What this skill does


# Cloudflare Worker Base Stack

**Production-tested**: cloudflare-worker-base-test (https://cloudflare-worker-base-test.webfonts.workers.dev)
**Last Updated**: 2025-10-20
**Status**: Production Ready ✅

---

## Quick Start (5 Minutes)

### 1. Scaffold Project

```bash
npm create cloudflare@latest my-worker -- \
  --type hello-world \
  --ts \
  --git \
  --deploy false \
  --framework none
```

**Why these flags:**
- `--type hello-world`: Clean starting point
- `--ts`: TypeScript support
- `--git`: Initialize git repo
- `--deploy false`: Don't deploy yet (configure first)
- `--framework none`: We'll add Vite ourselves

### 2. Install Dependencies

```bash
cd my-worker
npm install [email protected]
npm install -D @cloudflare/[email protected] vite@^7.0.0
```

**Version Notes:**
- `[email protected]`: Latest stable (verified 2025-10-20)
- `@cloudflare/[email protected]`: Latest stable, fixes HMR race condition
- `vite`: Latest version compatible with Cloudflare plugin

### 3. Configure Wrangler

Create or update `wrangler.jsonc`:

```jsonc
{
  "$schema": "node_modules/wrangler/config-schema.json",
  "name": "my-worker",
  "main": "src/index.ts",
  "account_id": "YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID", // Find this in your Cloudflare dashboard (Workers & Pages -> Overview).
  "compatibility_date": "2025-10-11",
  "observability": {
    "enabled": true
  },
  "assets": {
    "directory": "./public/",
    "binding": "ASSETS",
    "not_found_handling": "single-page-application",
    "run_worker_first": ["/api/*"]
  }
}
```

**CRITICAL: `run_worker_first` Configuration**
- Without this, SPA fallback intercepts API routes
- API routes return `index.html` instead of JSON
- Source: [workers-sdk #8879](https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-sdk/issues/8879)

### 4. Configure Vite

Create `vite.config.ts`:

```typescript
import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import { cloudflare } from '@cloudflare/vite-plugin'

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    cloudflare({
      // Optional: Configure the plugin if needed
    }),
  ],
})
```

**Why @cloudflare/vite-plugin:**
- Official plugin from Cloudflare
- Supports HMR with Workers
- Enables local development with Miniflare
- Version 1.13.13 fixes "A hanging Promise was canceled" error

## The Four-Step Setup Process

### Step 1: Create Hono App with API Routes

Create `src/index.ts`:

```typescript
/**
 * Cloudflare Worker with Hono
 *
 * CRITICAL: Export pattern to prevent build errors
 * ✅ CORRECT: export default app
 * ❌ WRONG:   export default { fetch: app.fetch }
 */

import { Hono } from 'hono'

// Type-safe environment bindings
type Bindings = {
  ASSETS: Fetcher
}

const app = new Hono<{ Bindings: Bindings }>()

/**
 * API Routes
 * Handled BEFORE static assets due to run_worker_first config
 */
app.get('/api/hello', (c) => {
  return c.json({
    message: 'Hello from Cloudflare Workers!',
    timestamp: new Date().toISOString(),
  })
})

app.get('/api/health', (c) => {
  return c.json({
    status: 'ok',
    version: '1.0.0',
    environment: c.env ? 'production' : 'development',
  })
})

/**
 * Fallback to Static Assets
 * Any route not matched above is served from public/ directory
 */
app.all('*', (c) => {
  return c.env.ASSETS.fetch(c.req.raw)
})

/**
 * Export the Hono app directly (ES Module format)
 * This is the correct pattern for Cloudflare Workers with Hono + Vite
 */
export default app
```

**Why This Export Pattern:**
- Source: [honojs/hono #3955](https://github.com/honojs/hono/issues/3955)
- Using `{ fetch: app.fetch }` causes: "Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'map')"
- Exception: If you need scheduled/tail handlers, use Module Worker format:
  ```typescript
  export default {
    fetch: app.fetch,
    scheduled: async (event, env, ctx) => { /* ... */ }
  }
  ```

