In this clip from This Week in NET, Steve Faulkner explains why AI-assisted rebuilds won’t stop at vinext — and why open source projects may soon be rewritten differently.

In this episode of This Week in NET, host João Tomé is joined by Matt Curry to break down Code Mode: a way to give AI agents access to the entire Cloudflare API (2,500+ endpoints) using two tools and roughly ~1,000 tokens of context.

The result is massive compression, lower cost, and better performance.
