Building a more accessible GitHub CLI
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd"> At GitHub, we’re committed to making our tools truly accessible for every developer, regardless of ability or toolset. The command line interface (CLI) is a vital part of the developer experience, and the GitHub CLI is our product that brings the power of GitHub to your terminal. When it comes to accessibility, the terminal is fundamentally different from a web browser or a graphical user interface, with a lineage that predates the web itself. While standards like the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) provide a clear path for making web and graphical applications accessible, there is no equivalent, comprehensive standard for the terminal and CLIs. The W3C offers some high-level guidance for non-web software, but it stops short of prescribing concrete techniques, leaving much open to interpretation and innovation. ...

MCP Demo Day: How 10 leading AI companies built MCP servers on Cloudflare
Today, we're excited to collaborate with Anthropic, Asana, Atlassian, Block, Intercom, Linear, PayPal, Sentry, Stripe, and Webflow to bring a whole new set of remote MCP servers, all built on Cloudflare, to enable Claude users to manage projects, generate invoices, query databases, and even deploy full stack applications — without ever leaving the chat interface. Since Anthropic’s introduction of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) in November, there’s been more and more excitement about it, and it seems like a new MCP server is being released nearly every day. And for good reason! MCP has been the missing piece to make AI agents a reality, and helped define how AI agents interact with tools to take actions and get additional context. ...
Synchronous vs Asynchronous Communication: When to Use What?
A system's usefulness depends heavily on its ability to communicate with other systems. That’s true whether it’s a pair of microservices exchanging user data, a mobile app fetching catalog details, or a distributed pipeline pushing events through a queue. At some point, every system has to make a call: Should this interaction happen synchronously or asynchronously? That question surfaces everywhere: sometimes explicitly in design documents, sometimes buried in architectural decisions that later appear as latency issues, cascading failures, or observability blind spots. It affects how APIs are designed, how systems scale, and how gracefully they degrade when things break. ...
Taking the plunge: Why Meta is laying the world’s longest subsea cable
Meta develops infrastructure all across the globe to transport information and content for the billions of people using our services around the world. At the core of this infrastructure are aggregation points – like data centers – and the digital cables that connect them. Subsea cables – the unseen digital highways of the internet – are critical for Meta to serve people wherever they are in the world. In fact, more than 95% of the world’s intercontinental traffic goes through subsea cables. ...

Bringing streamable HTTP transport and Python language support to MCP servers
We’re continuing to make it easier for developers to bring their services into the AI ecosystem with the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Today, we’re announcing two new capabilities: Streamable HTTP Transport: The Agents SDK now supports the new Streamable HTTP transport, allowing you to future-proof your MCP server. Our implementation allows your MCP server to simultaneously handle both the new Streamable HTTP transport and the existing SSE transport, maintaining backward compatibility with all remote MCP clients. ...
