CLOUDFLARE WORKERS AND CONTAINERS NOW SUPPORT INBOUND TCP CONNECTIONS AND GRPC

Cloudflare is adding support for inbound TCP connections to its Workers platform, along with new ways to run gRPC applications. The features are launching in private beta, with broader availability planned afterward. Developers can now deploy gRPC servers written in any language to Cloudflare's network of 330-plus locations, and Workers can also translate between gRPC and gRPC-web so existing clients and servers require no changes.

YOUR AGENT CAN NOW DEBUG WORKERS WITH LOCAL TRACING

Cloudflare now automatically captures OpenTelemetry traces for local Worker invocations when developers run wrangler dev or vite dev. When the tooling detects a coding-agent session, it directs the agent to the Local Explorer API, a local debugging interface where the agent can query traces, inspect bindings, and examine state in D1, KV, R2, Durable Objects, and Workflows.

SMALLER, FASTER, SAFER: RUNNING KIMI AND GLM AT SCALE

Cloudflare has detailed three techniques it uses to run large AI models like Moonshot's Kimi K2 and Z.ai's GLM on its Workers AI platform more efficiently. The company stores the KV cache in 8-bit floating point instead of 16-bit, which doubles the context capacity for Kimi K2.6 from roughly 686,000 tokens to 1.37 million and reduces cost per token by about 30%. For GLM, Cloudflare compresses model weights from 8-bit to 4-bit integers, shrinking the checkpoint from 705 GB to 421 GB and boosting single-request decode speed by 55%. A third layer, KV cache integrity checking, adds under 1% overhead on throughput and tail latency while preventing requests from reading data belonging to other users.
