Two Modern Web Guidance releases in one week?! v0.0.193 is out, teaching coding agents how to: • restrict outbound network connections (Connection-Allowlist) • validate origins without string parsing (Origin API) • verify email address ownership without OTPs • build draggable floating elements
By installing this CLI tool, your agent searches a database of best practices before writing a single line of code. The result is forms complete with proper autocomplete values, enterkeyhint attributes, and autofill CSS pseudo-classes.
Upgrade your agent today → goo.gle/mwg
Building web forms with an AI agent means you might be missing the progressive enhancements that boost conversions. Modern Web Guidance helps with this 🧵⬇️
PayPal recently tested the WebMCP proposed standard to streamline agentic commerce. By replacing more than 30 complex interface-interaction steps with 3 structured tool calls, they delivered a significantly faster and more consistent E2E checkout experience for AI assistants → goo.gle/4yXHc8E
Modern Web Guidance v0.0.192 is out. With it your coding agent now knows how to: • build SMS one-time-code forms that autofill (WebOTP) • make dark mode toggles that follow the OS • honor the OS text size setting • reduce INP and lazy-load video/audio • feature-detect CSS at-rules with @supports
After 7.5 months of tweaking, reviewing, and rewriting, the docs for Scroll-Triggered Animations have landed on @developer.mozilla.org (MDN)!

Congrats and thanks to Chris Mills and @estelle.bsky.social for their hard work and sweating the details on this!
Ensure your coding agent creates more accessible, progressively enhanced web forms, with Modern Web Guidance→ goo.gle/mwg
Discover how Modern Web Guidance skills help agents handle:
⌨️ Adding the Enter key hint attribute
🏷️ Correct autocomplete values
🎨 Autofill styling as a progressive enhancement
Stop adding !important to solve CSS specificity issues → goo.gle/4729nY4
Starting in Chrome 151, DevTools breaks down the exact specificity calculation right inside the Styles tab.
With the guidance, the agent: ✅ Decoupled entry and exit animations ✅ Avoided fragile percentage calculations ✅ Implemented fallbacks for browsers that don't support needed animation properties
Entry and exit animations in a card-based UI can break if card or screen dimensions change. Newer CSS animation properties can help, but not all browsers support them. We gave a coding agent the same prompt twice: once unaided, once with Modern Web Guidance installed 🧵

Loved scroll-driven animations? Meet their scroll-triggered sibling.
Instead of tying animation progress directly to the scrollbar, you can trigger full time-based CSS animations when crossing a scroll offset.
See how to build them with pure CSS → goo.gle/4dhcvmh
Build JS-free interactive carousels with new CSS APIs → goo.gle/47reBwt
Learn how to use scroll buttons, scroll markers, :target-current, and scroll-target-group to create built-in, responsive scrollers without writing a single line of JavaScript.
