Cloudflare Demonstrates Moltworker, Bringing Self-Hosted AI Agents To The Edge
InfoQ, Saturday, February 7th, 2026
Cloudflare has introduced Moltworker, an open-source implementation that enables running Moltbot-a self-hosted personal AI agent-on Cloudflare's Developer Platform, removing the need for dedicated local hardware.
Moltbot, recently renamed from Clawdbot, is designed to operate as a personal assistant through chat applications, integrating with AI models, browsers, and third-party tools while remaining user-controlled.
Moltworker adapts Moltbot to Cloudflare Workers by combining an entrypoint Worker with isolated Sandbox containers. The Worker acts as an API router and administration layer, while the Moltbot runtime and its integrations execute inside Sandboxes. Persistent state, including conversation memory and session data, is stored in Cloudflare R2, addressing the ephemeral nature of containers.
