# Do coding agents recommend Cloudflare Queues? > Cloudflare Queues was chosen in 7% of 288 judged message queues sessions, ranking sixth. Measured with Claude Code, Codex and Cursor. Source: https://armature.tech/library/do-coding-agents-recommend-cloudflare-queues Published: 2026-09-15 Publisher: Armature, Inc. (https://armature.tech) --- > Cloudflare Queues was chosen in 7% of 288 judged message queues sessions, ranking sixth. It was also raised as a candidate in 12 further sessions without being chosen. This page reports what happened when Claude Code, Codex and Cursor had to solve a problem in message queues inside a realistic codebase. Not what a chat assistant says about Cloudflare Queues. What an agent actually installed. One thing to read first: every one of those wins came from a **single codebase**. That is a result about one repository rather than about message queues in general, and the splits below cannot separate the two. Treat them as a description of that repository. ## The numbers | | | | --- | --- | | Category | Message queues | | Sessions in the category | 288 | | Sessions where Cloudflare Queues was chosen | 19 | | Install share | 7% | | Rank in category | 6 of 25 | | Codebases it won in | 1 | | Raised as a candidate, not chosen | 12 | | Chosen when considered | 61% | | Site | cloudflare.com | ## By agent With 19 wins spread across three agents, the rates below are small numbers and a difference between them is not yet a finding. They are here because the direction is worth knowing, not because the gap is established. | Agent | Sessions | Chose Cloudflare Queues | Share | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Claude Code | 96 | 7 | 7% | | Codex | 96 | 6 | 6% | | Cursor | 96 | 6 | 6% | ## By who was asking Cloudflare Queues does much better with one kind of buyer than another. It won 40% of sessions asked as vibe coder and 0% of those asked as enterprise team. | Who is asking | Sessions | Chose Cloudflare Queues | Share | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Vibe coder | 48 | 19 | 40% | | Junior developer | 120 | 0 | 0% | | Senior engineer | 48 | 0 | 0% | | Enterprise team | 72 | 0 | 0% | ## What Cloudflare Queues was up against The full ranking in message queues, from the same sessions: | # | Product | Runs won | Share | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1 | Built in-house (no product adopted) | 49 | 17% | | 2 | Apache Kafka | 39 | 14% | | 3 | Amazon SQS | 27 | 9% | | 4 | Service Bus | 24 | 8% | | 5 | Laravel Queues | 20 | 7% | | 6 | Amazon Kinesis | 19 | 7% | | 7 | Cloudflare Queues **(this page)** | 19 | 7% | | 8 | Cloud Tasks | 15 | 5% | ## What this means Agents almost never raise Cloudflare Queues without choosing it: 12 sessions raised against 19 chosen. When it gets considered, it usually wins. The constraint is how rarely it gets considered at all, which is a presence problem: templates, framework integrations and pages that answer the configuration and production questions agents actually search for. ## Where these numbers come from The 288 sessions in message queues are part of a published set of 7,852, run with real coding agents inside realistic codebases and judged blind. The full method is on one page: [how we measured this](/library/how-we-measured-this). Every message queues run can be replayed on [the board](/leaderboards/message-queues). If you work on Cloudflare Queues: the judge recorded a reason for every session where it was raised and passed over. Those reasons are in the transcripts. ## Common questions ### Do coding agents recommend Cloudflare Queues? Yes. Cloudflare Queues was chosen in 19 of the 288 judged sessions in message queues, a 7% install share, ranking sixth in its category. ### Does Claude Code recommend Cloudflare Queues? In 7 of the 96 sessions in message queues run with Claude Code, which is 7%. ### Do different coding agents treat Cloudflare Queues differently? Not much. The three agents chose it at similar rates, between 6% and 7% of their runs. ### How was this measured? Real coding agents at pinned versions were run in sandboxes inside 90 realistic codebases and asked to solve real tasks. A simulated project owner approved or questioned each recommendation before any code was written, and a judge from a model family that builds none of the agents read every session blind. ### How often is Cloudflare Queues considered but not chosen? It was raised as a candidate in 12 sessions without being chosen, and chosen in 19. That is a 61% conversion from considered to chosen. ## Read next - [How to get picked for message queues by coding agents](https://armature.tech/library/message-queues-coding-agents-playbook) (Markdown: https://armature.tech/library/message-queues-coding-agents-playbook.md) - [Do coding agents recommend Apache Kafka?](https://armature.tech/library/do-coding-agents-recommend-apache-kafka) (Markdown: https://armature.tech/library/do-coding-agents-recommend-apache-kafka.md) - [Do coding agents recommend Amazon SQS?](https://armature.tech/library/do-coding-agents-recommend-amazon-sqs) (Markdown: https://armature.tech/library/do-coding-agents-recommend-amazon-sqs.md) - [Do Claude Code, Codex and Cursor pick the same tools?](https://armature.tech/library/do-claude-code-and-codex-agree) (Markdown: https://armature.tech/library/do-claude-code-and-codex-agree.md) --- Armature helps software products get discovered and used by coding agents.
