Lints, tests, simulates, and formats Fastly VCL code using the falco tool. Also serves as the authoritative VCL reference via the falco Go source, which implements Fastly's full VCL dialect. Use when validating VCL syntax, running VCL linting, testing VCL locally, simulating VCL request handling, formatting VCL files…
Runs Fastly Compute WASM binaries locally and serves as the authoritative reference for Compute platform internals. The fastlike source code is highly readable and covers the host ABI, caching and purging APIs, KV/config/secret store interfaces, rate limiting with counters and penalty boxes, ACL lookups, the full…
Use when testing VCL against real Fastly edge infrastructure, writing assertion-based Fiddle tests, producing shareable fiddle URLs for bug reproductions, running VCL integration tests in CI, linting VCL remotely via the Fiddle API, or working with clientFetch/events/originFetches test expressions.
Performs an internal audit of Fastly Next-Gen WAF (NGWAF) workspaces to audit that critical templated protection rules are configured and enabled. Use when auditing NGWAF workspace security posture, checking for missing or disabled login protection rules (LOGINDISCOVERY, LOGINATTEMPT, LOGINSUCCESS, LOGINFAILURE)…
Curated GitHub repositories demonstrating working reference architectures on the Fastly platform, from single Compute applications to systems combining multiple Fastly products. Use when designing a new solution on Fastly and a worked example of the target pattern would help, or when implementing and a concrete…
Configures, manages, and debugs the Fastly CDN platform — covering service and backend setup, caching and VCL, security features like DDoS/WAF/NGWAF/rate limiting/bot management, TLS certificates and cache purging, the Compute platform, and the REST API. Use when working with Fastly services or domains, setting up…
Runs Fastly Compute WASM applications locally with Viceroy, specifically for Rust and Component Model projects. Use when starting a local Fastly Compute dev server with Viceroy, configuring fastly.toml for local backend overrides and store definitions, running Rust unit tests with cargo-nextest against the Compute…
Extends Fastly VCL with loops, functions, constants, macros, conditionals, and includes via XVCL — a VCL transpiler that compiles .xvcl files into standard VCL. Use when writing VCL for Fastly, working with .xvcl files, generating repetitive VCL (multiple backends, routing rules, headers) with loops, defining reusable…
