No SLA was found, three models moved to paid-only access on 28 July 2026 with no notice, and several docs pages still use a model retired in May.\n\n**OpenAI API.** Official OpenAPI document and an llms.txt index. Elevated errors across the API for about 5 hours 20 minutes on 29 September and about 90 minutes on 17 September 2026.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Cloudflare Workers AI\n\n1. Check the model page before calling. Seven models need Workers Paid or AI Gateway credits and return 403 with code 5035 on the Free plan\n2. Read the internal code on a 429. 3036 means the day's 10,000 free neurons are spent until 00:00 UTC, 3040 means capacity, so retry later\n3. Set `options.rejectIfBusy` to fail fast, or add `?queueRequest=true` for the batch route when the answer can wait\n4. Send the same `x-session-affinity` value on every turn of a session to reach the prefix cache and the cached-input price\n5. Keep paid frontier models under 20 requests a minute per model, or 50 with prepaid AI Gateway credits\n\n### OpenAI API\n\n1. Build on the Responses API. Astra calls tools only there\n2. Use `gpt-6-luna` for routing and extraction and `gpt-6.1-sol` for most work. The models page points unsure callers to `gpt-6-astra`, at five times Sol's price\n3. Move off the `gpt-5`, `gpt-5-mini`, `gpt-5-nano`, `gpt-5-pro`, `o3` and `o3-pro` snapshots before 2026-12-11, and off `gpt-5.1`, `gpt-5.3-codex` and `gpt-5.4-nano` before 2027-04-01\n4. Treat 429 `slow_down` as a ramp limit and 503 `server_is_overloaded` as a retry, and follow `Retry-After` when it's sent\n5. Prompts over 272K tokens cost double on input. Trim before you pay for it\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Cloudflare Workers AI or OpenAI API?\n\nOpenAI API scores 83.3 (A) on agent readiness against Cloudflare Workers AI's 68.3 (B), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories. Cloudflare Workers AI leads on payments \u0026 pricing.\n\n### Do Cloudflare Workers AI and OpenAI API need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Cloudflare Workers AI and OpenAI API without installing anything?\n\nYes. Cloudflare Workers AI has a hosted endpoint at https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/{account_id}/ai and OpenAI API at https://api.openai.com/v1.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/cloudflare-workers-ai-vs-openai-api.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/cloudflare-workers-ai-vs-openai-api.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"cloudflare-workers-ai\", \"b\": \"openai-api\"}`.
