Routing

Fetch https://developers.cloudflare.com/agents/api-reference/routing/ for complete documentation.

Default URL Pattern

/agents/{kebab-class-name}/{instance-name}

import { routeAgentRequest } from "agents";

export default {
  fetch: (req, env) =>
    routeAgentRequest(req, env) ?? new Response("Not found", { status: 404 })
};

Class	URL
Counter	/agents/counter/user-123
ChatRoom	/agents/chat-room/lobby
MyAgent	/agents/my-agent/default

Subpaths after the instance name (e.g. /agents/my-agent/default/api/data) route to onRequest.

Custom Routing with getAgentByName

import { getAgentByName } from "agents";

export default {
  async fetch(req, env) {
    const url = new URL(req.url);
    if (url.pathname.startsWith("/api/")) {
      const agent = getAgentByName(env.MyAgent, "singleton");
      return agent.fetch(req);
    }
    return routeAgentRequest(req, env);
  }
};

Options

routeAgentRequest(req, env, {
  cors: true,
  prefix: "/api/agents",
  locationHint: "enam",
  jurisdiction: "eu",
  props: { userId: "123" },
  onBeforeConnect: async (req) => { /* auth check */ },
  onBeforeRequest: async (req) => { /* auth check */ }
});

props are delivered to onStart(props) on first access.

Client Side

useAgent({
  agent: "MyAgent",
  name: "instance-1",
  host: "https://my-worker.workers.dev",
  basePath: "/api/agents",
  path: "/custom-subpath"
});

Common Mistakes

• Class name MyAgent becomes kebab my-agent in URLs — match exactly
• "Namespace not found" error = the class_name in wrangler doesn't match your exported class
• If sendIdentityOnConnect: false, the ready promise on the client may never resolve — use state sync instead
