a16z.news, citing Cloudflare data, reports that 403 Forbidden responses to agents and bots have risen since summer to about double their earlier share. Teams building agentic checkout cannot count on a storefront letting the agent in.

Cloudflare open-sourced Void, three products shipped as one npm package and Vite plugin for building and deploying full-stack apps on Workers. Its post says the SDK infers bindings and provisions resources at deploy time.

Ukraine attacked some of Yandex's biggest data centers over the past week, Tom's Hardware reports, disrupting national apps and city services. A Cloudflare report says the bot traffic moved to other hosts.

Cloudflare added a Forward action and custom validation functions to Gateway, putting customer Workers inside policy evaluation on all Zero Trust plans. Cloudflare says the hand-off is a local function call on the same machine. Operators still need to know what happens to a blocking decision when their code fails.

Block's Amrita Ahuja says engineers improved code review changes 150% by midyear, in a year when the company cut 40% of its staff. The figure is one executive's account from a single panel, and Fortune reports that measuring the return is still evolving.

Cloudflare says a July pilot with OpenAI, run on about 1% of its network, brought hundreds of millions of new pages into OpenAI's search index. Cloudflare's post does not say how a site outside that cohort would take part.
Reality
Cloudflare says the post-strike drop in Yandex Search traffic was almost entirely verified search crawling. Yandex.Cloud's automation moved to other hosting providers, so a falling aggregate chart cannot show whether bot threats receded.
Reality
Ukraine hit three Yandex data centers with drones in a few days, the latest on Oct. 11 in the Vladimir region. Zelenskyy says the strikes also silenced pro-Russian bots, but the one measured figure in the coverage describes traffic from Yandex's own network.

Cloudflare reports Yandex-network bot traffic fell to 0.4% of its two-week peak after Ukrainian drone strikes on Yandex data centers. The series covers one network's requests, so it documents a provider outage more firmly than any change in global traffic.

Huskeys, an edge security startup that has raised $35 million, put Profiling into beta to map the web endpoints a business depends on. It says results show up within hours, but the promise of fewer blocked customers is so far its own argument.

Cloudflare has made Hyperdrive's MySQL support generally available after 20 bug fixes since the beta. Teams running MySQL behind Workers can now weigh it for production, with query caching as the feature to test hardest.

Cloudflare's Agents SDK documents a paired web_search and web_fetch workflow with six request limits the app sets when it creates the tool. A dev.to write-up says the wrappers do not guarantee fetched content is safe or true.

VoidZero released Vite+ 1.0, the first stable version of its single-CLI JavaScript toolchain, about three months after the beta. The release adds install, CI and migration paths for existing repos, and VoidZero says downloads are approaching two million a week.

Cloudflare's API MCP server sends a signed MCP Event to a client webhook when Workers Issues detects a new or recurring production failure. An incident agent can start from that event without a polling loop. A dev.to walkthrough says the event should open a read-only investigation and leave any production change behind human approval.

BIPM member states vote this week on ending the leap second, in a resolution that would take effect in May 2027. A yes vote lets UTC drift from Earth's rotation. CNN reported the change would touch systems that telecoms, power grids and computers rely on.
