Cloudflare Workers Skill

Build edge functions and applications on Cloudflare's global network.

When to Use

• Creating serverless edge functions
• Building API endpoints
• Handling requests at the edge
• Implementing middleware

Critical Rules

Worker Structure

• Export default object with fetch handler
• Use TypeScript for type safety
• Handle errors with proper responses
• Use Request/Response Web APIs

Platform APIs

• Use KV for key-value storage
• Use Durable Objects for state
• Leverage Cache API for caching
• Use R2 for object storage

Performance

• Keep cold starts minimal
• Use streaming for large responses
• Minimize dependencies
• Bundle efficiently with wrangler

Development

• Test locally with wrangler dev
• Use miniflare for testing
• Set up proper TypeScript types
• Configure wrangler.toml correctly

Examples

Good

export interface Env {
  KV_NAMESPACE: KVNamespace;
  DB: D1Database;
}

export default {
  async fetch(
    request: Request,
    env: Env,
    ctx: ExecutionContext
  ): Promise<Response> {
    const url = new URL(request.url);
    
    if (url.pathname === '/api/data') {
      const data = await env.KV_NAMESPACE.get('key');
      return Response.json({ data });
    }
    
    return new Response('Not Found', { status: 404 });
  }
};
