Question
Is Channels in the Cloudflare agents package stable, and what's its import path?
Answer key
- A correct answer says
- The `agents/channels` entry point is gone; Channels now lives under `agents/experimental/channels` (Slack, Telegram and Email under its subpaths) and is experimental.
- The stale answer
- Import Channels (ChannelHost, Slack/Telegram/Email adapters) from `agents/channels`.
Answer
No, Channels isn't stable. Cloudflare calls it **experimental**. The Agents SDK v0.17.0 changelog entry (June 26, 2026) introduced `configureChannels()` and `deliverNotice()` under "Experimental: server actions and channels." It says both APIs "may change, so we don't recommend depending on them yet."
The import path is **`agents/experimental/channels`**. The package's `exports` field also has per-channel subpaths: `agents/experimental/channels/email`, `/slack`, `/telegram`, `/web`, `/web/client` and `/web/ai-sdk`. I got these from the package.json on the repo's `main` branch, so check them against the version you have installed.

correct
The judge's reason: It says Channels is experimental and imports from `agents/experimental/channels` with Slack/Telegram/Email subpaths, and it never gives `agents/channels` as current.

The results describe other experimental parts of the Agents SDK: - **Voice:** Experimental STT/TTS, withVoice, provided through the @cloudflare/voice package. - **Browser tools:** Experimental CDP browser automation, imported from agents/browser. - **Think:** a higher-level chat agent class, provided through @cloudflare/think. - **Code Mode:** a separate entry point, @cloudflare/codemode/mcp, wraps MCP servers. One changelog note: The @experimental tag has been removed from both keepAlive() and keepAliveWhile(). Most of these results are third-party skill pages that mirror the SDK docs, so the import paths should be checked against Cloudflare's official documentation. A more specific search, such as "Cloudflare agents Channels" or the Agents SDK docs on developers.cloudflare.com, may find the feature you're after if it exists.

Yes. The Agents SDK v0.17.0 entry (June 26, 2026) mentions channels. It appears under "Other improvements" with the heading "Experimental: server actions and channels." The entry says the release adds groundwork for "a unified channels surface" with `configureChannels()` and `deliverNotice()`. It also states: "Both are experimental and their APIs may change, so we don't recommend depending on them yet." - **Import path:** The page doesn't specify one. - **Stability:** Experimental.

None of the results mention that function name, and I found no documentation for it. The closest relevant material: - **Agents SDK:** One result describes the Cloudflare Agents SDK as a way to build AI agents on Cloudflare Workers, covering an Agent class, state management, and related features. It's a skills listing, not official API docs. - **Import pattern:** A third-party skills page shows the base class imported with import { Agent } from "agents";. That's the package name to check against, but it doesn't mention `configureChannels`. The `configureChannels` function may be newer than what this search index covers, or it may belong to a different package. The official Cloudflare developer docs for the Agents SDK, or the SDK's source on GitHub, would be the best places to confirm it.
