Hi, are versions of

@cloudflare/workers-types

@cloudflare/workers-types

released in hand with a new compatibility date? For example,

@cloudflare/workers-types

@cloudflare/workers-types

4.20250429 was released, does that mean you can now set 2025-04-29 as the

compatibility_date

compatibility_date

in Wrangler config? I know you can put there any date and it automatically falls back to the nearest one but I would like to move only to actually existing ones and don't know how to find out that a new date is available.

interesting. i guess you'll be able to use this directly even without the playground ai? let's say i create a worker with one prompt "search for X product and give me the price", then I pass a list of shops, i would like the worker to use the same prompt for each website in the list so i can find the shop with the cheapest price.

Rui Figueira•4/29/25, 8:22 AM

Yes, playground AI uses workers AI under the hood, so it should be doable. Playwright MCP contributes a set of tools that can be called by workers AI: https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers-ai/features/function-calling/

that sounds weird - so you're clicking on an existing Worker, then the edit code button, and instead of seeing your code you see the hello world template?

kaelys.js•4/29/25, 4:10 PM

For better clarification, edit code then make some changes and hit “deploy” and the prior deployed version persists and the changes don’t save. Tried in Chrome/safari and new/existing worker and the issue is there.

For now I switched to deploy via wrangler which works fine.

can multiple workers share the same domain? For example, let's say I have a frontend worker and an api worker. I want my frontend to be at myurl.com and my api to be at myurl.com/api. Is that possible?

Tobias•4/29/25, 5:08 PM

yes using https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/configuration/routing/routes/

Cloudflare Docs

Routes allow users to map a URL pattern to a Worker. When a request comes in to the Cloudflare network that matches the specified URL pattern, your Worker will execute on that route.

Here’s what I’m trying to do and I got it partially working;

I’m not sure where the best place to ask is.

We are a potential enterprise customer (CF) and use GCP. One of the biggest limiting factors for us in signing for enterprise and one of our projects is not being able to run a worker from a specific geo/colo.

It seems to work using a geo steered LB with an inner and outer worker so the execution of the inner worker can be shifted to say LHR instead of SEA (my closest colo).

Is there anything wrong with doing this or a reason why it won’t work?

I'm not sure what exactly you mean with using LBs in that way, but if you're going to go Enterprise, Cloudflare has a Enterprise only data localization suite that you can use to control exactly which locations can decrypt and serve your requests: https://developers.cloudflare.com/data-localization/regional-services/

Cloudflare Docs

Regional Services

Regional Services gives you the ability to accommodate regional restrictions by choosing which subset of data centers decrypt and service HTTPS traffic.

So I recently tried building and deploying my backend and front end (node, next and typescript) into a Wrangler Worker. For some reason my worker's page is stuck on my "Loading Session" infinite loop because the /api/auth/session request isn't being made (from the network tabs and from logs). Is there a way I can look deeper into why this is happening?

I just found out that websites with workers + assets tend to be slower than pages on sequent navigations, since assets don't have cache with max-age

Will there be a way to set that assets return with specific cache-control value? It's weird that there isn't an option to add it directly, considering that most projects with frameworks build assets with max-age headers in mind.

Afternoon,
I have a workers paid plan, for a pro site.
I'd like to enable Workers Logpush for my worker.
If I try to enable it via wrangler.toml I get:

You do not have access to use Logpush. Please ensure it is enabled. If you are an Enterprise user, reach out to your account team. [code: 10023]

You do not have access to use Logpush. Please ensure it is enabled. If you are an Enterprise user, reach out to your account team. [code: 10023]

If i try to enable it with a CURL request I get
{"code": 1004, "message": "creating a new job is not allowed: exceeded max jobs allowed"}{"code": 1004, "message": "creating a new job is not allowed: exceeded max jobs allowed"}
When i try to list all log push jobs I get:
{"errors": [], "messages": [], "result": [], "success": true}{"errors": [], "messages": [], "result": [], "success": true}
I have no Logpush entry in my administrative UI
I am a super administrator.
Has anyone else experienced issues enabling workers logpush for a non-enterprise account.
So far searching cloudflare knowledge base and discord has only yielded suggestion that we could be on an older 'paid' worker plan somehow.
Many thanks in advance if you have any pointers
Apologies if I'm asking in the wrong channel

I managed for POC and curiosity to:
- Use a LB with Geosteering to UK and a 100% weighted pool
- Tie the pool endpoint to an “inner” worker say “lhr.domain.com”
- have another worker say “api.domain.com” do a sub request to that worker, the result is that the colo of that worker ends up being “LHC” — most of the time. So the inner worker is executed out of that colo, where without the LB setup it would be executed at least for me generally in SEA or YVR depending ofc.

Should that even work? It’s more of a poc than anything.

The goal here is to utilize workers and the browser rendering api to spider out customers site to scan for multi region compliance (with their permission ofc). We currently use aws serverless for this but a CF solution is in my experience always simpler and more maintainable and also more cost effective.

But unless there’s a decent way outside enterprise we may stick with what we have.

We also heavily use analytics, 30k customers recording page view / consent events. Works great.

The central problem is that we sacrifice full control (such as regional execution of worker, and deciding where analytics data is housed, say EU for GDPR compliance for starters) for less engineering efforts overall.

It’s a tough sell to move up to enterprise (discussions already happened back in Dec) for some on these reasons.

vite has a assetsDirassetsDir option, ideally cloudflare (via the vite plugin) should add a cache header to all files under that path.

Hey CF Team!

Just got done reading up on the "Simple, scalable, and global: Containers are coming to Cloudflare Workers"

Im truly amazed at the progress and rate of new feature releases!

One question that came up when reading was:

Will there be a maximum wall-clock limit on containers execution for statefull workloads?

We have some jobs that take a while, and for this reason had to be executed outside the CF platform (currently fly.io), the question is, would this new feature be suitable to run a container that, for example, runs some automation steps that take aproximatelly 40 minutes before exiting?

I know its probably early to ask about platform limits, but i'd love to know more

hello!
It seems there is a limit in the number of characters for tagging a worker version (We are using gradual deployments)
is that by design? we append the environment naming in the tag and this create artificial issues where we have to create shorter tags. Where is this documented? Can we suggest to revise this limit?

on paid plan, CPUexecution time is 30s?

i have a audio processing worker that uses 3rd party API to scribe 4-15s and i pipe the response to another llm api call that can take 8s all in one worker.

The dead times waiting for api are not counted only the cpu execution time?

how do i see workers total cpu usage time and memory usage time for each call.
I want to make sure my worker is not going to run out of time if i add more llm api cools on the same worker
thx
