reviewing it shortly.

[maxkorp]

@Klammertime Ok first of all, seriously great work on this!

One request, can you add this to the dojo? Theres a few steps

• The agent server(s) the dojo makes requests to
  • This normally would go in the integrations/{integration}/examples folder (some are in slightly differently named folders but the idea is the same). There can be other things there, but if you look at for example the mastra example folder, you can see there is "agent" route per example from the dojo. You can also check how the pydantic-ai examples work for a similar set that touches most of the same examples. Make sure it can be configured by a PORT envvar, and also please make it bind to 0.0.0.0 vs localhost (for when we host the dojo), or at least make it configurable with a HOST envvar.
• apps/dojo/scripts/prep-dojo-everything.js
  • This is the setup for your examples. e.g. this would npm install, do a build, etc, whatever is needed to run the example
• apps/dojo/scripts/run-dojo-everything.js
  • This actually runs the services for the dojo. Add one here for your service, as well as a flag for CI to enable/disable it. Should be relatively straightforward to copy paste and figure out the structure. Also, give your service an explicit PORT to run at
• apps/dojo/src/agents.ts
  -This defines which agents are reachable by each integration.
• apps/dojo/src /env.ts
  • this just handles having a configurable URL for each server the dojo needs to reach out to
• apps/dojo/src/menu.ts
  • This is what actually controls the menu on the left sidebar of the dojo

Any new features would need to get added to typescript-sdk/apps/dojo/src/app/[integrationId]/feature/, you can see the various features there for the required structure.
To start I don't think we should add anything yet though, unless you're feeling super confident and it's not a large lift.

To run the dojo,

• cd to the apps/dojo directory,
• export GOOGLE_API_KEY and OPENAI_API_KEY (or whichever keys the examples you want to try need),
• if you want to run langgraph, add a .env to your integrations/langgraph/examples/typescript(orpython)/ folder
• run ./scripts/prep-dojo-everything.js && ./scripts/run-dojo-everything.js

both prep and run dojo everything can take a flag (mentioned above) to only run specific services. Some of the services will automatically die if they don't have the right env vars (e.g. pydantic-ai will die without an openai-api-key set, or langgraph will die without the .env file), so you'll need to either export/configure all of them (it should just be those 2 keys + the .env files for langgraph), or just run specific ones. the flag is --only comma,delimited,services,including,dojo

For example if you just wanted to run mastra, pydantic-ai, and cloudflare, you could call

./scripts/prep-dojo-everything.js --only dojo,mastra,pydantic-ai,cloudflare
./scripts/run-dojo-everything.js --only dojo,mastra,pydantic-ai,cloudflare

If you need help with any of that, or if it feels overwhelming at all (I know I just wall of texted pretty hard 😅 ) let me know and i can help get it all worked out.

Also, if you feel up to copying over the E2E tests in the dojo/e2e folder for any features you implement, that would be awesome

[Klammertime]

Thanks for the detailed instructions! I've added Cloudflare to the dojo.

What's been added:

• ✅ Express server in integrations/cloudflare/examples/server/ with agentic_chat endpoint
• ✅ Added to prep-dojo-everything.js (pnpm install)
• ✅ Added to run-dojo-everything.js (runs on PORT 4114)
• ✅ Registered in apps/dojo/src/agents.ts using HttpAgent
• ✅ Added CLOUDFLARE_URL to apps/dojo/src/env.ts
• ✅ Added "Cloudflare" to sidebar menu in apps/dojo/src/menu.ts

The server follows the same pattern as mastra/pydantic-ai - binds to 0.0.0.0:4114 and uses CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID and CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN env vars.

Currently starting with just agentic_chat to keep it simple initially. I'm setting up my Cloudflare credentials now to test it locally and make sure everything works, then I will add the e2e tests.

Let me know if you'd like me to add any other features or if anything looks off.

[maxkorp]

Wow, you already got that added, awesome!

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I just pushed a very large reorganization of the repo. Basically, this needs to get moved from typescript-sdk/integrations/cloudflare to integrations/cloudflare/typescript. The dojo is now in apps/dojo instead of typescript-sdk/apps/dojo.

If you need a hand git-surgery-ing things around let me know. I'm out the next 2 days but I can grab it when I get back if you need a hand. Honestly the easiest solution might be to just move your branch to master and copy paste the new version in place.

Cloudflare Integration - Progress Update

• Moved Cloudflare integration to new monorepo structure
• Updated pnpm-workspace.yaml to consistently include all integration examples via glob pattern (integrations/*/typescript/examples). Previously only Mastra examples were explicitly listed, but this might have been intentional, would love feedback.

Core Integration

• AG-UI Protocol Compliance - Proper AbstractAgent implementation with Observable<BaseEvent>
• Build Status - Clean TypeScript build, server running on port 4114
• Agent Examples - 3 working agents (agentic_chat, tool_based_generative_ui, agentic_generative_ui)

Full Feature Set Remains

1. Workers AI - Basic streaming chat with Llama models
2. WebSocket Support - Real-time bidirectional communication + Durable Objects
3. Agents SDK - Stateful agents with embedded SQL, state sync, and scheduling

Configuration

• Added cloudflare.json config (matches LangGraph pattern)
• Agent discovery utility for dynamic loading

Still To Do

• More agent examples (targeting 5-7 total like LangGraph)
• WebSocket usage example
• Agents SDK usage example (stateful + SQL)
• E2E testing with Dojo app
• Documentation updates

Why the Architecture

The integration has two layers:

• Core: AG-UI compliant CloudflareAgent for standard protocol usage
• Extended: WebSocket, Agents SDK, and custom adapters for Cloudflare-specific features

Everything builds clean and the three example agents work correctly with proper AG-UI event streaming.

Active Development Update
Quick note on PR etiquette: I'm used to workplaces that wanted PRs closed within a day, but I'm hoping it's okay to keep this open while I actively iterate on it. Please let me know if you'd prefer a different approach!

Current Work
I'm refactoring the Cloudflare integration into two separate packages to align with their product structure:
integrations/cloudflare-workers-ai/typescript/
integrations/cloudflare-agents-sdk/typescript/

These are distinct Cloudflare products and deserve separate integrations following the pattern of other AG-UI integrations (langgraph, mastra, etc.). Working on this now. Will update when ready for review.

[NathanTarbert]

Hey @Klammertime, no worries, it's completely fine to keep the PR open while you make improvements.

Thanks for providing such detailed updates!

[Klammertime]

No problem! Detailed updates help me keep track of what I've done :)
I actually went the with original plan of consolidating the Cloudflare integration work into a single package that supports both Workers AI and the Agents SDK.

The integration now follows the LangGraph pattern - one codebase with two menu entries in the Dojo. Both modes work great for local development with Express, and the package exports everything needed for production Workers deployment.

I did run into an issue with CopilotKit v1.10.6 where it doesn't send requests when threadId is present, which blocks some of the demos from working in the Dojo viewer. The backend agents work perfectly when tested with curl though, so anyone using the npm package with their own frontend should be good to go.

I updated models to use function-calling capable ones (Llama 3.3 70B) where needed, and added proper Agents SDK adapter with human-in-the-loop and tool-based generative UI examples.

All the details are in the commit message and the new README. Happy to answer any questions!
