 # Changelog
 
+## v2.3.1
+### Cloudflare Worker Edition — Streaming Bypasses Cloudflare
+
+#### New: `worker.js` (Cloudflare Worker)
+- Full API running on Cloudflare's edge network
+- **Streaming endpoints work** — edge-to-edge requests bypass bot detection
+- Zero cold starts, 100K free requests/day

+- 15 endpoints: search, trending, info, episodes, watch, genres, random
+
+#### Why Workers Work
+```
+Vercel (datacenter) → miruro.to → Cloudflare blocks ❌
+Worker (edge) → miruro.to → Cloudflare trusts itself ✅
+```
+
+#### Deploy
+```bash
+npm install -g wrangler
+wrangler login
+wrangler deploy worker.js --name miruroapi
+```
+
+#### Files Changed
+- `worker.js` — Cloudflare Worker implementation (885 lines)
+- `README.md` — Added Worker deployment section, updated troubleshooting
+- `docs/architecture.md` — Added Worker architecture section

+### ⚡ Cloudflare Worker (Streaming Works!)
+
+> **Streaming endpoints work on Workers** — requests to Miruro bypass Cloudflare bot detection because Workers run on Cloudflare's edge network (edge-to-edge traffic is trusted).

+# Install wrangler CLI
+npm install -g wrangler

+| npm deps | Yes | No (native fetch) |

+## Cloudflare Worker Architecture (v2.3.1)
+
+The Worker edition (`worker.js`) runs the same API on Cloudflare's edge network. Key difference: **streaming endpoints work** because edge-to-edge requests bypass Cloudflare bot detection.
+
+### Why Workers Work
+
+```
+Vercel (datacenter IP) → miruro.to → Cloudflare WAF → 403 Blocked
+Cloudflare Worker (edge) → miruro.to → Cloudflare internal network → 200 OK
+```
+
+### Worker Runtime Differences
+
+| Feature | Express (Node.js) | Cloudflare Worker |
+|---------|-------------------|-------------------|
+| HTTP client | axios | native fetch |
+| Decompression | zlib (Node.js) | DecompressionStream (Web API) |
+| Caching | in-memory Map | Workers KV (optional) |
+| npm packages | Yes | No (bundle only) |
+| Cold starts | ~500ms | Zero |
+| CPU limit | None | 10ms (free) / 30s (paid) |
+
+### Worker Endpoints (15)
+
+| Endpoint | Description |
+|----------|-------------|
+| `GET /api/health` | System health check |
+| `GET /api/search?query=` | Full-text anime search |
+| `GET /api/suggestions?query=` | Autocomplete suggestions |
+| `GET /api/filter?genre=` | Advanced filter |
+| `GET /api/trending` | Trending anime |
+| `GET /api/popular` | Most popular |
+| `GET /api/top` | Top scored |
+| `GET /api/random` | Random anime |
+| `GET /api/info/:id` | Full anime info |
+| `GET /api/anime/:id/characters` | Characters + voice actors |
+| `GET /api/anime/:id/relations` | Related anime |
+| `GET /api/genres` | All genres |
+| `GET /api/episodes/:id` | Episode list (pipe) |
+| `GET /api/watch/:provider/:anilistId/:category/:slug` | Streaming sources (pipe) |
