Artifacts: Versioned storage that speaks Git

6 hours ago

Agents are driving a massive increase in code generation, overwhelming traditional source control systems built for humans.
Artifacts is a new distributed, versioned filesystem designed primarily for agents, compatible with Git and accessible via APIs.
It enables creating repositories on-demand for agent sessions, sandboxes, and forks, with support for REST and Workers APIs.
Artifacts leverages Git's data model for state tracking, time travel, and persistence, beyond just source control.
Built on Cloudflare's Durable Objects, R2, and KV, it uses a custom Zig-based Git implementation compiled to WebAssembly for efficiency.
ArtifactFS, an open-source filesystem driver, accelerates cloning large repos by hydrating files asynchronously, reducing startup time.
Planned features include expanded metrics, event subscriptions, SDKs for multiple languages, and search APIs.
Pricing is based on storage and operations, with free tiers and beta access starting privately before a public launch in early May 2026.
