Cloudflare Mesh routes agent traffic through private networks

Summary

Agents now need secure access to private infrastructure (databases, staging APIs, home services) without exposing them publicly or requiring per-resource tunnel configuration. Mesh eliminates the credential-leakage and visibility gaps that plague traditional private network tools for autonomous workloads.