### Step 2: Create Static Frontend

Create `public/index.html`:

```html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
  <title>My Worker App</title>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="/styles.css">
</head>
<body>
  <div class="container">
    <h1>Cloudflare Worker + Static Assets</h1>
    <button onclick="testAPI()">Test API</button>
    <pre id="output"></pre>
  </div>
  <script src="/script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
```

Create `public/script.js`:

```javascript
async function testAPI() {
  const response = await fetch('/api/hello')
  const data = await response.json()
  document.getElementById('output').textContent = JSON.stringify(data, null, 2)
}
```

Create `public/styles.css`:

```css
body {
  font-family: system-ui, -apple-system, sans-serif;
  max-width: 800px;
  margin: 40px auto;
  padding: 20px;
}

button {
  background: #0070f3;
  color: white;
  border: none;
  padding: 12px 24px;
  border-radius: 6px;
  cursor: pointer;
}

pre {
  background: #f5f5f5;
  padding: 16px;
  border-radius: 6px;
  overflow-x: auto;
}
```

### Step 3: Update Package Scripts

Update `package.json`:

```json
{
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "wrangler dev",
    "deploy": "wrangler deploy",
    "cf-typegen": "wrangler types"
  }
}
```

### Step 4: Test & Deploy

```bash
# Generate TypeScript types for bindings
npm run cf-typegen

# Start local dev server (http://localhost:8787)
npm run dev

# Deploy to production
npm run deploy
```

## Known Issues Prevention

This skill prevents **6 documented issues**:

### Issue #1: Export Syntax Error
**Error**: "Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'map')"
**Source**: [honojs/hono #3955](https://github.com/honojs/hono/issues/3955)
**Prevention**: Use `export default app` (NOT `{ fetch: app.fetch }`)

### Issue #2: Static Assets Routing Conflicts
**Error**: API routes return `index.html` instead of JSON
**Source**: [workers-sdk #8879](https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-sdk/issues/8879)
**Prevention**: Add `"run_worker_first": ["/api/*"]` to wrangler.jsonc

### Issue #3: Scheduled/Cron Not Exported
**Error**: "Handler does not export a scheduled() function"
**Source**: [honojs/vite-plugins #275](https://github.com/honojs/vite-plugins/issues/275)
**Prevention**: Use Module Worker format when needed:
```typescript
export default {
  fetch: app.fetch,
  scheduled: async (event, env, ctx) => { /* ... */ }
}
```

### Issue #4: HMR Race Condition
**Error**: "A hanging Promise was canceled" during development
**Source**: [workers-sdk #9518](https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-sdk/issues/9518)
**Prevention**: Use `@cloudflare/[email protected]` or later

### Issue #5: Static Assets Upload Race
**Error**: Non-deterministic deployment failures in CI/CD
**Source**: [workers-sdk #7555](https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-sdk/issues/7555)
**Prevention**: Use Wrangler 4.x+ with retry logic (fixed in recent versions)

### Issue #6: Service Worker Format Confusion
**Error**: Using deprecated Service Worker format
**Source**: Cloudflare migration guide
**Prevention**: Always use ES Module format (shown in Step 1)

cupynumeric-migration-readiness

Included

Pre-migration readiness assessor for porting NumPy to cuPyNumeric. Use BEFORE substantial porting work begins when the user asks whether code will scale on GPU, whether they should migrate to cuPyNumeric, which NumPy patterns transfer cleanly, what must be refactored before porting, or mentions pre-port assessment, scaling analysis, or refactor planning. Inspect the user's source code, look up NumPy usage, cross-reference the cuPyNumeric API support manifest, and distinguish distributed-scaling-friendly patterns from blockers such as unsupported APIs, scalar synchronization, host round-trips, Python/object-heavy control flow, shape/data-dependent branching, and in-place mutation hazards. Produce a verdict of READY, LIGHT REFACTOR, SIGNIFICANT REFACTOR, or NOT RECOMMENDED, with concrete refactor pointers.
