Cloudflare has unveiled Forge, an open-source tool that automatically generates SDKs, command-line tools, documentation, and other interfaces based on API definitions. The platform, licensed under Apache 2.0, can be privately run and modified without incurring costs. Cloudflare's Dimitri Mitropoulos, Matt Taylor, and Samuel MacLeod revealed Forge during a blog post, stating that it is still in the early stages of development.
The company aims to make tools for APIs a crucial part of the internet and believes these tools should be accessible without relying on a SaaS product. In a similar move, Google partnered with API tooling company Speakeasy to open-source its OpenAPI code-generation suite under an AGPLv3 license. Both announcements come just days after Stainless, an SDK and MCP tooling company, was acquired by Anthropic and subsequently shut down its SDK generation service.
