New Model Available: Cloudflare: Clef Flash

Cloudflare released Clef Flash, a 9B-parameter open-source decision model fine-tuned from Qwen3.5-9B and served on Workers AI, which returns a calibrated probability for every allowed option of every typed question in a single forward pass rather than generating tokens. The model accepts text or structured JSON state plus a schema of typed questions and is intended for low-latency classification, routing, scoring and guardrails through the Decisions API. Cloudflare notes that Workers AI currently truncates long text state to roughly the first 2K tokens, so content beyond that is not read, while images are counted separately.

Clef-flash is the fast 9B member of Cloudflare's open-source Clef decision model family, a fine-tune of Qwen3.5-9B served on Workers AI. It turns a state (text or structured JSON) plus a schema of typed questions into decisions, returning a calibrated probability for every allowed option of every question in a single forward pass instead of generating tokens. Use it for low-latency classification, routing, scoring, and guardrails through the Decisions API. Note: Workers AI currently truncates long text state to roughly the first 2K tokens, so content beyond that is not read; images are counted separately.
