Cloudflare releases @cloudflare/computer agent runtime in Early Preview
Cloudflare released an Early Preview of the open-source @cloudflare/computer agent runtime on 3 August 2026, dynamically orchestrating between isolates and full Linux containers with a SQLite-backed virtual filesystem and Workspace instances inside Durable Objects.
Previous state
The announced @cloudflare/computer open-source agent runtime was not available in the described Early Preview state.
Current state
Developers can evaluate the Early Preview runtime, which can dynamically orchestrate execution between isolates and full Linux containers, expose a SQLite-backed virtual filesystem, and instantiate a Workspace inside a Durable Object.
Affected users
Who needs to care
Developers evaluating Cloudflare-hosted agent runtimes that need isolated execution, container capabilities or a persistent workspace abstraction.
Required response
What to do
Treat the runtime as Early Preview and validate compatibility, persistence and isolation assumptions before depending on it for production workloads.
Evidence boundary
What the source does not prove
The source proves Early Preview availability and the described runtime mechanics. It does not establish General Availability, production SLA or stability commitments, mandatory adoption, or that all Cloudflare Agents use this runtime.
