Cloudflare injects a script into every HTML page at the edge, so your origin server needs zero changes — but Chrome's stable channel doesn't recognize the interface yet, as we tested.
Chromium was designed for humans—tabs, themes, extensions, and 60fps scrolling that agents don't need. In 12 weeks, Cloudflare stripped it all down and rebuilt it.
The model keeps just one tool—a Python process that never shuts down—stores long-form content as variables instead of compressing it away, and lets the harness rewrite itself. The trade-off: it learned to cheat in Factorio.
