wrangler@4.129.1

Patch Changes #15502 8bbcb9f Thanks @dependabot ! - Update dependencies of "miniflare", "wrangler" The following dependency versions have been updated: Dependency From To @cloudflare/workers-types ^5.20260903.1 ^5.20260904.1 workerd 1.20260903.1 1.20260904.1 #15543 2b42d6f Thanks @dependabot ! - Update dependencies of "miniflare", "wrangler" The following dependency versions have been updated: Dependency From To @cloudflare/workers-types ^5.20260904.1 ^5.20260907.1 workerd 1.20260904.1 1.20260907.1 #15323 ea5634e Thanks @Sakshamm-Goyal ! - Prevent Wrangler from exiting when a process capturing its output closes the pipe. Wrangler now ignores broken-pipe errors from stdout and stderr while preserving the existing failure behavior for other output errors. #14001 c0c6504 Thanks @for-the-kidz ! - Update bundle size warning thresholds to use uncompressed size instead of gzip size The compressed script size limits (3 MiB free / 10 MiB paid) have been removed server-side in favor of a single 64 MiB uncompressed limit. The bundle size reporter now compares the uncompressed bundle size against this 64 MiB limit for its color-coded warnings, instead of comparing gzip size against the old 3 MiB compressed limit. #15499 ffc7efd Thanks @WillTaylorDev ! - Honor Workers Builds name overrides in wrangler preview Preview commands now target the Worker name supplied by Workers Builds instead of the name in local Wrangler configuration. This prevents preview builds from failing when the two names differ. #15252 682cd44 Thanks @GregoryCollett ! - wrangler dev no longer exits when a request to your Worker fails transiently Previously, a transient network failure on a single request — most commonly a request arriving just as an idle internal connection was closed, after roughly five seconds without traffic — could take down the whole dev server with an empty ✘ [ERROR] , leaving the port unbound until restarted. In CI test suites, one such failure caused every remaining test to fail with connection errors. wrangler dev now automatically retries the affected request if it is safe to repeat (GET and HEAD requests). If a request still fails, it fails individually — the error is logged with the request method and URL — and the dev server keeps serving.
