Computer
The Computer by Cloudflare package introduces a new way to build and scale AI agents by providing them with their own dedicated 'computer' environment. Instead of relying solely on heavy, expensive containers, this runtime intelligently switches between lightweight isolates and container sandboxes based on the task requirements, such as file manipulation or native binary execution. This approach allows developers to scale agents to millions of concurrent instances while maintaining cost-efficiency and performance. By offering a durable, unified filesystem that stays in sync across different execution backends, the library simplifies the development of complex agentic systems. It provides developers with fine-grained control, auditability, and a clear paper trail of agent actions, making it a robust solution for production-grade autonomous workloads. The project is currently available as an open-source library, enabling developers to build agents that are secure, scalable, and capable of handling diverse tasks.
