Workers Cache

HTTP response cache driven by deployment config, plus the tenant Cache API.

{
  "name": "cached",
  "main": "src/index.ts",
  "cache": { "enabled": true, "cross_version_cache": false },
  "exports": {
    "Admin": { "type": "worker", "cache": { "enabled": false } }
  }
}

cache.enabled turns on the default HTTP cache. cross_version_cache allows sharing across deployment versions; isolation is the default. exports.<name> may only override cache policy for a named Worker entrypoint. Automatic caching requires an explicit s-maxage or max-age.

The Cache API (caches.default / caches.open) is documented at Runtime APIs · Cache.
