# Cloudflare OS: An AI productivity environment

Cloudflare OS is an "operating system" for AI productivity originally developed for use inside Cloudflare. A large portion of Cloudflare's workforce -- from engineering to sales and everything in between -- uses Cloudflare OS every day to help them do their jobs.

This is not a traditional computer operating system. We use the term "operating system" in two senses:

* An operating system for *the company* to be productive with AI, in a way that is safe, so that the security team can sleep at night.
* An operating system for AI workloads, analogous to the sense in which a traditional operating system manages compute workloads.

Cloudflare OS provides three things in particular:

1. An agent chat UI where you can ask agents to do tasks, preloaded with knowledge about how your company operates.
2. Sandboxed application development, so that you can ask agents to build "gadgets" (small personal apps) and safely share what you've built with others.
3. A security framework, called Gatekeepers, that applies guardrails to both agents and apps such that non-technical users can safely "go nuts" and nothing bad will happen.

We are making Cloudflare OS open source so that others can copy it and customize it for their own company. The idea is not that your company uses Cloudflare OS, but rather that you make it "*Your Company* OS".

## Quick Start

To quickly run Cloudflare OS locally, [install pnpm](https://pnpm.io/), then do:

    pnpm run-local

Then visit: http://localhost:8787

This runs the whole stack locally on wrangler and workerd. This is not meant for production use, but is a quick way to see what the product does.

Alternatively, you can [deploy to your Cloudflare account](https://os.cloudflare.app/deploy).

(More options at the end of this readme.)

### What to try

Try prompts like:

* "Make slides for my upcoming meeting with a customer." (This will use the built-in slides blueprint.)
* "Make a collaborative whiteboard app." (This will create a new app from scratch.)
* "Make a tic tac toe game." followed by "I'll be X and you be O. I've made my first move. Your turn."
* "Make an issue dashboard for this GitHub repo." (Attach a repo; requires that the GitHub integration is configured.)
* "Fix the typos in this Google Doc." (Attach a doc; requires that the Google integration is configured.)

### WARNING: Early access

Cloudflare OS is in a state of heavy development. This repository is actually version 2, a complete rewrite taking what we learned from version 1 and putting it on a new foundation.

As of the August 2026 release, Cloudflare OS v2 is very capable, but still has many rough edges. We know, and we're working on it. For now, consider this an "early access" release.
