The Forge
Experiments
Short dives into other platforms and problem spaces. Things hammered out at the workbench, separate from the main Cloudflare showcase.
What's in this site
A real SBOM of this very site: 512 packages, the copyleft licenses hiding in the dependency tree, and a field guide to the formats and regulations driving software supply-chain work.
Open → Supply chain · SCAWhat FOSSA adds
I scanned this repo with a free generator, then connected it to FOSSA via GitHub. Same 512 dependencies, but FOSSA turns the copyleft into a failing license policy, finds 5 real CVEs with a one-click fix, and produces audit-ready reports. A live, real-data comparison.
Open → MarTech · Workers AILive personalization engine
A concept demo of the customer-engagement layer: choose a customer profile and a trigger event, and Workers AI generates a personalized message for email, SMS, and push, plus the matched segment and a rationale. Real edge inference, with a templated fallback so it never dies.
Open → MarTech · InteractiveJourney visualizer
A client-side visualization of lifecycle orchestration. Two sample journeys (cart abandonment, welcome series) render as an SVG node graph; a customer token animates the path and reroutes the moment you flip a branch condition. Pure edge-served SVG, no backend.
Open → MarTech · Solution designSolution design teardown
An end-to-end solution design for a fictional prospect (Trailhead Outfitters): current-stack discovery, data-in vs data-out gaps, before/after architecture, an integration plan, a four-journey blueprint, KPI baseline-to-target targets, and a phased rollout with a clean Professional Services handoff. The kind of pre-sales artifact a solutions engineer brings to a deal.
Open → Health · Workers AIWhat will this actually cost?
A working out-of-pocket cost estimator built on Cloudflare. The benefits summary is read in the browser, Workers AI extracts the cost-sharing rules as typed facts, and a plain deterministic engine computes what a course of care costs. It uses Workers AI, native rate limiting, the Assets binding, and a per-request nonce CSP via HTMLRewriter, with retention set to zero. A real product, not a mock.
Open → AI receptionist · Workers AIWhat can I help you with?
An AI receptionist I built on Cloudflare. One line of code drops a framework-free chat widget onto a business site. A multi-tenant Worker answers from the facts you give it with Workers AI, captures leads, and books straight into a Google Calendar. Each tenant is one KV config, so the config is the knowledge base. The same platform runs a voice agent on a Durable Object per call and an SMS channel.
Open → Firecrawl · Workers AIFirecrawl vs raw fetch
Same URL, two extractors side by side: a bare edge fetch vs Firecrawl clean markdown, then the grounded answer each produces.
Open → React · TypeScriptSecrets dashboard
A product-UI study of a secrets manager: environments, masked values, search, add and edit, leaked-key warning.
Open → Tokens · componentsDesign system
The color tokens, type scale, and components behind this site, documented in one place.
Open → Docs-as-codeSecrets at the Edge
A documentation sample: set, read, and verify runtime secrets without leaking them to the client.
