Browser Run - Run more headless browsers concurrently with Browser Run
Browser Run lets you automate headless browsers on Cloudflare's global network. Run full browser sessions for interactive workflows, or use Quick Actions for one-request tasks such as screenshots, PDFs, and capturing page content. If you are on the Workers Paid plan, your default limits are now higher: Limit Previous New Concurrent browsers 120 200 New browser instances / second 1 3 Quick Actions requests / second 10 30 You can now run hundreds of browser sessions in parallel, laun
Cloudflare Fundamentals - Optional OAuth scopes
We're announcing the GA of Optional OAuth Scopes. OAuth client developers can now classify configured scopes as required or optional in the Cloudflare dashboard. By default, all configured scopes remain required . What's New Optional Scopes: OAuth clients can now mark configured scopes as optional, allowing applications to request them without requiring users to approve them.

WAF - Leaked credentials detection now scans Authorization headers
Leaked credentials detection now scans the Authorization request header for Basic Authentication credentials. Previously, the detection only inspected request bodies, query strings, and headers for well-known web applications or custom detection locations, which meant credentials sent through HTTP Basic Authentication were not covered by default. This new default scan location decodes the Authorization: Basic <credentials> header and compares the extracted username and password against Cloudflar
LibreDB Studio: an open source, self-hosted SQL IDE for PostgreSQL in the browser
LibreDB Studio is an MIT-licensed, self-hosted SQL IDE for PostgreSQL that runs in the browser and deploys as a container or Helm chart. It is deployed next to the database it manages, as a container, a Helm chart or an npm package, rather than installed on each developer's machine. PostgreSQL is its reference implementation: the provider is built on node-postgres, and the other supported engines follow the patterns established there. On a PostgreSQL connection the editor uses pooled connections
Vercel Agent is now available in Slack code channels
Vercel Agent now works in Slack code channels, a new kind of channel launched today for working with a coding agent. Anyone in the channel can follow the work, give Agent new instructions, and review the code it writes. Choose from the Slack sidebar, select Vercel as the agent, and describe what you need to get started. You can also ask Agent to create one from an existing channel or thread. It brings that context with it to the new channel.Create a code channel Use code channels to investigate
