Dev runs unattended agents on Cloudflare's Pi Durable harness: scrape, write, notify, no human
MicahBerkley · x · 2026-10-18
Developer MicahBerkley shares how Cloudflare's new Pi Durable Agent harness replaces agents that "die when the tab closes." The minimal, extendable harness runs the entire agent loop — transcript, inbox, model calls, tools, and retries — persistently.
Two live examples: apps that automatically scrape GTA 6 videos, pin them to a map, and identify real-world locations, plus a news site that wakes up, scans and verifies news, writes articles, and pushes notifications with zero manual input.
A concrete reference for developers building long-running, unattended agents.
