The Agent Access Model
Cloudflare, Wednesday, August 5th, 2026
Cloudflare proposes the Agent Access Model to secure task-scoped agents through identity brokering and continuous mediation.
Cloudflare has published the Agent Access Model, a proposed architecture for securing task-scoped AI agents.
The model relies on strict identity brokering so that agents never hold long-lived credentials of their own. Continuous mediation means each action is evaluated as it happens rather than authorized once at session start.
Stateful trust allows the system to account for what an agent has already done when deciding what it may do next.
