**Flue Framework** ([official site](https://flueframework.com/) / [1.0 Beta blog](https://flueframework.com/blog/flue-1-0-beta/) / [Cloudflare partnership blog](https://blog.cloudflare.com/agents-platform-flue-sdk/)) is a **TypeScript AI-agent harness framework from the Astro team**, published as **1.0 Beta the week of June 17, 2026**. Its slogan — **write once, deploy anywhere, use any LLM** — is backed by **25+ built-in channel integrations** (Slack, GitHub, Linear, Discord, Notion, Stripe, Shopify, Teams, Telegram, Twilio, WhatsApp, and more). **Three-layer stack**: - **Framework layer**: **Flue** (project structure, conventions, integrations, CLI) - **Harness layer**: **Pi** (the agentic loop — tool calls and context management) - **Runtime layer**: **[Cloudflare Agents SDK](../columns/cloudflare-durable-objects-2026-07)** (compute, state, storage) **The Cloudflare integration**: when Flue deploys to Cloudflare, **each agent becomes a Durable Object** (see our [Durable Objects deep dive](../columns/cloudflare-durable-objects-2026-07)). `runFiber()` / `stash()` / `onFiberRecovered()` **checkpoint state into SQLite** so agents resume cleanly after interruptions. It composes **`@cloudflare/codemode`** (Dynamic Workers that safely execute agent-generated TypeScript, **isolates in under 10 ms, ~$0.002 per load**), **`@cloudflare/shell`** (SQLite-backed virtual filesystem), and **`@cloudflare/dynamic-workflows`** (persistent workflows with retry and external-approval support). **Five core primitives**: 1. **Agents** — autonomous, context-aware 2. **Workflows** — deterministic step execution 3. **Sandboxes** — safe tool-execution environments 4. **Channels** — Slack / GitHub / Linear / Discord / Notion / Stripe / Shopify — 25+ 5. **Durable Streams** — event transport where accepted work never disappears **Supporting layers**: **`@flue/react`** (`useFlueAgent` / `useFlueWorkflow` hooks for direct front-end integration), **`@flue/sdk`** (client for talking to deployed agents), **`flue add`** (shadcn-style integration scaffolding), **Subagents**, **Tools & Skills** (typed API actions plus reusable expertise packages), **[MCP](../columns/agmsg-cross-agent-messaging-cli-ai-2026-06) integration**, and **observability** via OpenTelemetry / Braintrust / Sentry. **Deploy targets**: Cloudflare Workers, Node.js, AWS, Docker, Railway, Render, Vercel, Fly, GitLab CI, SST. **Databases**: PostgreSQL, Supabase, MongoDB, MySQL, Redis. **Backstory**: Flue **started life as the internal engine for AI workflows inside Astro's own GitHub repos** and was subsequently generalized. The **Astro team is known for exceptional developer experience**, and that shows up in the CLI and integration polish. **Positioning**: Flue is the **first major agent framework built on Cloudflare's Agents SDK**, sits inside the same **harness-driven architecture family** as [Claude Code](../columns/claude-code-agent-view-parallel-orchestration-2026), and doesn't belong to the [LangChain / LlamaIndex / AutoGen / CrewAI / Mastra](../columns/agmsg-cross-agent-messaging-cli-ai-2026-06) lineage — its wedge is **the framework-layer polish plus the breadth of integrations**. The official demo implements a bug-triage agent **in under 25 lines**.
